601.9.3.3 of the USPS Domestic Mail Manual, as compared to 601.9.3.5. http://pe.usps.gov/text/DMM300/601.htm#wp1064884
I found this interesting in the regulations;
So you can mail humans as long as it’s for fighting.
Boxing humans?
I especially liked this bit of the article:
Dead puppies aren’t much fun.
Oh, I dunno… for a day or two they make great Beanie Babies.
Don’t you know, Happiness is a Warm Puppy?
Bark bark shoot shoot
Did you never see the Leave It to Beaver episode where Beaver sent away for a baby gator? In the '50s and early '60s, before trade in alligators was banned, they used to advertise them in comic books.
I don’t want to read the OP’s article because I’m still cracking up over the headline and don’t want that feeling ruined.
As RO goes this is pretty mild. It’s more like something-bad-that almost-happened: No puppies were killed in the making of this slightly-outrageous anecdote. You can go ahead and read the article fairly safely, I think.
I was curious to see if there was any further news.
There is…
Stacey Champion has been charged with animal cruelty for trying to mail a puppy from Minneapolis to Georgia last week. But now she wants the dog back.
My prediction: in a year she’ll be quarterback for the Vikings.
Unfortunately, I have been unable to locate any references to her weight
Imagine being the poor person who would have received this puppy, if they had not dropped the box. Nothing say Happy Valentine’s Day like a box full of Dead Puppy.
A) I thought the box just fell off the counter, presumably because the dog was bouncing around inside trying to escape.
B) My wife knows something of what this person would have felt like. But that’s another story.
