Cute Alert: Baby Dachshund Paddles in the Bathtub!

GiggleSugar — Wed, 08 Oct 2008 07:00:00 -0700

This pup seems uncertain about what's going on here. Well, let me break it to you, buddy. You're taking a bath, and being exploited for your ridiculous cuteness for all to enjoy. (You'll get used to it. The shameless exploitation, I mean.)

Cute Alert: Doggie Runs in His Sleep

GiggleSugar — Tue, 07 Oct 2008 09:00:00 -0700

Although he's lying on the carpet sleeping in the middle of an ordinary suburban home and being watched over by a stuffed Dalmatian, this pup seems to think he's running over hill and dale. We'll just leave him to his cute dreams. It's probably lunchtime soon, anyway.

Cute Alert: Giant Hamster ... I Mean, Tiny Dog

GiggleSugar — Sun, 05 Oct 2008 01:00:00 -0700

Or maybe a ball of dryer lint someone conjured to life. I don't think there are any bones in those wobbly little legs. Either way, I want one!

Best Security Guard Ever

GiggleSugar — Fri, 03 Oct 2008 09:00:00 -0700

But will this furry dude know how to dispense my daily Lotto ticket or lead me to the Funyuns? Doubtful. Cute only gets you so far.

Little Dog Gets Excited While Eating

GiggleSugar — Thu, 02 Oct 2008 13:00:00 -0700

. . . and manages to levitate his entire lower half into the air. Hey, a primo pile of nachos has the same effect on me.

Izzy Gets His Opera On

GiggleSugar — Mon, 29 Sep 2008 16:00:00 -0700

Izzy the dog was just lying around one day when suddenly, German opera on television moved him to join in. You will laugh your ass off, but your ears may never forgive you. (It's practically dog day here at GiggleSugar. Imagine that! Don't worry, cats, I still love you!)

Don't Pass Out Around This Little Dog . . .

GiggleSugar — Mon, 29 Sep 2008 13:00:00 -0700

Especially if you're a drunk dude. He's what you call an opportunistic smoocher. If this doesn't get the guy off hooch when he wakes from his ~~slumber~~ blackout, I don't know what will.

Doggie's Got Some Issues We All Can Relate To

GiggleSugar — Mon, 29 Sep 2008 11:00:00 -0700

You know how sometimes the only barrier that keeps us from what we want is in our minds? Well, Isabelle the doggie illustrates that perfectly here. Her human companions have removed the screen from the screen door, but because Isabelle is used to going out only when it's opened, she won't budge. They stick their hands through it to show her, but —nope, you gotta open it. GiggleSugar's philosophy lesson du jour: it's all in your head, yo!

The Best Song You'll Hear All Day

GiggleSugar — Mon, 29 Sep 2008 07:00:00 -0700

He likes dogs cuz dogs are cool. (How could you argue with that?) I'm digging the minimalism and sentiment of this amazing music video. But even better? I'm really loving the long, black mullet wig. 'Tis a sublime thing of beauty that makes me weep.

The Underminer: We All Know One!

GiggleSugar — Thu, 25 Sep 2008 12:00:00 -0700

We all know an Underminer. These folks pass off insults as compliments, condescension as concern, and disses as advice. This Underminer, however, has gone too, too far. He has insulted little Checkers, to which I say, a dog with hair this good is untouchable. Step away from Checkers. Or I may have to hurt you.

Cute Alert: Little Dog Herds a Horse!

GiggleSugar — Thu, 25 Sep 2008 08:00:00 -0700

This little doggie, who seems to go by the name "Cheeps," is clearly the boss of this horse. I kept thinking he was gonna get stepped on, but with his assertiveness and leadership, he got the job done! Good boy, Cheeps!

Cute Alert: Bubba the Dog Loves Burritos

GiggleSugar — Mon, 22 Sep 2008 10:00:00 -0700

In fact, Bubba can eat a bean burrito almost as fast as I can eat nachos. Almost. Wouldn't you like to see that contest?

Cute Alert: Dancing With the Dogs!

GiggleSugar — Fri, 19 Sep 2008 07:00:00 -0700

We've shown you this woman dancing with her adorable dog before, but here's another video of her hoofin' it up on Good Morning America a few years ago to "You're the One That I Want" from the Grease soundtrack. (These two should be contestants on So You Think You Can Dance. You know — to mix things up a bit.)

Someone's Waiting for His Bedtime Story

GiggleSugar — Mon, 15 Sep 2008 04:00:00 -0700

"Whatcha waitin' for? Can I hear Goodnight Moon tonight?"

