Handedness is actually something almost all animals have. From the studies I've read, rather than the advantage ambidexterity is in games, it's actually a weakness in surviving. Having a dominant preference side means that when you need to move reflexively, your body automatically goes in that direction instead of pausing to decide which way is better. The fraction of a second this saves can be a lifesaver when a big predator is pouncing at you.

Ah, yes, pugs - animals so ugly that they're cute.
They're adorable abominations of nature, and also conclusive proof of why man should not play god.
A sheep named Baarack was found in a forested area near Melbourne, Australia, weighed down by over 75 pounds of wool it had accumulated and called a local animal rescue and sanctuary organization to... rescue and provide sanctuary to said sheep. They also gave him a proper shearing. Seventy eight pounds of wool was sheared off, still shy of the world record of ninty pounds and now after a period of rest, Baarack will undoubtedly look as adorable as the other sheep pictured in the article.
