Meet MacGyver, Instagram’s Favorite Dog Sized Lizard
-
MacGyver is a dog-sized Argentine Red Tegu lizard that thinks he’s a dog
-
It is house trained just like a puppy
It can come when called, sleeps in its owner's bed and even leash trained
-
His Owners, Scott, a 34-year-old software developer and Ice, a 38-year-old student, from San Diego decided they wanted a different type of pet - so they adopted MacGyver 5 years ago
-
He was tiny when they first brought him home
-
But quickly grew bigger
-
And bigger
-
And is now the size of a small dog
-
Just like any puppy, he is expert at two things: eating...
-
and snuggling
-
MacGyver is super famous
His owners have been documenting his life online and gathered 140K followers on Instagram
-
They hope these videos will convince people to give lizard a second chance as pets
