Bob Dylan would be a curly coated retriever if he were a dog. He would have an “oily coat that traps air and insulates in water” and a good sense of smell. Pate Doherty, on the other hand, would be a Norweigan elkhound, known for his willful personality and adeptness at hunting bear. Brittney Spears is a Tibetan Terrier, “an appealing, shaggy little dog, which makes a sturdy, loyal pet.” Ouch.
This according to the breed description provided by the UK Kennel Club, in association with the Gone to the Dogs Canine Algorithmic Transfer System that allows players to determine what kind of dog they would be. According to the site (click on games) the answers are generated by SUKA, a computer “built in 1975 by Russian scientist Mikhail Volkonsky and now housed in a London museum.”
There’s a reason we’re telling you about thiz at 6:30 P.M. Now you’ll have something to amuse yourself with for the entire post-sugar-high-Halloween-hangover Wednesday we are facing tomorrow. And if you’re lame and stay in all evening ignoring trick or treaters, you can amuse yourself by turning people into dogs.
