When Zeke the dog said he wanted to rent a photo booth for his birthday party, friends were skeptical. It was expensive and some feared it might be passé. 

“He sort of blew the party budget,” said friend Emily Collier. “Renting the booth meant instead of a catering spread from Whole Foods, we just had potato chips and pretzels. Plus, aren’t photo booths like so 2015?”

But Collier admits she was wrong. The photo booth was a hit, she said, and there was a line to use it the entire evening.

“I guess I forgot this was mostly a puppy party,” she said. “They’re a little behind on trends, and I mean, they don’t really care what kind of food you get.”

Ubiquitous coffee retailer Starbucks is facing controversy over its recent store policy which prohibits pugs from purchasing coffee.

“It’s outrageous,” says Tiffany Wainright, who created a petition to upend the policy on Change.org, which, as of this writing, has 34,000 signatures. “Pugs are people too, and they occasionally need a pick-me-up. Why shouldn’t they be allowed to have Starbucks coffee? It’s pure discrimination.”

In a statement released on Starbucks’ website earlier today, the coffee giant responded to the uproar, stating: “We love dogs and dog owners who enjoy our products with their pets. But coffee is not healthy for dogs, and we cannot support anyone giving it to them. To ensure the health and safety of pets, we have prohibited serving coffee to them across all of our stores.”
