Dogs Do The Darnedest Things

A Bull Mastiff named Henry, who was the “star pupil” of a dog training TV show in West Bromwich, England lost that distinction when he savagely attacked a dachshund named Bruno.

Henry was being filmed for a follow up to his success on the BBC “Three show Dog Borstal.” Henry saw Bruno in the audience, grabbed him by the neck and shook him like a ragdoll. Bruno had to have 16 stitches for the deep gashes that were inflicted.

The crew managed to fend off Henry and his owner, Karen Reid was ordered to pay £250 compensation and keep her dog muzzled in public.

Speaking of Mastiffs…

A man bit off more than he could chew when he tried to steal 2 Thibetan mastiffs in Tianjin, China after he found out that they were very valuable. Tibetan mastiffs are considered one of the oldest, rarest and fiercest dog breeds and were first tamed by humans 6,000 years ago.

The man tried to lure the 2 dogs with meat - which they ignored. They had him cornered in their backyard for 4 hours before the dog’s owner found the man cowering up against a brick wall.

Anyone who knows what a Mastiff is knows that they are huge dogs! How he expected to carry out two dogs that may’ve outweighed him is beyond me. He’s lucky the dog’s didn’t tear him apart!

An 18 year old drunk man driving his Camaro down the wrong side of the road in Durham, NC drove his car into a fence. The yard housed 4 dogs. So when the drunk man ran off, he stepped in dog shi* - er poop.

The cops saw the shoe print in the pile & followed a stinky trail down the road. They saw a van swerving toward them & had the driver get out. They smelled alcohol on his breath & saw dog poop on his shoes.

The young man was charged with driving while impaired, drinking underage and released on $1,500 bail. He could not be reached for comment.

Leona Helmsley’s dog Trouble is now in hiding due to kidnapping & extortion threats as a result of the $12 million inheritance left to her.

The threats forced concerned friends to whisk her away on a private jet under a new identity and take her into hiding. Her location is a closely guarded secret but she is reportedly living somewhere in Florida under 24-hour guard.

A Baltimore, MD dog groomer claims she “snapped” & severely injured Rajah the miniature poodle she was grooming. Rajah ended up dying from his injuries. And this isn’t the first dog she has injured.

The groomer had surgery in 2004 for a cerebral hemorrhage, suffers from occasional seizures and was also diagnosed with a panic disorder. What that has to do with “snapping” on a dog is beyond me. Of course, the judge has required her to give up her grooming license.

A woman in the Phillipines cooked her pet dog and served it to her dinner guests. Only after 30 of the guests complained of severe stomach pains and weakness about an hour later did the “hostess” reveal that the dog had gone rabid and had been killed. So the local butcher (I mean hostess) decided to cook her dog and feast on it.

So not only did her guests eat rabid dog, but they also may be getting painful rabies shots. The health officials are not sure that rabies can in fact be contracted by just eating the meat - usually it’s from eating the brain of the infected animal. However it can also be transmitted through scratches, abrasions, open wounds or mucous membranes. The local health office was still waiting for the results of laboratory tests conducted on patients.

People will think twice about eating at her house again!
