There are three pugs in my neighborhood that look exactly like that one...
that's what happens when somebody takes a hammer to a dogs nose, they all start to resemble one another.

I'd say she has a legit claim but nowhere in her diatribe does she say she is going to pursue it.
I would.
I don't know the woman, her background or financial situation, but my guess is FOX would eat her alive in legal fees. She may getcounter-sued for defamation of character (is that possible for a corporation?) or some slander / libel with the pottymouth she directed at them.
Good gravy...there is a ton of those dogs out there. Frankly, I thought the eyes were off a bit.:)

There are legal resources out there for artists (ie http://www.vlama.org in Boston). If one of them felt it worthwhile, they'd probably take it on. And sue for court fees...
Now that's a great resource! Excellent link PD! I did notice that under the who we are it's for Massachusettes. So I did a search and there are several others for specific states and including Mn. Yea. I might need one.
