    • jzuska, on 07/17/2008, -6/+1Onion = funny
      onn = not funny
      • DaHuuuuuudge, on 07/17/2008, -4/+1I've yet to see anything from the onion be funny.
    • Colesif, on 07/17/2008, -0/+4It's funny, as I was watching this video, my West HIghland White Terrier was outback barking as well.

      I think this was the Onions transition to 'real' reporting.
    • kaplanfx, on 07/17/2008, -0/+2Seriously what's wrong with people, the folks behind me have 3 mongrels that bark at six in the morning on weekends, and bark all evening on the weekdays. Don't get me wrong, I love dogs. In fact the only reason I haven't called animal control is that I spoke with some other more friendly neighbors and the told me that the owners have been warned several times and if they get called on again the dogs will probably be put to sleep. I can't be responsible for that so I'm basically *****.
    • nogami, on 07/17/2008, -0/+2The people that live beside me have one of these yappy little rat-dogs - and if they're not home, it will bark continually for hours straight. Thank goodness for concrete condo construction, I can barely hear it inside my unit.

      The problem was that when they got the dog, they used to carry it around with them everywhere they went in a little baby-carrier bag/sling. Naturally now the dog absolutely loses it whenever they're not around. It's pretty cruel when you think about it...

  • DeathJux, on 07/17/2008, -5/+176At first I thought "wtf, how does it sleep?" and then I realized that there were layers to this story... many layers, much like some sort of layered vegetable.
    • Zeag, on 07/17/2008, -1/+47That made me cry.
    • lonewalker, on 07/17/2008, -5/+23>much like some sort of layered vegetable

      A cabbage perhaps? P:
      • Elliuotatar, on 07/17/2008, -1/+11Or perhaps an ogre?

      • jtbell04, on 07/17/2008, -1/+57Agh, you beet me to it.

      • JesusHimself, on 07/17/2008, -9/+1I predict a new article on digg entitled "this is why i love digg" with a screen shot of the thread.
      • Chalks777, on 07/17/2008, -0/+7@Himself, wrong. I predict a new article on digg entitled "This one thyme on Digg..." with a screen shot of the bread.
      • WiretapStudios, on 07/17/2008, -1/+5Don't butter anyone up, the comments are getting a little crusty.
      • KingGorilla, on 07/17/2008, -8/+1Is that like a cross between a pun and an opinion?
      • BlackTye, on 07/17/2008, -0/+6I'm surprised this whole thread hasn't gone sour, dough these bread puns might get us in a bit of a jam.
      • indian24, on 07/18/2008, -1/+2Apple my guns out and shoot you if anyone does a combo breaker.

    • megamod, on 07/17/2008, -14/+2You mean as in: "oh...the onion"
    • sonnysavage, on 07/17/2008, -8/+3Hmm... if it's a vegetable, that means it's not a cake or parfait...
    • chikuten, on 07/17/2008, -14/+15you know, not everybody likes onions...



      cakes! everybody loves cakes! cakes have layers!
  • kailash079, on 07/17/2008, -9/+2thats some non-stop bitching
  • azntiger1000, on 07/17/2008, -10/+4my god. that would drive me insane.
  • austang, on 07/17/2008, -5/+79"WHAT DOG IS SO EXCITED ABOUT UNCLEAR" across the bottom.

    lmao
  • truman48, on 07/17/2008, -6/+19and the dog responds to "shut the F up" instead of its actual name.
    • AchaIemoipas, on 07/17/2008, -2/+14I've actually met a dog like that. I train dogs as a hobby and this lady in my block has a little monster that only responds to "stop it".

      Dog got used to that because she disciplined her dog by saying "stop it" and petting the dog at the same time. Which is the equivalent of rewarding him.

      I figured it was easier to change the way she disciplines the dog than to change his name, so now his name is "stop it"'.
  • grantmoore3d, on 07/17/2008, -13/+8"I'd like to kill it" LMAO
  • SHUUTOBI, on 07/17/2008, -14/+4"I'd like to kill it..."
  • miglaugh, on 07/17/2008, -13/+18It would've gone back to the SPCA 5 years, 11 months and 3 weeks ago if it was my dog. If they wouldn't take it, "Hello, china buffet??"
    • caldaan, on 07/17/2008, -3/+7When we adopted a cat from our SPCA we signed a contract specifically stating we wouldn't use him for food. So no china buffet for him!
      • timdorr, on 07/17/2008, -0/+4Does the SPCA call up your house every few weeks and ask if you've eaten the dog?

