REPORT: Pup Still Recovering from Too Much Mashed Potatoes

Though details are still scarce, The Fluffington Post has learned that a Seattle-area dog named Scamper is in rough shape this afternoon after reportedly consuming an unhealthy amount of mashed potatoes yesterday.

“He had at least four helpings, not to mention stuffing, cranberry sauce and a ton of green bean casserole,” said one source close to the situation. ”I think he would have been okay, though, if he hadn’t gone for the pumpkin pie.”
