– 1040-DOG Income Tax Return –

March 22, 2004 – It's less than a month away. We all know it – and we all hate it. April 15 is the deadline for filing our 2003 personal income tax forms. Each and every year, millions of Americans struggle for days (if not weeks) to complete their federal tax forms by April 15th.

During the weeks preceeding the April 15th deadline, most of us are so busy with our own tax forms that we don't even notice the furtive activity of our furry pets. Well guess what, folks? They have tax returns, too. We never see the 1040-PET forms because our pets – and especially our dogs – do not want their fiscal secrets revealed. Most dogs prefer to be regarded as dependents, and they certainly don't want to divulge their net worth, or any of the outrageous shenanegans they've pulled during the past 12 months. As such, they go to great lengths to hide their US Individual Canine Income Tax Returns, aka the 1040-DOG.

Last week I managed to obtain a copy of one of these elusive 1040-DOG forms. I found it under Merlin's favorite doggie-bed, right next to a well-chewed volume of "The Hidden Life of Dogs."
 

A full-size, high resolution 1040-DOG form is now available printed on t-shirts and sweatshirts. If you like the idea of being stopped by strangers so they can read your chest (and who wouldn't?!) then you definitely need one of these shirts. Be the first on your block to own one. Or give a 1040-DOG shirt to your favorite accountant, vet or breeder. Visit us at www.DogWare.com
