Steven Tyler's Surprising Childhood Pet

Steven Tyler loves animals, but it seems that he has moved on from raccoons to dogs. During an appearance on the show "Late Night With Seth Meyers," Tyler stopped the interview and whistled to his two dogs — Butch Cassidy and Sundance Kid — to join him in front of the camera, as reported by I Love Classic Rock. The two pets immediately went to him and settled down while he did his interview. He also revealed that he always traveled with his dogs. "One is a teacup I put in my pocket, And the other one I put in a sling over my shoulder, and I walk around, and it's the cutest f*****g thing on the planet" (via People).

Tyler also said he gives his dogs lots of love and often talks to them. "They sleep right next to my neck." In one Instagram post, the singer can be seen blowing into a didgeridoo, as he attempted to entertain his two dogs, who were quietly sitting on a couch.
