This is how Bulls should be treated. Not being taunted in a ring!

Someone should write a children's book about this and call it The Bull and the Ball!

My grandmother had 4 cows. And they're allowed to roam the hills in the morning. They form a gang with the neighbors cows, graze the hills and come back home together everyday. They're so smart. They can remember the way home. And when they see a new person like me at home they always charge as though trying to protect the house. They're amazing.

As an animal lover my heart broke from the look of devastation on his face when the ball popped lol he looked so defeated lol

I've never seen a bull be so happy and goofy like that. He actually jumps and skips with excitement and that is just the coolest to me. P.S. when they brought out the big ball he literally went 😮😯😲😱 and my heart melted lol

He’s a soccer player like his mom! 😊

Props to Laura's family, who not only welcomed Spud but tolerate his playfulness while they're working. I love seeing him kick up his heels with pure joy!

The fact she can ride him and put a hat on him is heartwarming.

This was so cute to watch. A Bull & His soccer player Mommy. So sweet.

Spud is the biggest puppy dog ever , he could have been named Clifford for being such a big puppy dog.

That's one happy boy!! I love how when she calls for him, he literally jumps up and peeks around the corner!! I just love his curly head!!

He's just adorable! I wish all bulls were treated like this.

This is heartwarming..turned my bad day into a good one.

We had a Hereford bull (same as this one) named Mike that was just as playful. He was just a BIG baby that loved to have his head scratched and hang out with people...but, you had to be careful! He was so big that he could hurt you without meaning to.

Honestly seeing a bull get this much enjoyment out of a ball is something I never thought I’d see. I am content.

Spud is adorable. He is just a playful kid. And this young woman is amazing. I wish them both many more birthday celebrations together.

He is a giant bull-puppy! A wonderful example of how sentient animals are and how they blossom and enjoy life when treated with love. Thank you for sharing Spud with us!

He is absolutely adorable ❤ Can't get over his face when she gave Sud the huge ball " what the he'll is that?"!🤣

Never knew bulls can be like this. This is so weird and new and oddly wholesome with a side of unconditional joy.

You can see the personality in his eyes and the happiness he has with the ball. All animals have personality and should be treated with love and respect.

My grandfather had a dairy farm, never saw a bull act so playfully. Wonderful video!😃😃😃😃

So great to see bulls get to live out thier lives. This big guy is adorable, all that muscle and love just blows you over, I hope the best for him and his Moo-m, many more bday photos to come

There needs to be more people in the world like you! Thank you so much for helping him and giving me something to smile about. Bulls should always be treated with respect/love... he's just like a dog.

I love him. He's giant, beautiful and magestic. Please dear lord...and all people reading this...have mercy on these poor souls. Bulls and cows go through so much on this planet...it hurts my heart to think about the things I've seen. Please be kind and have compassion and mercy towards them. Thank you. ❤🙏

I love the heart-warming stories on "The Dodo" but this story really struck a chord. Thank you Laura and Spud for a fantastic story.

Thats a big happy bull.

Aww, he's so happy! You can see the joy and love in his eyes. It was so sad when that ball popped, it's good to know he'll always have another ball.

God bless you, girl! You saved his life and gave him a joyful one. God bless you; seriously, God bless you.

"You don't have to be what you're expected to be in life."👍

They are meant to be soulmates! Spud makes a wonderful companion! Beautiful video!

What a sweetheart ❤️ all animals no matter how big or small deserve to be treated with respect and kindness.

His happiness is very apparent. I have an affinity of bulls, maybe its the Taurus in me and this is exactly how they should live. Free!!

What an amazing family to let her take him in. Glad Spud was rescued ❤️

I was a little bit nervous when my daughter came back home from college with a cat...Spud is a very handsome man, and he knows that he’s loved!

I love Spud curly fur, he so cute! His human, Laura is amazing!

