…And Now the Dog
First there was the story about beer and elephants, then about camels, then about pigs, then about bears, and now finally one about dogs.
Yes, the story about mad elephants on the rampage, tearing down grass shacks in India to get at the locals home-brew was wild, and the one about the camel eating the cake and drinking all the beer at a Middle Eastern wedding was strange, the piece about the beer-swilling pigs at the Australian pub was a howl, and the one about the bear breaking into a cabin and smashing open a few dozen cans of beer and drinking the contents (the owners returned home to find the beer passed out—stay away from a hungover bear, baby!) was funny, but now man’s best friend gets in on the act.
Dutch pet shop owner Terry Berenden has decided that her tired hunting dogs should get a refreshing cold one after turning in a good hunt, just like their master. As she sat on the veranda of an Austrian hunting lodge sipping one with her fellow hunters, she realized her Weimaraners deserved to unwind a little bit, too.
Now, it’s clear that drunk elephants, drunk pigs, drunk camels and drunk bears could be a problem. But imagine intoxicated pit bulls, running free in the streets. Happy drunks we’d hope, but one sure way to keep them and the humans around safe is to remove the alcohol. So the pooches are getting a canine form of O’Doul’s…non-alcoholic brew. Maybe it should be called “O’Dogs”, but it’s actually on the market as “Kwispel”—in Dutch, it means “Wagging the Tail”.
It’s made by a Dutch brewery from beef extract and malt. How does it taste? Don’t know yet, but it’s fit for humans, of course, if they want to shell out $2.14 for a bottle.
