    BERLIN (Reuters) - A thirsty German sold his 6-year-old step-daughter's pet beagle to the owner of a bar to pay for beer, the Bild newspaper reported Friday.

    The unemployed man offered to take the dog for a walk and then stopped at a bar where he convinced the owner to buy the 3-year-old dog for 40 euros ($53).

    The man spent the proceeds quenching his thirst for beer. The bar owner has now returned the dog to its owner.

    The guy should be liquidised, distrilled, and brewed into beer.

    I bet it'd taste cheap.

    He gave the dog back? What a jackass. Now the guy can sell it again, make some money, and some poor sucker will give it back to the kid. She's in on it. It's a scam I tells ya.

    I guess it could have been worse... he could have tried selling his step-daughter.

    Eugh, i hate the idea that people might even consider doing this with any domestic animal, let alone a loved one's pet.
