"mentally responsible for his actions"? Eh? Anyway, how would a dog do the nazi salute? Are they interpretating an outstretched "shake paw" as a nazi salute? Some dogs do that with their paws straight out.

They also arrested a goose for goose-stepping.

The dog, a German shepherd crossbreed named Adolf

But Carola Ruff, of a Berlin animal welfare group, said there was nothing strange about Adolf's behaviour

Ruff ruff...like how they play with names/wording. This is over the top, yet looking at this guy's fencing wonder if he is a neighborhood menace, has the same sharp stakes on the dog house too, ouch.

Everybody knows that Hitler loved dogs, but the question remains: Did Dogs Love Hitler??

I was just thinking, that if you could train the dog to turn the lights on and off, he could be a shabbat goy. For that matter, a monkey could do the job , too. Oh, wait a minute...
