Funniest. Dog. Ever.

Today while conducting my daily perusal of wine news and blogs, I came across one of the funniest stories I've ever seen. This article features a Labrador from New Zealand who in her owners absence came across two casks of wine holding about 4 liters worth of vino. After tearing the boxes open, Roxy the dog proceeded to drink all the white wine before passing out cold. After a scary night in the hospital, the poor thing had one wicked hangover, but eventually made a full recovery.

The quotes from the owner (who happens to be a liquor merchandiser) are probably the best part of the story. Here's her retelling of arriving at the vet - "By the time I saw her at the clinic, she was comatose. She was lying flat on her side, and if she was a human, you would swear she was singing. I guess she was also telling me she was really, really sorry, I was the best friend she has ever had, and she will never do it again."

You can read the entire story for yourself here. It makes for a great Friday laugh.
