    I think the second story qualifies for being ridiculous. I think their Humane Society should spend $8.00 and buy a book of dog breeds for reference in future.
    That poor dog.

    This one is about a Shiba Inu that got mistaken as a coyote, and released into the wild.

    Sigh, I do wish every community had a police force that could recognize what snakes are what, and which ones are dangerous, but the media loves to portray all snakes as being bad!

    And anyone who cannot tell the difference between a Shiba Inu and a coyote has no business being an Animal Control officer in the first place, in my humble opinion ...

    This news report was apparently not really read before going to a newsperson & reported
    word for word on air. Hard to believe when you see it in print, but true.

    Yeah, I saw that on FailBlog a few days ago (A day ago? The days have been blurring together....). I was just scrolling and saw the second to last one, and I just facepalmed.

    Wow, that is pathetic. I can't believe how the media reacts to things sometimes. A Ball Python hardly has what I'd call "fangs", Jeez! And the moron who released it wants it back, get real!

    I saw this pop up on my Facebook feed earlier today. Apparently "Beliebers" are even crazier than I originally thought. And these are just the celebrities they've attacked.
