Bad dog! No bisquit! (the funny and horrifying thing is that I know my dogs would have done the exact same thing)

Isaw this yesterday. The headline was "Dog destroys Elvis' teddy bear." That made me open the link. What's wierd is that you'd think they'd choose a guard dog who doesn't eat stuffed animals, which is what dogs do, by default.

Someone wasn't really thinking this through very well.

Maybee they could not get a guard Wolverine.

Bad barney Ms. Poo would have done the same thing.. she loves to terrorize stuffed animals...who needs dog toys.

At times nature can be cruel, but there is also a raw beauty, and even a certain justice manifested within that cruelty. The alligator, one of the oldest and ultimate predators, normally considered the "apex predator" in it's natural ecosystem, can still fall victim to implemented 'team work' strategy, made possible due to the tight knit social structure and "survival of the fittest pack mentality", bred into the canines over the last several hundreds of years by natural selection. See the remarkable photograph below, courtesy of Nature Magazine. Note that the Alpha dog has a muzzle hold on the gator preventing it from breathing, while the remainder of the pack prevents the beast from rolling. Caution: not for the squeamish!

I just think it's funny that anyone thought having a dog guard a stuffed animal collection was a good idea! Even the dogs that don't actually shred stuffed toys carry them around, slobber all over them, and roll on them - that can't be good for the resale value. And now, I must clean up the debris from the great paper towel roll massacre. The paper towels put up a good fight, but ultimately they were no match for that fanged beast we call dog.

I saw it under the headline "Grizzly Bear Attack", I forget where. I laughed when I opened it thinking a grizzly attacked someone. Boy it was a grizzly attack ... on bears!

As Barney's attorney, I just want to say that the allegations are completely unjustified. This was not the great teddy bear massacre! It was the great teddy bear suicide. Barney tried his best to stop the carnage, but they just kept ripping themselves apart. Why does everyone automatically blame the dog?
