Corgi Playdate Goes Awry
Corgi Playdate Goes Awry
By Scott Friedstein, FluffPo Correspondent
Lana the corgi just wanted a friend to play with.
Bored with the usual 9-to-5 grind, the dog logged on to Craigslist to find out about local playdate opportunities in her area.
“She found another corgi that was willing to meet up,” says Jen Dwyer, a friend. “There weren’t any pictures attached to the posting, though. Guess that should have been a red flag.”
Indeed, the playmate that greeted Lana last week was not a corgi at all. At least, not technically.
“It was a stuffed corgi,” says Dwyer. “It took a few minutes for Lana to realize, but once she did, she was really disappointed. I’ll tell you, the Internet can be a weird place sometimes.”

Puppy Fired from Florist Job for Eating Merchandise
Puppy Fired from Florist Job for Eating Merchandise
The Capitol Florist in Austin, TX has one rule for employees and one rule only: the flowers are for selling, not snacking. It’s even emblazoned in big gold letters on a poster in the break room.
So when Moseby the dog, a Papillon/Chihuahua mix, munched up a $5 sunflower this morning that was given no extra chances. He was fired on the spot.
“It was actually his third offense,” said Capitol owner Mandy Rhoda. “He was given a warning last week when he ate the nasturtium. And I probably should have fired him when he ate all those roses – but I felt bad because, you know, thorns. But I had no choice this time. Rules are rules.”
