digby the dog in pushing daisies

[QUOTE=Seravieve]LOL what an odd post...... thanks, i'm upping the quirkiness levels today.

I dont see how Digby would be a motivator for BYB though. If that statement is true, then every dog on tv is a BYB motivator as well. Wishbone, Rachel Ray's Pit, Dog of the Week on Ch 4 news (STL), etc. Silly statement really..
not so silly,really, one of the first rescue transports i drove was from a BYB in illinois who thought goldens could play ball like the air bud movies. if a type of dog gets popular, BYBs, seeing an opportunity for money ooze out for it.

Im just saying to single out Digby is ridiculous. He just happens to be the latest tv dog out.. whoopie. I dont see the point of your post... Thats all. I think any dog breed that people think they can make money off of is ammo for new BYB. I guess maybe if theres a dog on tv.. then its in the limelight so other people see it.. I dont even know if I can go on.. just seems repetitive and stale.. a thread with no purpose.

101 dalmatians-Dal sales shot up, and the number of Dals in shelters shot up.

Beethoven, Frazier (JRT's) ad nauseum.

No, Joycenalex, you're not being cynical, just realistic.
