History Bad-Ass Dog Mocked Nazis, Got Away With It
Posted by Charmaine Pritchett on Fri, Jan 7, 2011 at 5:13 PM
Recent news indicates that dogs can be offensive and get away with it.
Adolf Hitler, one of the most ruthless men in history, has recently been found to have had difficulty in dealing with the smack of a Finnish dog and the dog's mockery of their regime, in documents that have recently been released.
In 1933, a man named Tor Borg and his wife Josefine were called out due to the accusations from someone that the dog was seen raising his paw when hearing the chant of "Heil Hitler." The Nazis were said to have been "obsessing" over the case two months before they invaded the Soviet Union. They were attempting to bring Borg to trial and to destroy his pharmacieutical company. Due to finding no witnesses willing to speak on the stand, the case was dropped when the Nazis deemed the case unsolvable.
