Sorry about the double. I don't know where that came from. And..l

Eeuwww! The dog had the bottleneck in it's mouth. After licking its butt.

[fivver]

*WTFBBQ, "Man's Best Friend" and it's about a dog. No front snap bra anywhere???*

[DeskDiva, Prom Queen]

Brings a whole new meaning to the term "beer b!tch."

[DeskDiva, Prom Queen]

And if y'all kept watching the videos, the third one was apparently a Japanese beer for kids. WTF?

[Siouxie]

YAY Ridley!!!!

[DeskDiva, Prom Queen]

Ooh!! And it's a Ridley post!!! Cool. :)

[Siouxie]

Heh! That's nothing, I taught my 2 year old to fetch my wine box.

*hic*

[Davec]

That's why men have dogs, and women have cats!

[fivver]

uh, dog or kid Sio?

[gjd]

Oooh. Can I have one that responds to "Make dinner now"?

[Wench Lizzy]

For those who don't mind a little dog slobber with their beer. I have trained myself to fetch my own beer.

[Siouxie]

kid, fivver. she was a good girl ;-)

[daisymae]

Hey fivver (or anyone) - what does the BBQ in WTFBBQ stand for? All I can think of is Bar Be-Que.

[Adult Delinquent]

There is a reason you can't teach cats to fetch... because they don't get it.

You take their toy and you're holding it and then you throw it and say "Go get it!" My cat looks at me like, "Ok... You JUST had it in your hand.. Why did you throw it away if you want it? You need to learn to hold on to your stuff...."

Dogs have owners... Cats have staff.

[fivver]

daisymae - you could be right. as far as we (the blog) can determine, it doesn't stand for anything except making the WTF look different and maybe a little more fun. and starting conversations...

[igloo]

Oh Yeah,
Well I got me a rotedwil routweillr humongeus Gnormouse black dog that fetches a keg on command.

[Recovering 24 Addict]

Damn you work place firewall!!!

[fivver]

Dog: You feed me, play with me, give me a soft bed and love me. You must be God!

Cat: You feed me, play with me, give me a soft bed and love me. I must be God!

[J.E.C.666]

(BBQ is a bot beater) My viewing didn't show the dog licking the beer's butt.

From the Urban Dictionary...
"When someone is surprised, they will say this. It is used by mostly teens who have lack of grasping of maturity, much like the word emo. You will rarely hear, nor see this used by an adult, due to the fact this is a word for kids."

Actually, I have a cat that likes to play fetch. But only to amuse him, of course. If I'm not available he'll throw his own toy across the room but he likes it better when I toss it and he can then kill it before it escapes. He's smart enough to have learned that he has to bring it back to me before I'll throw it again. He's cat enough to have learned he doesn't have to bring it all the way back, thus explaining the back scratchers all over the house. But those are also handy for scratching my back so it's no big deal.

[Siouxie]

daisy, fivver's right. As far as I know it really doesn't mean anything just an extension of the WTF??

A little less mature, if you will. Perfect for us.

[Siouxie]

heh! I was right LOL

[igloo]

whoops. Blog Hiccup.

[CJrun]

This works with dogs just fine. With kids, not so much. Dogs never say, "Do you realize that's your fifth beer?"

[Siouxie]

CJ, that's why I stopped using her when she learned to count ;-)

Then, her little sister took over.

Cats will fetch beer. You just have to help them a little.

[Annie Where-but-here]

America's Funniest Vid's had a clip of a black lab fetching the phone when it rang for her guy, getting him a beer from the fridge, and then putting his empty in the recycle bin. The lab did NOT put her mouth on the top of the beer, because labs are CLASSY dogs.
The funniest part of the clip was that the guy told his buddy on the phone that he couldn't go anywhere because he 'had to watch the dog.'

[SW]

How about a Bark's root beer?

[Wyo Cowboy]

so I let the videos run for a while, as I'm sure several of you did. The parrot was really cool.

[CJrun]

Schlitz Tzu?

