While my dog’s DNA results raised many questions, it definitively answered only one: I am that stupid. I guess you can’t argue with science or whatever the hell this is.

1) 50% Chow Chow My 17-pound, squatty, course-haired mutt being half Chow Chow is surprising, especially since I haven’t laid eyes on a chow since the early ’90s. What is truly mind-blowing, though, is that I paid for this information and expected it to be accurate. I’m surprised that I’m surprised.

2) 25% Beagle Part beagle? Please. Who isn’t? For a breed that looks like it wouldn’t be able to fuck its way out of a paper sack, those long-eared lotharios get around. I watched one micro-hump the air in front of him for 15 minutes with nary a female in sight. Beagle feels like it came from a carnival psychic rather than a geneticist.

My cousin works at a vet’s office that specializes in bulldog artificial insemination and c-sections. She holds the males while a Veterinarian “collects the sperm.” The vet gets paid the big bucks to do it, too. Mo money, mo problems as the Notorious B.I.G. said.
