Poodle Disguise for Dobermans – no, really! (sort of)

Posted Thursday, August 31, 2006 at 12:57PM

poodle.jpgCuteoverload is a well-known and weeeeird blog with just about the cutest pictures and the funniest headlines/commentaries you’ll ever find.  It never fails to make me laugh, and hey, I don’t laugh easy these days.   They also recently pointed to one of the strangest products in the world: a Poodle Disguise for Dobermans – which includes (1) Fake fur pieces (4 leg pieces, one body piece, and head piece), (2) Black face paint (safe for dogs), and (3) Safe suit-fitting method statement and instructions.  You can even get an under-harness (sold separately).  It’s not entirely a joke; the Australian folk at attackchi.org.au behind all this really are trying to make a point about how certain breeds are wrongfully considered unsafe and even have laws made to restrict their keeping and breeding, while other equally dangerous (or non-dangerous) breeds are virtually ignored.  So it’s kind of a social statement, kind of a product, kind of a joke, and really very funny.  Coming soon: Golden Retriever disguises for German Shepherds and Old English Sheepdog disguises for Mastiffs.  Don’t miss ‘em!
