Oy. A bark-mitvah for a dog.

Today He Is a Dog; Actually, He Always Was

"You're not going to sing a blessing over the dog?"

"A real blessing?" said the cantor, laughing.

"It's a real bark mitzvah. Give him a blessing before he pees in my lap."

The cantor did, and Boomie didn't.

Somewhere there's a 13 year old Jewish kid who's dreaming of the attention from his parents that this dog is getting from wealthy people who have nothing more to do with their time and money than to parody an otherwise meaningful religious rite of passage.
