It’s not uncommon that an animal raised with different animal species starts behaving like them. Sven the bull was raised with six dogs, and very often, he acts like one.

“He is incredibly intelligent, and he loves treats and being brushed,” Nicole Fredericks, Sven’s owner - a vet tech and wildlife rehabber, told the reporters. “He loves cuddles, but they have to be on his terms.”

Sven lives on 9 acres farm with his wonderful big rescue family, which includes cats, dogs, goats, pigs, chickens, pigeons, and a parrot. With so many animals around, things can unquestionably get a little hectic sometimes.

Sven loves to add his personal touch to this chaos sneaking inside the house whenever he sees an opportunity.

Sven isn't allowed to go inside because he can slip on the floor tiles and get hurt. So, he and his siblings must stay outside for their own safety. But every once in a while, Sven likes to test his luck.

"Anytime the door is open longer than a few minutes, he will make a break for it," Fredericks says. "Cows are super, super curious animals (worse than cats), and when he was a baby, he was sick for a few days and lived in my laundry room for a while, so he was used to being inside. He rarely makes it inside anymore because I make sure to lock the doorknob.".

In this video, Fredericks was in the house when she suddenly realized she forgot to close the door all the way. She knew what was about to happen and even did a little countdown. Within seconds, Sven casually walked in and started his tour around the house.

Fortunately, Sven adores treats, so Fredericks had no trouble to lure him outside again. It’s highly unlikely this will be the last time Sven tries to get into the house. After all, curiosity and determination are his main traits.

“I usually laugh if he makes it inside and just grab some treats to bribe him back outside before any damage is done,” Fredericks says. “Cows are very food-motivated, so he normally walks right out for a cookie. He did get in a few months ago and made it all the way to my bedroom and woke me up.”

The house rules may say that Sven isn’t allowed in the house, but he doesn’t seem to care too much about them. He will keep trying indefinitely, and Fredericks will keep on giggling and luring him out again with treats. But she doesn’t really mind because she loves Sven so much.
