Default Animal idioms

hi,


Let's play and learn!

I opened this topic for each of us to write an idiom which contains a name of an animal.( cat, dog, lion, horse, lizard etc) The idiom MUST be explained by the one who posts it! Please, illustrate your idiom with an example.

Mine is the following:

"dark horse" - a person who hides their feelings, plans, activities, etc

e.g.

You are a dark house! I had no idea you could play the piano so well.


best wishes,

Madox
