Hopefully, you've pissed on the dog to let it know the natural order of things around your house.

I would assume they put liquid damage sensors in these computers just as they do cell phones

Last week in a conversation over lunch at work Apple Care came up. At least with a phone, a coworker took a broken phone in and was given the opportunity to buy Apple Care on said product once again in a first transaction, then they immediately were able to get a replacement phone in the next transaction since it was now covered.

It may be worth a try if the cashier seems like they'd be cool enough to work with you

(This all being contingent upon Apple Care covering piss)

You didn't get it insured? Rookie mistake.

When was the laptop purchased? Assuming it was bought with a credit card, you might have some accidental coverage on your purchase.

A lot of credit cards have 30 day accidental coverage. Might be worth looking into.

Obviously this whole situation is karma for subjecting us to all these spambots on the board.

Perhaps your dog was maybe skyping with a fellow K9, and the other dog told a great joke and your dog pissed himself laughing. Can hardly blame the guy.

Credit cards don't have dumb ass coverage though.

Was finally able to open the case tonight after ordering a special screwdriver kit (fuck you and your proprietary screws, Apple) to make sure the circuit board was cleaned off. There was a little pee in there but just little drops here and there. Took a chance and gave it power and it seems to be working fine.
