Judge Judy Proves Once And For All That Dogs Should Rule The World
If you think nothing good is happening in the world right now, you obviously have not seen this video of Judge Judy letting a dog decide its own fate.
In a case involving a man who claimed the dog a woman had bought for $50 on a sidewalk was in fact his stolen and beloved companion, Judge Judy decided the quickest route to justice would be through the sweet puppy itself. The judge had the dog brought out into the court, where it was put down and allowed to choose who its true owner was.
In the end, Judge Judy proves what we’ve always known to be true: if a dog were president, justice would be a given.

Did you know that only 2% of Forward readers donate to support our nonprofit newsroom? That 2% make it possible for millions to read the Forward without a paywall or subscription — removing any barriers to the full and fair Jewish story.
But while the Forward is free to read, it isn’t free to produce. Big stories — like deep dives into the antisemitism data, political scoops or reporting trips to college campuses — take months of research and fact-checking. All while we keep you informed of what you need to know each day.
