"Free dog, infact , scratch that ile pay u to come and get him...........He's a beagle, 10yrs old. He stinks. Even after he's had a bath , he still stinks. He will make ur whole house stink, and did i mention the hair.......... seems his is always falling out, u wont ever be able to wear black again. We keep flea medication on him, however in the summer he's alergic to EVERYTHING indoors and out, hes even alergic to plastic, go figure, so ile send along his porcelin bowl. I will also send his collar and leash, so that he can choke himself and drag u around ur neighborhood when u walk him, or rather when he walks u. If u take him u must have slipcovered furniture, so u can take it off and wash it. When he goes outdoors, he just loves wiping himself all over the furniture when he comes in, also his mouth after he eats. Which, by the way he doesnt like dogfood and is alergic to most , so ule have to cook for him. He's on a strict bland diet........He's very sloppy, ur kitchen floor will always be wet, where he drips water after drinking....He likes to lay on the sofa, if u try moving him beware, he will bite u.............It really doesnt hurt though, as he doesnt have that many teeth........so on the plus side he wont chew up ur shoes..........He hates cats and children.................Ile be awaiting ur email............

Poor doggie!

1. I think it is for real

and I think the dog is ill. His immune system is stressed so he presents with allergies. Wipes himself on the furniture ? train him not to.

2. Wonder if it's an owner problem

or a dog problem. My guess is owner. Poor dog - I hope he gets a good home. Maybe out in the country.

3. Is it a mixed animal?

Could this be Oscar?

4. At least the poster is giving fair warning,

and anyone who take the dog knows what to expect.

5. Usually these are just venting

But they're funny as hell! Everyone needs to let off a little steam now and then.
