For all the fashion work they do, you'd think PETA would appreciate the canine self-empowerment that can only be experienced with haute couture, but apparently the organization wasn't happy with Vice's doggie fashion show on Wednesday night. "Bondage, chains, and choke collars belong in the bedroom with consenting, human adults," PETA spokeswoman Wendy Wegner tells us. But a source at Vice tells us the safe word of the night, "Woof," was never uttered!
Equally as troubling Wednesday night was the fact that the party's open bar ended one hour early, at 11 p.m. "Anytime a patron is promised free alcohol, and is met with such cruelty, we take that very seriously," a spokesperson from the Society for Libation Integrity* says. "Think of how many people were denied the self-aggrandizing feelings unique to alcohol intoxication—so many makeouts were dashed, so many cabbies denied that extra $4.00 tip from boozy generosity. Dogs are important, but these are people's lives we're talking about!"
*Not a real thing.