This Poor Pup Has an Interesting Phobia

GiggleSugar — Sun, 14 Sep 2008 02:00:00 -0700

And a family not unwilling to spend a lot of time documenting him doing nothing so that they can capture it, finally, on film. I love how the family cat is totally unimpressed by any of it.

Cute Alert: Max, the Lettuce-Lovin' Doggie

GiggleSugar — Thu, 11 Sep 2008 15:00:00 -0700

I think Max the Papillon pup must've just finished reading The Omnivore's Dilemma, because now all he wants to eat is lettuce! His cute human companion (who also asks him if he wants to watch CNN!) has such a soothing, sweet voice. Oh, Max. You're ridiculously cute, and thanks to you, I now want a Caesar salad!

Whasssuuuup?!

GiggleSugar — Thu, 11 Sep 2008 04:00:00 -0700

Alternate title: 'Sup, dog? (Did someone give these pooches some coffee?)

Thanks, College Humor!

Puppy vs. Door Stop

GiggleSugar — Fri, 05 Sep 2008 10:05:00 -0700

"This menacing low growl you hear is the sound of one pissed off pup. What am I upset about? This infernal door stop that haunts my days and nights. It just sits there silently taunting me. But I will vanquish it with my tiny, cute, completely nonthreatening hatred! Just you wait and see . . ."

Cute Alert: Big Dog Plays With Tiny Kitten

GiggleSugar — Tue, 02 Sep 2008 08:00:00 -0700

It's kinda hard not to worry while you're watching this that the dog is going to crush that kitty like a can, but it's as gentle as it can be. Meanwhile, the kitty seems to be ready for more. So freaking cute!

Doggie Loves the Trampoline

GiggleSugar — Mon, 01 Sep 2008 08:39:28 -0700

Ahhh, the pure joy of jumpin' around on a trampoline! This doggie's loving the trampoline almost as much as I love lying in bed, reading trashy magazines and drinking coffee on my day off. Sweeeeet. Hope you guys are chillaxin', too!

Dog Vs. Roomba

GiggleSugar — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 07:00:00 -0700

This dog has met the enemy, and its name is the automated floor-cleaner Roomba. It's all fun and games until someone loses an eye (or robot equivalent). Wait for the surprise ending. . .

Round Pup Tries to Fit in Square Hole

GiggleSugar — Wed, 20 Aug 2008 07:08:26 -0700

No matter how hard Jeter tries, he simply can't squeeze his little butt into that even tinier space between the cabinet and the floor. But he sure does look cute trying.

Interspecies Lovin': A Dog, a Cat, and a Rat

GiggleSugar — Tue, 19 Aug 2008 14:00:00 -0700

Meet Gregory Pike and his motley menagerie of cutie pies, namely, Booger the dog, Kitty the cat, and Mousey the rat. He swears that they get along because they were raised together, and not through some trick of extreme discipline or drugs or mistreatment. I want to believe! (I love when someone pets Mousey and Gregory says, "Don't knock the flea off!" Tee hee.)

Doggie Slip 'n' Slide!

GiggleSugar — Tue, 19 Aug 2008 12:00:00 -0700

"Summertime/and the livin' is easy/Slip 'n' slide/and just do it again . . ." You know the person filming this had to make a decision to end the video at some point. I imagine it went on for quite a while! I should have just called this, "Doggie Paradise."

Cute 'N' Sleepy

GiggleSugar — Fri, 15 Aug 2008 07:00:00 -0700

It's been a while since we've had an installment of Cute 'N' Sleepy, but that certainly is not because of a dearth of cute things gettin' sleepy out there! Better late than never. Check this little dude out. He's the tiredest pup you ever did see. Someone get him a pillow! He's totally ready for his nap.

This Cat Is a Total Punkass

GiggleSugar — Thu, 14 Aug 2008 07:00:00 -0700

You know I love me some cats, but when they're this obnoxious, it's hard to excuse them. (That dog had the patience of Job — for a little while, anyway.) An oldie but goodie . . .

Guilty as Charged!

GiggleSugar — Tue, 12 Aug 2008 07:00:00 -0700

This little guy can feign innocence all he wants — his guilt is written all over his cute, furry face. Oh, yeah. And there's tons of evidence.

Move Over Cats With Cheezburgers!

GiggleSugar — Thu, 07 Aug 2008 10:20:00 -0700

There's some competition in town! And these dogs mean business.

Thanks, I Has a Hot Dog!

