Food magazines for all breeds must be kept strictly limited lest any dog become too rambunctious.&#0160; Dog owners should be &#39;outed&#39; and their names published in the paper.&#0160; Special taxes must be levied on all things canine to&#0160;offset the expenses incurred by society at large&#0160;
