Animal asininity
Dog owners in Turin (Italy) will be fined up to 500 euros ($650) if they don't walk their pets at least three times a day, under a new law from the city's council.
People will also be banned from dyeing their pets' fur or "any form of animal mutilation" for merely aesthetic motives such as docking dogs' tails, under the law about to be passed in the northern Italian city.
You would think that people as conscious of style as the Italians would understand that some dogs would look foolish with long tails. The dog below, for example, is very stylin'.
Dontcha think Julie would look idiotic with a big old floppy tail draggin' along behind her?

At least 3 x day!
How about a nice long walk in the morning and one in the evening?
PS, Julie's adorable
