I don’t think they have those. I don’t think they even have the buns.

They like hamburgers. Kim Jung Un invented the hamburger.

...noting where the "gift animals" came from -- which is intended to remind visitors of how much North Korea's leaders are loved and respected by leaders abroad.

A million dollar 'donation' to the Clintons got time for North Korea to produce nuclear bombs AND have a "Shih" Tzus... .. Hillary and Bill must be so proud - giving them a bitch...

Guess I should have included the , but didn't think it necessary. Let me try again.

Hot dog as in (dog on the barbeque). "Hot" dog. Get it?

They don’t have fire either.

I like my brother’s answer to the question “What kind of dog do you like?” “Well done”, he says. “Well done”.

We spent a few months in Guangzhou, China when my husband was there on work assignment.

They sold dogs in the open air food market, dead and alive (cats too.) When we went to the zoo, there was a German Shepherd in the cage right beside the wolf. We figured he was in there for safe keeping :)
