Council: Tubbs Hill a doggone dog park now

CUR d'ALENE -- Tubbs Hill is going to the dogs.

Literally.

In a stunning move last night, the Cur d'Alene City Council unanimously agreed that Tubbs Hill will become a full-fledged dog park -- with no two-legged critters allowed.

"We piddled around with the idea of letting tour groups hike it, kayaks float around it and all sorts of stuff like that," said Councilman Mike Caninedy. "But ultimately we decided that even though the fur would fly, this was the ideal location for a dog park."

"Before the public unleashes its furry -- I mean, fury," he said, "they should really consider what's most environmentally, you know, cool. Humans, particularly those from Spokane, leave cigarette butts, pop cans, beer bottles, plastic -- all sorts of crap. But the crap that dogs leave is biodegradable, man."

Someone at the press has a sense of humor!!
