The Supreme Court has agreed to hear a dispute between Jack Daniel's and a dog toy company that sells chewable 'Bad Spaniels' whiskey bottles.

"It is ironic that America’s leading distiller of whiskey both lacks a sense of humor and does not recognize when it — and everyone else — has had enough," lawyers for VIP Products wrote in their"In the playful parodic tradition that has ranged over a half century [...] VIP put out a chewable dog toy."

"VIP has never sold whiskey or other comestibles, nor has it used 'Jack Daniel’s' in any way . It merely mimicked enough of the iconic bottle that people would get the joke," the filing said.

Note to Jack Daniels: Relax, people who consume your product will not be buying dog toys that don't contain alcohol.

The dog toy is obviously an expressive work entitled to first amendment protection.

Supreme Court takes Jack Daniel's case against dog toy makerWASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court said Monday it will hear a dispute over a dog toy that got whiskey maker Jack Daniel's barking mad.
