    Dog Is Terrified of Low-Fat Lamb Jerky [VIDEO]

    His owner says, "This is strange and yet hilarious, because this is a dog who will eat anything and pretty much everything." But he wants to make it clear that he's not abusing the young dog: "I will have you know that this in no way counts as abuse. Once I finished filming, he went back to playing with his toys. He is a much loved and much spoiled pup. :)"

    But just look at the sad expression on the dog's face. Sure, a lot of that is the natural folds of the breed's skin, but from someone who has had undesired foods pushed into his face too many times, I have to feel sorry for the little guy.

    • Why is AT&T milking subscribers for an extra $500 million? ‘Because they can’

      AT&T said earlier this week that it will add a new administrative fee to each of its wireless subscribers’ monthly bills. The fee is only $0.61, which doesn’t sound like much, and an AT&T spokesperson was quick to point out to several news sites that this new fee is lower than similar fees charged by rival carriers.