When I was 7 I loved visiting this bull named Goody at the Ottawa central farm. I returned to study and at 19 I was so happy to see him again. He was the same breed of bull as Spud. Handsome boys. Rest in Peace Goody, gentle giant and friend to many~

What he needs is the kind of ball that's made for zoo animals like polar bears & big cats.

Thank you for your kindness ❤️ There are so many people who are blind to the fact that cows and pigs are just as amazing and affectionate and want to live just as badly as dogs and cats. Thank you for not being one of those people.

I cannot stop smiling! He is adorable and I love that he loves rolling balls around! It's so cute

What a lovely woman. What an incredible bull. He's goofy af.

Most bulls are like this, especially when neutered. Cows and Bulls are happy, sweet, goofy, giant dogs that just want to enjoy like and love. I hope people seeing this will realize your food could have had a life like Spudley, if you went the compassionate route.

Someone’s parents love them very much!

He was always supposed to be with the girl! They are so happy together it makes my heart warmer

OK, I've watched thousands of animal videos on you tube over many years, but this might be my favorite of all! Always loved all animals, but especially cows(bull in this case)! They are just like dogs when treated well! Thanks to this awesome girl who saved his life and brought him home to live out a fun filled life!! Only thing better is if he had a(animal) companion to hang out with since humans can't be around 24/7???🙏🙏🙏

I watch all these videos but I never comment. But I couldn't be more impressed by someone's compassion and sacrifice. It takes a special person!

What a wonderful story. My parents had polled Hereford bulls and cows when I was growing up. They are such beautiful animals. Our bulls were never overly aggressive. So glad you have abonded relationship with Spud.

This could be a series: "Adventures with Spud"!!! His energy is infectious and your presentation is spot on!

Oh my goodness, Spudley is the most cuddly-bear ever - I just can't even! When he runs and jumps after his ball I about fell out of my chair with the cute - I just want to give him a squish. Thank you wonderful moo-m for taking Spud home and giving him his best life 😊

Lol his face when the ball popped 😂 sad bull hours

Never thought a bull could be so friendly and happy 😊

OH MY GOD!!!! My mom is gonna LOVE this video! She LOVES cows! Seriously!! My entire life I have seen decorations and clothes with cows on them! She has said my entire life if she could find a mini cow she would get it in a heartbeat. We have always had dogs and she especially loves the ones who have had a cow-like pattern coat. I’m hoping one day I can give her the miniature cow she has always wanted. 🤞🏻😬

Omg the way he dances around with joy. He is soooooo precious. I would snuggle him so hard.

He does not act like a "bull" at all. He is a big puppy! 💞💞💞

Animals raised with love, care and attention become docile and loving. Animals give back what they get.

This is just so heartwarming to watch. I'm so happy you gave him something he can look forward to. He's clearly more happier with you in comparison to the teaching classes. It's so good to see him jump in joy and play around. More power to you and spud

This is awesome and it shows how animals will react to kindness and love ! He's doing his best to show the love he has for his human , great story, great Lady and an awesome Bull ! God bless you both !

His eyes are so gorgeous! 😍

Watching this video was like the story Ferdinand actually came to life. Spud seems like such a cute companion to have around, I'm sure the rest of his life will be spent in love.

Never seen a bull this happy. We never get to see so much vigor because they are considered livestock and not living breathing creatures. Most livestock owners consider it plenty to just give livestock room to walk around and graze on grass. But to see a livestock interacting with toys and responsive to calls from owner without concern for food or treats...is truly unheard of.

My mother has 4 rescue bulls/cows. They are named Russell, Missy, Stephanie and Brian. She got them from the cattle farmer next door. Russell was the first, she found him abandoned on the fence line during a winter storm. He was a few hours old and the size of a large dog. She loaded him into her trailer and took him back to the stable. He’s now a massive steer, like HUGE. The farmer turned up a few weeks later and she thought he was going to ask for him back. She was devastated. She opened the door and the farmer goes “I heard you’ve got one of my abandoned calves… want to take this one too?” And there was Stephanie. And so, she just kept taking them every time he’d bring her a calf. My family moved to a property and she now lives in peace with her little herd. They have been a huge comfort to her, they certainly have personalities and emotions just like that of people.

