crackadog


Gone crazy, insane: Sally had gone crackadog.

Contributor's comments: I first heard/read this on the television program/book "All Creatures Great and Small", set in Yorkshire. Vet James Herriott had a client Mrs Pumphrey who had a repulsive mollycoddled canine. This dog suffered from a condition similar to epilepsy. Mrs Pumphrey used the word "crackerdog" to describe these episodes.