[Wyo Cowboy]

many animals can be taught to be worthwhile.

[Wyo Cowboy]

Rottweizen ?

[daisymae]

AWBH - Labs are classy dogs, you say? I dunno. My son's Lab was a big kid PITA who shed black hair everywhere you could imagine and many places you couldn't; tried to lick me in the face; climbed on the furniture, when I told him not to; and barked in the middle of the night over squirrels running across the fence. I don't think I would call him classy.

[SW]

lol all o'youse. keep it up!

[CJrun]

(ok, kirin tin tin was pretty good)

Here's mutt in your eye!

[Annie Where-but-here]

daisymae - sit! Stay!

Heiny, Ken? (That's for Wyo.)

Thanks, Annie.

All goo, gold star for Pabstillon.

*pours an Afghaness*

[Annie Where-but-here]

Thanks, Wyo - see my 7:10 post. GMTA....ours, too.

[Wyo Cowboy]

Thanks again, Annie. sometimes catchin' up, one gets a little sloppy.

One of the things I like about the blog, is it lets me know that I'm not as strange as everyone I know thinks I am. There are others out there!

[Just Ducky]

So true, Wyo. Although we may ALL be as strange as everyone thinks you are. But let's not dwell on that.

Who's tending bar?

[Annie Where-but-here]

BARKeep, here! What's yer pleasure, oh feathered one?

[Cheryl Howard]

A while back, I rescued a doberman/lab mix from a guy in a wheel chair. He'd taught this dog amazing tricks. Her name was Buddy and she was smart as a whip. I'd come in the door with bags of groceries and simply "ask" (versus command) her to shut the door behind me. She would.

And she could also fetch a beer. "Buddy, this is a Corona and I'd prefer a pale ale" and off she would go to get the pale ale. She was the most magnificent dog. I wish all dogs were that smart.

Edward (or Special Ed as Mr. Howard refers to him) knows how to play with a squeeky toy. Big deal.

[Cheryl Howard]

Oh, and I'm with Annie. Labs are amazing. Our black lab Bogart is the consumate gentleman and a perfect dog. No kidding. He has never once been a "bad dog".

[Just Ducky]

*Snork* @ barkeep! I'll take a blogarita, Annie, or a good white whine wine.

[O the U(manity)]

Stevens Pointer ... (it's a local -- not Lo-Cal -- brand in Minnesnowta ...)

[CJrun]

Well, how about Thirsty Dog Brewing. I'm a fan of Old Leghumper.

[Annie Where-but-here]

Cheryl - I once made the mistake of asking my lab to 'get' the door instead of 'close' it. She gave me this look like, 'weeeellll, ooookay, if you say so,' then proceed to grab the door in her teeth and try to pull it off the hinges. Oops.

Hey, I found the chair to go with Dave's ride-on cooler - it's the Barkalounger. Street legal in Minnesota, don'tcha know!

There are many many smart dogs. Unfortunately, there are more dumb people. :(

[Annie Where-but-here]

Wine-marauner for the webbed-footed one!

[Wyo Cowboy]

I used to buy/drink this when I lived in Colorado, but it's not available here.

[Annie Where-but-here]

Cowboys are SUCH a tease....ya gonna tell us or do we have to beg?

[CJrun]

Apparently.

[Wyo Cowboy]

"this" above is supposed to hyperlink here.

[Wyo Cowboy]

The motto on the bottle used to say, "because a dog is a walking tick, anyway." whatever that meant.

[Just Ducky]

Thanks, Annie! Whippet on down the bar!

[Annie Where-but-here]

*wings one to the winged one*
I'll be right back. I gotta go restock.

[Annie Where-but-here]

CJ, please...on the paper!

[Annie Where-but-here]

Wyo - These guys deliver. Although why you'd pay that much when you have perfectly good Coors in the fridge is beyond me.

[CJrun]

Wyo, I can't believe I forgot about Flying Dog... very good and available here.

Annie, I was gonna say sumpin' nice a about Beach Beer Dog, but I need to go make Coors.

