XMASVILLE ~ Today the Xmasville animal control confirmed the report that Kris Kringle failed to pay the reindeer tax on Dasher, Dancer, Prancer, Vixen, Comet, Cupid, Donder and Blitzen. The reindeer are now in foster care until the tax is paid.
Rudolph is not among the confiscated reindeer. Rudolph’s tax is paid by a trust setup by his late friend the dentist.
When asked about the failure to pay the reindeer tax Santa stated “ This year has been hard, my sleigh has been repossessed, I’ve had to layoff 346 elf’s and I’ve had to hock my red suite.”
