I have to say, I’m still really pissed about the whole Japanese Fighting Dog thing. Am I taking crazy pills or is this totally outrageous? To me, a pet store owner who keeps a wild animal as an ersatz pet in the store is not unlike a Wine Boutique owner pouring Cisco at a wine tasting.

Abbie, my Mom and Aunt’s poor maltese is suffering horribly. Never a pup that would require apidexin or anything, she now has barely eaten in two days. Since teeny tiny lampshades are not a great idea, she is now sporting a toddler’s turtle neck to keep her from chewing the open wounds on her neck.

And they shaved her. How much more wrong could it get? I mean, frou frou dogs are all about their frou frou haircuts and tartan winter coats. With her shaved neck and turtleneck she looks more like Knight Rider era David Hasselhoff then a delicate little purebred pup. And that’s just wrong. So wrong.
