“It's really funny. You've seen it, but this picture of him holding court at his dinner table with a cigar in his mouth and the miniature donkey behind him on the right side and the miniature pony on the left side and the pig right below his feet eating, and then the little chihuahua on his lap, and then the massive 180 pound Malamute husky over there next to the horse,” said Patrick during the interview. 

Patrick also said that his father dotes on his pets. 

"It's just like they have all of them surrounding Arnold. He has certain meals, he has the oatmeal cookies, the homemade oatmeal cookies that are good for the horses. He's got special meals for the dog. He's got the soup that the pig loves. It's just it's out of a movie. It really is,” said the 31-year-old actor.
