One step closer to a real-life ‘Dogs Playing Poker’

One need look no further than the famed Dogs Playing Poker (which sold for $590,000 earlier this year) to know that dogs secretly love two things more than man, and that’s poker and alcoholic beverages.*

This fact crossed my mind immediately when I stumbled onto Beer for Dogs! (via quonsar’s blog). It’s one step in the direction of making a real life Dogs Playing Poker, with actual dogs. The hard part, of course, will be enabling dogs to actualize their intrinsic fondness for poker. The final coup de grĂ¢ce would naturally be to have a monkey butler serving the dogs manhattans, but we simply don’t have the technology yet to make this happen. Still, I’ll keep my fingers crossed. Never underestimate Pavlov.

I suspect that this possibility fits into the greater grand unification meme involving Mahir, All Your Base, and the Flying Spaghetti Monster. I’ll continue to research the connections, and submit the findings for peer review.

*Disclaimer: This is a lie, don’t feed your dog booze. They will puke everywhere. In particular, Beagles simply can’t hold their liquor.
