Pet shop owner brews beer for dogs – Animal Peculiarity – MSNBC.com
AMSTERDAM, Netherlands – After a long day hunting, there’s nothing like wrapping your paw around a cold bottle of beer. So Terrie Berenden, a pet shop owner in the southern Dutch town of Zelhem, created a beer for her Weimaraners made from beef extract and malt.
“Once a year we go to Austria to hunt with our dogs, and at the end of the day we sit on the verandah and drink a beer. So we thought, my dog also has earned it,” she said.
I once had a dog that craved whiskey sours, so she was named Whiskey. Dog lived to be 17. Slept a LOT.
Dogs and beer, an excellent combination.
So Spuds Mackenzie was on to something here…
Anyone got any great name suggestions for dog beers?
3. No but my favorite MicroBrew out of Denver “Flying Dog” great suds, great art.

I used to have a chow that liked beer, but I had to stop giving it to her because she’d want to play then get ornery and bark really loud.
kind of like my ex wife..

Like people, dogs love carbs. I often eat toast made from day old baguettes. My lab goes nuts for it, more so than meat.
I certainly hope someone is carding these dogs. After all, the dog must be at least 3 years old!
Just don’t put these dogs in front of a sled. That might be a Pulling Under the Influence.
Two stories:
I’d give my dog a little beer now and then, which he readily lapped up. He would actually stumble around, on four legs. When I’d give him beer, then blow pot smoke in his face, he usually just passed out. One time, he was walking slowly toward the patio door with his face down, bumped into the screen, looked groggily up at it with that, “I’m so wasted, WTF did I just run into?” look — then went and laid down for a nap. The mutt lived for a good 12 years – fat, happy, chilled.
Whenever she could reach them, my buddy’s dog Sadie used to tip over unguarded beers. She would then proceed to lap up the beer as fast as possible. My buddy drank beer daily, and the dog pretty much did, too. Sadie died from cirrhosis — yes, really. Great beagle!
I don’t recommend getting cats high or drunk, though — they just get mean — give them a pile of catnip, instead. Parakeets can barely fly when they’re stoned, but they sing a helluva lot. Yeah, there are more stories.