        And if you did, wouldn't you just lie?
    • fxu1989, on 07/17/2008, -6/+3Hello dumpster.
      • timdorr, on 07/17/2008, -0/+1That wouldn't work. It's already full of dead babies.
  • SRSco, on 07/17/2008, -3/+60I have had this incredible talent of having a 100% success rate of guessing which headlines are from the Onion when I look at my RSS digg feeds, until now. This is the first time I actually believed this story to be a true possibility and not a joke, because I know some ***** dogs who haven't ever stopped barking. I had to move twice because of it.
  • JackGrinnan, on 07/17/2008, -7/+17"This marks the longest time a dog has barked in Rapid City history, surpassing the previous record of 8 minutes."

    Hilarious
  • seanmx, on 07/17/2008, -13/+12shock collar.
    • wjlaw100, on 07/17/2008, -3/+10Shock Coller, with a slight modification of "The Clapper".
  • agsinger, on 07/17/2008, -9/+45I hate those stupid small dogs. My neighbor has one that NEVER stops barking. It's ridiculous, I don't pay to live in a Kennel Club. It never stops barking because the people never bother to walk it or are ever home to pay attention to it.

    Solution? I recorded it barking for 2 hours on my digital audio recorder, went to the corporate office, hit play on full volume and sat there (they brushed me off last time I tried to complain). They got the message and I haven't heard from the dog since. But anyway, I hate these dogs and they serve no function. Get a freakin cat!
    • kickelephant, on 07/17/2008, -0/+9I'm confused. What corporate office? Was your neighbor the corporate office?
      • WiretapStudios, on 07/17/2008, -0/+6Dogs Inc. LLC
      • agsinger, on 07/17/2008, -0/+13my apartment building is owned by a huge real estate corporation - the local leasing office in my building is worthless, they dont care, so i went to their corporate office to complain...
      • crimson117, on 07/17/2008, -0/+2Probably his apartment building is owned by a corporation.
    • pizpot, on 07/17/2008, -4/+4google your city bylaws. you will find one that says dog barking is never allowed, even during hours when power tools etc are allowed. Then make written complaints, and before long, you will have peace and quiet, or the owner will elect to keep paying the fines. What you feel like a jerk? Well, the owner is the jerk for having a dog and not living in the country. And buying dogs from kennels to save them is no reason as the breeders will just refill the demand with another dog that will end up in the city were it doesn't belong.
    • Surferess, on 07/17/2008, -0/+1Dude! That is awesome! I am so going to do this as a special surprise for those lovely neighbors with the dog!
    • antdude, on 07/18/2008, -2/+2Cats aren't any better. :P
  • tehmacuser, on 07/17/2008, -12/+5I've already read at least 4 comments that from their wording imply they think this is real
    PROTIP :
    It's the Onion - It's SATIRE.
    You'd think most Digg users would pick that up by now, but apparently not.
  • ratataa, on 07/17/2008, -10/+32Must be a female dog....
  • ansatsu29, on 07/17/2008, -13/+2The family should have brought the dog to an animal behavior specialist to know why their pooch hasnt stop barking for 6 years.

    I imagine how irritated their neighbors are.
  • jferrari, on 07/17/2008, -12/+4The dog whisperer could make it stop..
    http://www.cesarmillaninc.com/
    • Scrappy1850, on 07/17/2008, -1/+3he taught my dog how to eat peanut butter. the dog is has much better behavior, but my gf is always exausted :(
    • dorianh49, on 07/17/2008, -2/+1Actually, he's called the Dog Whisperer because he lost his voice yelling at this damn dog to shut up.
    • seraph582, on 07/17/2008, -0/+1It's true! The dog whisperer is ***** amazing. One of the only television shows involving real people/problems worth watching. I think it's on the National Geographic channel. Very stimulating and educational. Plus, his accent and mannerisms are hilarious!
  • SoupNoZi, on 07/17/2008, -20/+2How do people find this crap funny?
  • RickIV, on 07/17/2008, -6/+10The poster behind the girl in the school scene: "We Love You, but... we're not IN love with you." I love the Onion.
  • cutiger, on 07/17/2008, -13/+3Just kill the damn thing.
  • knuckles, on 07/17/2008, -12/+3Shoot it.

