20060805 KDDC Guard dog destroys teddy bears




Top photo: "Security guard Greg West and his Doberman, Barney. A $75,000 teddy bear formerly owned by Elvis Presley was one of the bears destroyed when the guard dog went on the rampage on Tuesday." (I lost the link, but I bellieve this was an AP photograph.Not that it really matters with AP since AP does not recognize bloggers... and does not credit bloggers...)

The bottom picture is of the victim of this vicious and apparently unprovoked senseless attack.

Bad Dog Bad Dog - In Cold Blood

It is drama played out in many a dog owner's home, but this one has folks all shook up. According to a story filed by the Associated Press and picked up by a number of news outlets:

"LONDON - A guard dog has ripped apart a collection of rare teddy bears, including one once owned by Elvis Presley, during a rampage at a children’s museum.

“He just went berserk,” said Daniel Medley, general manager of the Wookey Hole Caves near Wells, England, where hundreds of bears were chewed up Tuesday night by the 6-year-old Doberman pinscher named Barney."

I found one of the stories here, here and here.

One wonders who the brainiac is that came up with the bright idea of having a dog guard stuffed toys...

Red Mum was very helpful in putting this post together - thanks.
