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
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.”
