I am outwaged dat while being sick, someone stole MY idea!!! I was hoping to pwofit fwom dis idea, but alas saw MY product featured on GMA today. I won't mention its name cause i don't want any of you getting shoddy merchandise. Mine would have been exclsively handmade, complete wif doxie slobbers!
Here's da heartwarming stowy of my inbention......One chilled wintry morning, I was lying in my bed shivering. Dat blanket cobering me wasn't keep me warm enouff... why not come up wif a way to get it wrapped around me, yet not letting it westwict my mobement. As I lay dere, de idea came to me!!! I began to chew frough da fleece, taking care not to swallow it. Once it was big enuff to fit my nose frough it was perfect!!! I pwefer to hab eberyfing unda da bwankie. I den wealized dat dis could be dangerous in da event dat a pupper had to get up and run. So I developed a sligtly larger Pawmade hole and den I stuck my head frough. BINGO!!! You cans walk around, eat, drink and eben chase bad guys all while wearing my pwoduct.
I have giben you da inswuctions to make yer own so youz don't hafta waste yer money on da product made by dose people who STOLE my idea. Here's a picture to pwove it. Dis was taken last March, but we didn't post it due to twying to get a patent.
:heart: Porky Pie
PS. please note dis as a pwototype, it is not necessawy to hab dat many holes in yers. I was twying to find da perfect spot!
Hahaha THATS AWESOME.
Porky you are So smart!
Porky that is BRILLIANT!!!
The sheer cheek of those people! We love your design and reckon you should have patented it. Love the poncho effect and it´s great for hiding the odd "love handle" too. How long does it take to make the finished pwoduct? Can you make them to order or can we, as associated teckels in Spain, under special Porkie-Pie granted licence, try making our own?
Depending on the sheer genius of the craftsman, this may take up to an hour to make. I, typically, can crack out 3 of these in a half hour. The key is to find the perfect placement for your desired comfort. The extra holes work great in the summer months as they provide extra air conditioning. Please feel free to make your own if you wish! Unlike my counterparts, I'm not after da money, simpwy twying to impwove doxie lives. :grin:
That made me LAUGH.
It's a shame they stole your idea Porky. Yours would have looked much better than theirs (I seen em too!) and yours would come with Porky DNA in the spit you leave from hole gnawin'. A much better deal all the way around. Now the world will never see it.

My mama helpeded me to write an email to da folks at Good morning America telling dem dat I alweady inbented dis fing. We don't fink we'll get an answer, but it would be neat iffen we did!!!! Mama putted a link to dis post in dat email, so wez hopin dey at least check it out. Really dese hoomans fink dey are so smart inbenting fings, but little do dey know all it takes is one "dumb ol' dog" to come up wif da same idea. Sewiuoswy....its a good fing Iz got my sense of humor intact, or I might take offense at da commercial. I feel bad for dat poor dog having to parade around in dere idea of what a dog would like. I hopes he or she got paid lots of moneys and treats for dat humiliation!!!
I was in another room recently and heard the commercial and thought "I didn't just hear them say that, did I?" I prefer the Porky made version.
