When I was 10 or 11 there was this annoying kid in the neighborhood who would say crazy shit, like that he had a dirt bike with invisible shocks and an invisible dog that lived in his attic and only barked at night. I guess he needed attention or who knows what. He may have been kind of screwed up because of his dad. His dad was a nice enough guy and I don't think he was an asshole to Josh, but I think because his dad had a local tv show Josh felt both arrogant and a little weird. Or maybe it was because his dad's name was Dick Klinger. I never thought about it when I was a kid but I have no idea where the invisible dog thing came from. Maybe he was just talking shit and it came out because he had just told us about the invisible shocks on his bike. I do know that you would have a very difficult time moving dogs like that in today's pet marketplace, even if you employed an agressive e-commerce strategy. You would probably have to offer a pretty liberal return policy that would end up killing your margins.
