The Choking Doberman: And Other Urban Legends (English Edition) Kindle版
"A wonderfully entertaining book of American folklore and humor."—Elaine Kendall, Los Angeles Times Book Review

This is a fascinating book, but I still say all those stories actually happened to the mother of a friend of mine's doctor's wife. --Roy Blount Jr."

The Choking Doberman

Very much enjoy anything along this line of story and hearing stories or "legends" from specific areas of the country makes it more fun to talk through with family. It is amazing how some of the stories grow and change and get to look nothing like the actual truth...fun fun.

Enjoyable read although perhaps a bit arrogant

When the author claims that no girl was ever date raped from a spiked drink EVER, I the average modern reader may agree that old folklorists are probably as naive as storytelling teenagers.
It is certainly annoying that people will believe even the most obvious yarns, and most of the stories here are obviously just legend. But a scholar should perhaps not categorically deny that no such stories could have any sort of true origin. We don't know if there was once a killer in someone's back seat, or in their medieval wagon of hay. Probably there wasn't but we don't know.
I came to this book looking for a specific tale that my friends claim happened to a friend and found it.* Very satisfying. But after reading this and the previous book I am perhaps no longer the world's biggest skeptic after all.
* elevator scene, Norwegian girl goes abroad for the first time to NYC, enters an elevator with what will later prove to be Eddie Murphy and two big friends or bodyguards with sunglasses. No dog in this version. "Hit the floor" in reference to floor buttons, at which point she ducks.
