Puppy’s Pillow Fort Deemed Structurally Unsound

Tazzy the dog spent a recent Saturday morning designing and constructing what he was sure would be a durable and functional pillow fort. Unfortunately, it was deemed unsafe by county building inspectors and fell down shortly after completion.

“It was a very modern and pragmatic design. A lot of usable space and no waste,” said pillow architecture professor Lenora Eastman. “But Tazzy didn’t account for his own size and weight when laying out the foundation, so the whole thing was doomed from the start.”

No one was hurt in the incident, though Tazzy pride was bruised. The vacant couch will be turned into a Dunkin’ Donuts early next year.

Dog Doctor Becomes Chief Internist at Hospital

It took eight years of medical school, two years as a resident and five as head of emergency care at the Warwick Veterinary Hospital, but last week, Doby the pup was named chief internist at the pet care facility.

Of course, because he’s a dog, he was able to complete that 15 years of school and training in just two human years.

“He’s a very knowledgeable physician,” said fellow veterinarian Dr. Heidi Goss. “He’s extremely loyal to the hospital and once he rarely chews the furniture anymore. There’s no one I’d rather have managing the care of our patients.”
