Imagine you own a dog called Rover, Fido, Barney or something else. One day you are out walking your dog and throw a ball or stick or body part for the mutt to chase and return. Sadly you forget your arm strength and the object lands in the deep undergrowth. Dog runs into said undergrowth in a show of canine fidelity. Cur never returns.
You are heartbroken and confused. What happened to your dog? What happened to your ball, stick or body part? To which there is no answer. You are bereft. How can you replace such a loyal, steadfast, slobber chopped companion?
Simple! With a pie!
Could This Be The Family Pet Of The Future?
Gingerfightback conducted an opinion poll in a pie shop in east London to find out which pie would make the best pet. Not surprisingly Apple Pie came out top. But savoury pies took most of the top positions! We asked Professor Alfred T. Damp-Patch, Professor of Advanced Cobblers at the University of Salamanca for his views and he told us, “Really? How interesting. I’m allergic to short crust pastry. Where’s the bar?”

When we lived in Chichester there was this new pasty shop that only sold top quality Cornish pasties. Oh how I wish they had them over here. You wouldn’t need doggy bags for pies either 😉
Win win!
In China, they use their pies as food, not pets.
*prepares for blog to be inundated with anti-stereotype comments*
You are on your own Guap!
Pet of the future indeed!!! 🙂
Easy to look after and if you,are peckish…..
🙂 !!!!! a two-in-one product!!!!
Win win!
Haha! I would have to eat my pet!
In an emergency……
Walks will have to be quick…ice cream on top will melt (who get the first chomp of that?)
Ice cream pie…….mmmmmmm…..
Some people say the pie pet poop looks good enough to eat.
We all have our peccadillos John
As long as it is Pi Ping hot, who cares?
I can only crust your judgement
I know what happened to all your pets and balls etc in the undergrowth. The pie shop was hiding pet-kidnappers in there just so people would be forced to buy more pies for pets. Commercial impropriety, that’s what it is. I’m appalled!
Good – I am the Sweeney Todd of the canine world
But it would be so easy for someone’s dog to eat your pet! How can that be prevented? And will a pie fetch?
Fetch pie is delicious if you can catch it!
That must be a British thing. We don’t have fetch pie here. I suppose if you have a recipe though I could make it.
I threw it away but it keeps coming back
You are so wonderfully odd, you know that?
No!
’tis true.
I guess you are right. Denial is a burden……
In Newcastle there is the Sausage Emporium and they have a real sausage dog. I would opt for a sausage pie dog as a companion.
Woof woof!
I often replace things with pies, so I identify with this.
Good stuff!
I’m just stunned that steak and kidney didn’t rate higher! Perhaps we’re talking about seasonal pets!
I was shocked too Debra. But at the same time I was pleased to see savoury pies dominate
My family thinks my Cheesecake Pie is their best friend. If I’ve been making them they grab them up quickly and take them wherever they go.
