    •October 2011 – Peanut the dachshund-terrier mix (Sicklerville, N.J.). A squabble with a skunk ended with more than just a bad stench in the air when Peanut was found buried alive by firefighters.

    I am outraged that the firefighters buried this poor dog alive! :)

      This is a case of a misplaced modifier. The firefighters found the dog buried alive.
      This is an excerpt from another article, “Peanut the dachshund-terrier mix from Sicklerville, N.J., who got the bad end of a squabble with a skunk and, after chasing the skunk into a small hole in the ground, had to be rescued by firefighters.”.

      It’s just bad editing.

      I’m pretty sure that they meant that the firefighters are the ones that found the dog, not that they were the ones who buried it.

      I can’t believe all of you took Mr. Obvious seriously. He was Obviously kidding.

    One time both my cats went outside in the rain and then came back in the house and a few minutes later I found them in the dryer with it running! I still can’t figure it out as no one else was home besides me.

        Yes, they were warm and fluffy! The noise they made in the dryer was crazy, it was meow and then thud, meow and thud.

    When I was a youth. One of the neighborhood bullies pored gasoline down a cat’s mouth. It ran round and round in a circle for about 5 minutes….It fell over, we thought it was dead……however, we were happy to find out, it only ran out of gas…..

    This also makes it appear that dogs are super doofy and really need insurance.

    Did they remove Peebles from the car engine BEFORE the trip to the vet or after they got there?

    I have VPI for my dogs and they really are a great company. They have the best customer service that I have ever come across in the insurance industry.
