A brilliant idea turned into a sub-par hoax, don’t go planning a trip to Florida with fluffles just yet. The idea behind Dog Island is that abused, homeless and abandoned dogs of all shapes and sizes have a wide-open, natural habitat free for them to roam around and enjoy the life of a dog. The island has a full-time staff, running an immunization center, an injury/trauma center, and much more. Natural prey are released onto the island as a main source of food, with supplemental foodstuffs being available for the more passive canines. The idea was brilliant (in my honest opinion), this coming from someone who wants to open his own dog farm in Montana, but unfortunately, the doggy island paradise is not to be. Several years ago, Snopes AKA the internet detective agency, ruled Dog Island to be a hoax. They also confirmed that land prices on the REAL Dog Island off the coast of Florida are insanely high.
