When he calls them bitches, he means it as a slur and not as the term for female dogs.<\/p>\n<p>The veterinarian he has appointed wants to end distemper shots because dogs with a temper can intimidate other animals and people.\u00a0 Indeed, his supporters have organized under the acronym MDGA (Make Dogs Growl Angrily).<\/p>\n<p>He has torn down sections of his residence and replaced them with a humongous dog park that will dwarf anything else in the world.\u00a0 His next project is a giant fire hydrant.<\/p>\n<p>He is also an aggressive dog.\u00a0 He plans to annex other territories and places whose names refer to other species. For example, Catalonia will become Dogalonia.<\/p>\n<p>Dogs who believe in the equality of breeds and the rule of paw must speak out against him.\u00a0 We will not be muzzled!<\/p>\n<p>*<\/p>\n<p>Elona Baron resides with Laurie and Bonnie Baron.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"By Elona Baron (as barked to Laurie Baron) in San Diego Elona Baron As citizens of the United&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":489643,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[28],"tags":[74,76,75],"class_list":["post-489642","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-san-diego","tag-san-diego","tag-san-diego-headlines","tag-san-diego-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/489642","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=489642"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/489642\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/489643"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=489642"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=489642"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=489642"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
