It is a rare dog that will sit around shooting the breeze with you, knocking back a cold one or two. Mango, my stepdaughter’s Pomeranian will not sit around shooting the breeze, but I get the distinct impression that he will knock back a few with you.

The most important aspect of getting your dog drunk, or even your step-daughter’s dog drunk (or perhaps even your neighbors dog drunk, were you so inclined), is to discover their poison of choice.

As a bonus, Mango is apparently a bit of slosh and not too fussy about his alcoholic beverages.

Once you are good to go with your alcohol, apply it liberally to the dog in question.

My thanks to my Mom (who takes very cool pictures), for passing along these photos of me, getting Mango all liquored up!

Thanks for stopping by and remember: There is a fine line between fishing and just standing on the shore like an idiot.
