Dog Builds Hobbit Hole

Dog Builds Hobbit Hole

by Scott Friedstein, FluffPo Correspondent

Jake the dog was always a Lord of the Rings fan, and now, he has his own little piece of Middle Earth. The pup recently completed work on a hobbit hole, modeled after the distinctive dwellings in J.R.R. Tolkien’s tales. The finished product looks like something straight out of the Shire… more or less.

“I don’t remember hobbit holes being described as ‘plastic,’” says Brian Moss, a friend. “He also could have dug into the ground a bit more. Still, it’s a pretty decent approximation. For a dog.”

Jake is now reported to be planning an even more ambitious project.

 "He’s going to make a doggy Minas Tirith,“ says Moss. "The blueprints look impressive, but I’m not sure how he’s going to pull it off. He may have to subcontract out."
