This shouldn't make me laugh...

Really, I am ashamed for giggling. Especially in light of the poignant posts below about returned animals.

But the most adorable dog was returned this week, after having been adopted for ten months. It's an adorable dog -- trust me, one of the cutest moppets you'd ever want to see -- but he is a bit of a pill, and is not an easy dog to manage. He has...energy.

The reason the dog was returned? He attacked the parrot.

You don't hear that one every day.

Was the parrot on the floor? Was the dog standing on a chair? Did they think the dog wouldn't attack the parrot? Was the parrot mocking the dog?

I just have so many questions.