[DeskDiva, Prom Queen]

Since the topic is beer, I'm shocked Clean Hands hasn't been by yet.

[Just Ducky]

Howdy, Diva! Want some whine wine?

[Wyo Cowboy]

if it weren't for the easy availability of New Belgium's Sunshine Wheat, I'd be sendin' out for Old Scratch. Flying Dog is an excellent brewery.

*pleads the 5th on Coors.*

[CJrun]

Annnie, looking at the % alcohol, they don't deliver that, they pull the pin and throw it.

[ScottMGS]

Here's my cat sleeping it off. He hates fireworks.

[Just Ducky]

Great pic, Scott. Our border collie isn't fond of fireworks, either. We used to have a golden retriever that came unglued whenever it thundered, and fireworks really sent him into orbit. It was somewhat of a blessing when he got so old he couldn't hear them anymore.

[Wyo Cowboy]

CJ, here's another GREAT brewery, and a bit high on the Alcohol content as well...

[crossgirl]

wyo, shouldn't that be New Belgium's Sunshine Wheaten Terrier?

[Wyo Cowboy]

cg, I can't believe I missed that one. good job.

[ScottMGS]

If you like your beers hoppy and strong you probably already know about Stone Brewing.

[Wyo Cowboy]

Having traveled much of the globe, I'd have to say the finest brewery I've ever found is Stuttgarter Hofbraeu.

period.

[Just Ducky]

Ja, ich bin über 18 Jahre alt! Und ich bin sehr Dürstig!

*flaps away in search of non-virtual libation*

[Laura Vona]

One night my husband was home alone and the dog went trotting into the living room with a big piece of chicken.
My husband had just had supper and thought he must have left a piece of chicken out on the counter and went into the kitchen to check.
Nope.
All of the leftover chicken was in the fridge where it belonged.
He didn't think to much more of it until about 10 minutes later when the dog came trotting back into the livingroom with another big piece of chicken.
I came home later and we figured out together that the dog was pulling on a towel we had on the door and helping himself to whatever he wanted in the fridge.
(the floor is a little unlevel in our kitchen so the door would just swing closed when he exited with his 'treat'.)
It was really funny once we figured it out but my husband was really spooked by it for most of the evening that it happened.
The only rational explanation he could think of was that someone had broken in somewhere in the house and was (for whatever reason) giving the dog pieces of chicken...
Love the video, that was too funny.
: )

[McMutt the Beer Dog]

Hoffbrau Wow!

[Wyo Cowboy]

Scott, thanks for the tip. somehow, I've not tried Stone's brews. I'll quickly remedy that!!

[Wyo Cowboy]

CJMcMutt, have you experienced Hoffbraeu?

[DeskDiva, Prom Queen]

Ducky, I'll send a round of celebratory champagne through the bar tonight. We're celebrating the birth of my new grandniece Grace Eleanor, (Eleanor in memory of my grandma). She was born at 11:00 last night and weighed in at 6 beautiful pounds of baby girl.

CHEERS!!!!

*pops a cork and pours*

[ScottMGS]

Wyo, they're *extremely* hoppy. Les loves their Arrogant Bastard - too hoppy for me. As you can see, they have a sense of humor about it. Obnoxious, yes, but funny.

I do like their Smoked Porter and their darker stuff.

[Wyo Cowboy]

way cool, Diva. being a gruncle, I can relate!

Congrat's!

[DeskDiva, Prom Queen]

Thanks, Wyo!! :)

[Wyo Cowboy]

Scott, I love the hops. Porters, I usually find too sweet. I guess that's why "they" make so many diffent types of beer/ale.

[ScottMGS]

Even their dark beers are pretty damn hoppy, Wyo. If you ever get a chance to try their Double Arrogant or some of their (limited) Anniversary Ales try 'em.

[Wyo Cowboy]

will do, Scott, though I see by their site it's a little scarce here in Wyoming.

hope to be in Colorado soon to see my kids. Will have to try some there.

[CJrun]

Laura, let me guess... a Lab.
