BERLIN: A thirsty German sold his 6-year-old step-daughter's pet beagle to the owner of a bar to pay for beer, the Bild newspaper has reported.


The unemployed man offered to take the dog for a walk and then stopped at a bar where he convinced the owner to buy the 3-year-old dog for 40 euros (about $50 US).

The man spent the proceeds quenching his thirst for beer. The bar owner has now returned the dog to its owner.

Homer: My daughter.
Man: [whistles] What a gambler!

I'm glad the girl got her dog back, at least the bar owner was a man about it not like her A-hole stepfather. ohno:

When I first heard it on the radio that is what I thought too, I imagine he was in "the dog house" with the wife after that one

I don't think even Homer Simpson would go that low for a beer.
