Dog destroys £40,000 Elvis teddy
A £40,000 teddy which used to belong to Elvis Presley was among scores
of toy bears destroyed when a dog meant to guard them went on the rampage.

Oops :)

Thanks for the link Kerry.

An exercise: Try to imagine filling out the paperwork for this insurance claim.

Yes, it must have. I probably should have prefaced it by saying that my Doberman, Gilly *loves* stuffed animals. She loves to take the stuffing out of them as soon as possible. I would no more have her guard teddy bears than I would have her guard bacon. That's what struck me funny.

*Giggles*

I can so see Gilly sitting on the floor full of fluff with that innocent did I do that? look on her face.

I saw the picture of the dog, and it looked just like Misha and Gilly, with big floppy dobie ears. they better not hurt a single hair on those ears.

They said there might have been a smell on the bear that switched on the dogs attack. Did someone smear that poor bear with BACON!

:) That wasn't meant as a criticism, btw. I know it's possible for some things to be hilarious and terrible at the same time. I actually found the article pretty funny even while thinking that it must have sucked for a lot of people.

My only real dog experience is with clawfoot's yellow lab, Willow, who I would not trust with a room full of expensive stuffed animals under any circumstances.

No problem, I was just being "clarity boy" (as we refer to my tendency to over explain).
