Happily Tipsy Poodles?
Where do people get these bright ideas? Beer for canines? What for? People enjoy forgetting themselves, relaxing their inhibitions, behaving idiotically and then ascribing it to the effects of alcohol consumption, but why target innocent dogs?
Oh, right. Beer without alcohol. What's the point? To relax Fido? Fido's already relaxed. Most dogs spend most of their time relaxing. Gotta be someone who knows squat about dogs who acquired this really bright idea.
After all, who doesn't know that dog lovers spoil their pets rotten? In a world where a significant proportion of children aren't brought up in healthy living conditions, haven't enough food to eat, live in inadequate shelter, die as a result of proximity to war situations, we spoil our dogs.
So here comes another bright idea. Not enough, after all, to buy the most nutritious, carefully balanced dog food the market has to offer. They get biscuit treats too, of any variety you can think of: chicken or beef flavoured, and don't forget peanut butter and bacon flavoured as well.
Toys for dogs? Of course, take your pick. Balls galore, plastic hamburgers, hotdogs, ducks, they're all available so Fido can be entertained. Dog beds and sofas, you bet. Nice soft cushy pillows to be flung here and there on the floor for our very favourite, lovely and loving Fido? Yup.
We even take out health insurance for our delicate little four-footers. And don't forget the sweaters, coats and jackets for winter, the raincoats for inclement weather. Ah, and boots, don't overlook the boots. All of this takes money.
Oops, forgot the most important thing, the large amounts of hard-earned cash handed over the counter at the veterinarian office for regular physical examinations, annual inoculations and emergency treatment. Yes, and there's grooming costs.
Nothing cheap about keeping a companion pet, no sirree. And now we can also indulge their drinking habits. Or rather create a drinking habit for them. For a Dutch pet shop owner has launched a non-alcoholic beer - Kwispelbier - made from malt and beef extract. Yummy!
When the owners relax and celebrate the end of the day with a pint or more, so can Fido. What's next?
