Ingo comes from a family of police dogs. Police dogs have a tough reputation, but they’re also compassionate and fun-loving. In Tanja’s pictures, it sometimes looks like Ingo is whispering secrets to Poldi.
Poldi is short for “Napoleon.” The name fits this sweet little owl. Poldi needs a lot of protection and care because he hatched later than his owl siblings. Ingo is perfectly suited for the job. You can see how safe Poldi feels around his larger friend.
Poldi often snuggles up to Ingo while he dozes nearby. In one funny picture, Ingo wears glasses and “reads” a dictionary to Poldi. Tanja takes a lot of other animal pictures, but Ingo and Poldi are two of her biggest stars. They’re just too cute.
