Oh, The Humanity!

LONDON, England (AP) -- A guard dog has ripped apart a collection of rare teddy bears, including one once owned by Elvis Presley, during a rampage at a children's museum.

"He just went berserk," said Daniel Medley, general manager of the Wookey Hole Caves near Wells, England, where hundreds of bears were chewed up Tuesday night by the 6-year-old Doberman pinscher named Barney.

...A security guard at the museum, Greg West, said he spent several minutes chasing Barney before wrestling the dog to the ground.

LOL. Bad Dog!

Perhaps there's an opening for Barney at the Fire Hydrant Museum after he loses this gig.

BTW, the "after" photo at CNN is golden (click on Next).

Swift...put a guard dog to work protecting a building that hold what very much look to him like chew toys.

Genius, pure...genius.

Sandy, this one IS the original thread.   SOA didn't see this one.  Charon beat the buzzer by a day!

"Oh let me be your teddy bear"   That guard was fired yesterday.

NP Sandy, "ain't no thing" either way.

Too bad about the guard, but -- that photo just cracks me up. The guard actually seems somewhat "amused" by the results and the dog is just being a dog... "some nice play, now for some dinner and water and perhaps a good ball licking..." You can just picture the scene as a beserk (ie. joyfully playful) Barney reacts like you would expect of a bull in a china shop or a dog in a stuffed animal museum :)