    (don't get me wrong - I LOVE dogs. But this? BANG!)
  • MillionsLivio, on 07/17/2008, -12/+46"I'd like to kill it.."

  • Soval, on 07/17/2008, -10/+2Tiny dog is tiny.
  • themaestro18, on 07/17/2008, -12/+3How does this make the front page??
    • kickelephant, on 07/17/2008, -1/+1Because it's from the Onion and was hilarious.
  • mrzack, on 07/17/2008, -15/+26 years??? that is scientifically impossible. dog dont have time to eat or drink? i dont believe this article.
  • CornelisonRC, on 07/17/2008, -9/+17Solution: Punt the dog.
  • bjs3171, on 07/17/2008, -9/+2 i'm pretty sure that's the dog down my street. at this point MY dog just looks at him like "god, not this idiot again..."
    and yes, the barker on my street is a Westie.
  • Synge, on 07/17/2008, -9/+2Shoot her! SHOOOT HEEERRRR!
  • brickbat, on 07/17/2008, -10/+1Hmm.... Onion News Network?
  • tehknotte, on 07/17/2008, -10/+1There's a digg comment graveyard comin' 'Arry.
  • john2kx, on 07/17/2008, -9/+4dog --> window
  • rohcky, on 07/17/2008, -10/+1Didn't read the article. Does it bark while it eats?
  • truebeliever83, on 07/17/2008, -10/+5This "Onion News Network" is worse the Fox News in mho! Lets just say I find some of their stories to be . . . unbelievable.

    ;-)
    • tunapez, on 07/17/2008, -0/+1Me too, I had a hunch the WMD and Iraqi Sleeper Cell stories were pure fiction.


      This dog story, however, is fact...he lives next door. I can hear him now.
    • truebeliever83, on 07/17/2008, -0/+1Yes! I've been dugg down by those who didn't get my subtle sarcasm! I must be the savviest digger of them all
  • cdigioia, on 07/17/2008, -4/+44Like most household problems, this one too can be solved by a hammer.
    • darkened, on 07/17/2008, -1/+5Or duct tape.
      • cdigioia, on 07/17/2008, -0/+5As usual, duct tape is just a temporary solution. Use a hammer and do the job properly.
    • djclay, on 07/17/2008, -0/+1Did you know its a scientific fact that both dogs and cats blink when struck with a hammer?
    • Skooma714, on 07/18/2008, -0/+1But will it blend?
  • prickett233, on 07/17/2008, -8/+1Give it a Mae or Mawashi Geri to the head and it will soon shut the ***** up.
  • surfernerd6987, on 07/17/2008, -1/+11Heh, and the only reason I'm surfing Digg right now is because my neighbor's dog has been barking non-stop for 3 hrs now and I can't sleep
  • intrepidia, on 07/17/2008, -6/+6I usually find a prestone cocktail does the trick...
  • secondfiddle, on 07/17/2008, -6/+1Can you say C2 on the combination platter at Ah Choo's.
  • lead2thehead, on 07/17/2008, -5/+7I would take him to see Dr. Martens.
  • Totz83, on 07/17/2008, -1/+9Reminds me of the Screaming Caterpillar from the Simpsons

  • Mistaxe, on 07/17/2008, -10/+2Dog tourette's?

    *BARK* (translation: *****!)
    *BarkBARK* (translation: *****!!)

    Do other dogs get offended and ask him to "please be quiet"?
  • MacDevyn, on 07/17/2008, -13/+11and in other news 78% of Americans are totally rude. Digg me down, I dare you
  • tvolpe78, on 07/17/2008, -3/+7Saw this joke on the Simpsons 16 years ago...

    Kent Brockman: Tonight, on Eye on Springfield, we meet a man who has been hiccupping for 45 years.
    Hiccupper: *Hiccup* Kill Me *Hiccup* Kill Me.

    http://capefeare.com/ep_ismovie.php
  • ShisouKen, on 07/17/2008, -7/+1Solution: The Dog Whisperer
  • yahoofrom, on 07/17/2008, -7/+2Seems the dog has been saying "I wanna get laid" non stop.
  • TomT223, on 07/17/2008, -10/+5"Neighbor: I'd like to kill it"
    Kill the stupid owner first.