I would love for him to have monthly ball donations.

Thank you for saving his life! You gave him a future and a happy one! Let’s all do something for an animal especially farm animals that are mistreated and abused everyday!!

Please, tell me more about a college course where your tasked with raising an animal. I think the compassion needed for that is worth at least 10 college credits.

Laura - thank you for giving Spud a future !! He is just a big old puppy dog, so cute and fun.

He is a over grown puppy. Spud is so damn cute. He has a great moo-ma

Spud and his balls. You just can’t get any happier than him. Too cute.

I now see bulls as friendly loving animals, but in the wrong hands or mating they can and will given the chance harm us badly but at our own faults. Spud is so loving I could play with him all day. Thank you for the great video.

Spudley would have a grand old time at the beach! What a terrific story. Animals can teach us so very much.

Spudley is cool and so are you and your parents for caring and loving him so well. Bravo‼️👏🏼

Living proof that any animal can be a sweet and lovely pet. They all have the capacity, if given the chance.

Spud would be perfect for any company that wants to test the durability of their products. Like experimenting with a new more durable ball. Just send him free samples to test and have the owner make a video on him with the ball documenting how it holds up

Such beautiful animals, if only they could all be so happy and loved.

He's f-ing adorable!! 💞

Cows and bulls are like gras puppy's just a little larger.

Spud is such a beautiful bully boy! Your a wonderful bully Mom! Great video, thanks for sharing him with us!

This is probably the best channel to watch when you're feeling down. Love, compassion, understanding all on full display...The world needs to learn more of this.

OH! To be young again! What an adorable little bull! I think it's just wonderful when people and their pets actually have a connection with each other and PLAY! I love the Dodo!!

such a wonderful woman

Cows are basically like giant dogs. So goofy and derpy once they are comfortable with you.

That is the happiest, friendliest bull I have ever seen, and Its just adorable

Boy and his toys! May he remain young at heart his whole life.

How darling are they!!!

I remember riding on their back when I was kid. They're so kind animals

I’ve always thought of cows out in the fields eating, sleeping and pooping but to see that bull enjoying the simple things in life, living life to the fullest, amazing!

For four minutes everything is right with the world. Thank you for bringing joy and happiness with a sprinkle of love we sure need it 💕 🙏 🇺🇦

What a lovely woman and what AMAZING parents. Sure hun, you can bring a bull home. Why not?!! Love it.

I love the innocent look in his eyes 👀.

Omg!!!! I love how she saved him from his demise 😔.... Spudley is sooo cute and who needs a friend when you have a ball. This makes me sad because not every cow gets to experience this life because they are just viewed as cows and food, but I can tell you also first hand they all have personalities his was just able to shine. I love it

What a happy bull, thank you for saving him!

Never seen such a happy jumpy bull!

he is the happiest animal i've seen, congrats to you!

Awe, Ilove his curly hair!!!! Hes just the happiest bull ever!!! Much love from Texas

he is so so cute and adorable

This is absolutely wonderful to see. What a human can do a animal and bring tha best out of them .

This is how bulls are, just playful cuddly guys. Cute name, Spudley. He’s got a great home and family, great people. God bless them

Wish all animal get the love they deserve 🥺

Animals are only aggressive and standoffish when their environments make them that way. Spud, and every other animal featured on this channel, is proof of that. Thank you for being such a wonderful Moom 💖

Spud’s a happy boy, living his best life! Thank you!

This is amazing to see a connection between a human and a steer.

#1.5K this story was amazing Spud is so lucky to have an owner like you Laura he reminds me of the bull from the movie Ferdinand not aggressive at all but a sweetheart ❤️❤️❤️
