Frozen Yogurt Mania Goes to the Dogs

090408yog.JPGOf course: An organic frozen yogurt called Yöghund, made specifically for dogs with discerning palates, has been tapping into the city's seemingly inexhaustible market of crazy pet owners. Kennel owner Jody Rogers started the company two years ago because she "wanted to come up with a product that would help with relieving stress." Don't laugh; today's dogs face more pressure than ever to stay competitive with all these adorable cats. A Yöghund spokesman in this commercial says that "dogs get into this zone where once they start licking it, they generally don't stop until it's all done." Of course, dogs will also slurp up their own vomit until it's all done. And when it comes to frozen yogurt, the Post finds that four out of five dogs prefer the same thing humans want: Haagen-Dazs.

....one born every minute.
I don't know whether to be disgusted or jealous for not thinking of it first.

Rubes.

I have found that dogs like the same food as people. However, if you sell the people food as food for dogs, you can charge more than twice the price for it.

This doesn't sound much different than Frosty Paws, which is available at most supermarkets.

I had a dog that used to try to eat clumps out of the litter box. "Discerning palates" my ass! Lol.
