I don't have an ox. I nearly voted ox because I was born in Oxford.

I don't have a giraffe. I nearly voted giraffe because Frankie Boyle said if you cut one open you find a horse with a periscope.

I don't have a raccoon. I nearly voted raccoon because Michael seems like a nice and eccentric guy.

I voted dog. I voted dog.

No, it's a fiendishly-cryptic rebus style puzzle which you must somehow decypher to discover what breed my dog is.

Okay well while I'm working on that you will need to vote for "Dog" again*, as "Goose" has suddenly goosestepped in and reset the poll.

*Unless of course Michael's sympathy tactics have broken through your hard shell.

Never eaten any of them (not even goose!), but I presume ox tastes like beef.

I just saw a bit of QI on Dave, and they said that pandas were always thought to be raccoons, but in 1996 it was discovered they were bears.
