Oh Henry! 4:25 - Hunger Detecting Dogs
2019
The legalization of cannabis in Canada had an unintended consequence: it forced dozens of marijuana sniffing detector dogs out of work. Their specialized skills were no longer needed.
But these dogs can detect 4:20, which means they can tell who has the munchies. Which means they could still be very useful to Oh Henry! 4:25, the bar designed for the hunger that hits 5 minutes after 4:20. We had a chance to create a whole new line of work for them.
So on 4/20/2019, we brought some professionals out of retirement.
