Man's Ear Becomes Dog's Lunch

STOCKHOLM (Reuters) - A man in southern Sweden scared his neighbor's dog, which then tore off his ear and swallowed it, the Swedish daily newspaper Expressen reported on Monday.

The man was taken to hospital and the dog to the vet, who gave it an emetic to retrieve the neighbor's ear, but to no avail.

The dog's owner then agreed to let the vet perform stomach surgery.

The dog survived, but the ear didn't. When it finally reached the hospital four hours after being chewed off, it was no longer in any condition to be stitched back on.

Doctors said the dog's stomach acids had dissolved too much of it.

I'll have to remember that next time I purposefully try to piss of one of my ridgebacks. I'm always getting in their face or pushing them off the sofa or something. They get pissed off and growl like satan's dogs...I find it hilarious. They have never really snapped at me, however....at least...not yet. I just find it amusing when my dogs get into growling frenzies like their going to bite....but not at the cost of my ear.

And now for the rest of the story....The man's name was Reggie Miller...which explains everything.