Cute Alert: Border Collie Herds His Reflection

GiggleSugar — Thu, 07 Aug 2008 09:00:00 -0700

This is a little Zen video poem on dogs, virtual reality, and suburbia. I think it is perfection.

Puppy Steals Baby's Thunder

GiggleSugar — Tue, 05 Aug 2008 15:00:00 -0700

What an attention hog! This guy's trying to teach his infant son Christian how to high-five (a crucial skill set for this age group, I hear). But puppers in the corner wants to show him how it's done, and how easy it is. Are you going to let him get away with this, Christian? What a showoff!

Cute Alert: Hairless Cat and Chihuahua Messin' Around

GiggleSugar — Thu, 31 Jul 2008 11:00:00 -0700

I love found footage like this. Daisy the Sphynx cat (aka the hairless breed) is calmly watching as her brother Luke messes around with the family Chihuahua, Chacha, while "I'll Be Home For Christmas" plays in the background! It's so cute how gentle Chacha is with Luke, and vice versa. They're just giving each other little love bites. We should all get along this well.

Dog Not That Into Technology

GiggleSugar — Tue, 29 Jul 2008 11:00:00 -0700

I'm not sure what this dog is responding to: the speaker phone function on this phone, or the annoying voice that's being transmitted from it. Either way, let's just assume we're not going to see him standing in those long lines for the next new iPhone. (Don't worry cute dog, I hate technology, too!)

Best Music Video Ever

GiggleSugar — Sun, 27 Jul 2008 01:00:00 -0700

You've got your flying dogs in slo-mo. You've got your '80s laser graphics. You've got some bitchin' French music from Vitalic. There's really not much else you could ask for. Watch it all the way through so you can see the dog shaking water off his coat — he looks like one of those car wash rollers!

Tiny Dog Has Been Barking Nonstop for 6 Years

GiggleSugar — Fri, 18 Jul 2008 07:00:00 -0700

Meet Taffy. She's cute, but she's been barking nonstop for six years straight. In her sleep. While she eats. Perhaps even when she moves to the great beyond. I think we all live near a Taffy. . .

Cute Alert: Man Sings Pups to Sleep at Bedtime

GiggleSugar — Tue, 15 Jul 2008 07:00:00 -0700

Holy crap. The icicles that guard my frozen heart are melting into a piddling puddle as I watch this video. This adorable man croons "Goodnight, Sweetheart" to a bunch of whining puppies who, as if by magic, slowly get into snuggle position and fall asleep. Dude, this may straight up kill you if you don't chase it with a little bit of cynicism. As it says on the side of the Dr. Bronner's Peppermint Soap bottle — "Dilute! Dilute!"

Marmaduke Says "Interview Over!"

GiggleSugar — Sun, 13 Jul 2008 02:00:00 -0700

"Blah, blah, blah. When is this infernal interview going to be finished? It's time for my snack and a walk in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. . ."

Thanks, eBaum's World!

Ruh Roh!

GiggleSugar — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 15:00:00 -0700

Poor Moses Chan, a giant French Mastiff who is more than 5 feet tall when on his hind legs. It seems that the 14-month-old pooch has Species Identity Disorder, thinking he's a cat like his four siblings. This got him into trouble recently when he tried to go through the cat door and got stuck for two hours. He was finally rescued by firefighters. "He seems to think he's a cat," says owner Lisa Saberi, who had only had him for a week when he got into this flap — literally. "He is always trying to play with them," she continued, "and he tries to eat their food if I'm not watching." Silly dog — cat doors are for cats!

Cute Alert: Doggie Taps Paw to Rhythm of Music

GiggleSugar — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 11:00:00 -0700

There's no reason that humans should be the the only ones who get to pretend to play an instrument in Rock Band. So maybe there are no fancy graphics or scores for performance, but doggers here seems to be doing fine without that. I give him a perfect score — go doggie!

Cute Alert: Panda Dog

GiggleSugar — Mon, 07 Jul 2008 07:00:00 -0700

It's a dog. It's a panda. It's a panda dog! (Actually, I think it's just a dog who looks like a panda.) All I know is, holy crap that thing is cute! And I bet he knows it, too.

Cute Alert: Doggie Method Acting

GiggleSugar — Thu, 03 Jul 2008 11:00:00 -0700

Brando the pooch here reaches deep into the center of his being and experience to show us: "Confused." I bet he's going to be hearing from James Lipton and the Actors' Studio peeps pretty soon . . .

Cute Alert: Jitterbug the Pygmy Goat Stands on His Friend

GiggleSugar — Wed, 02 Jul 2008 10:00:00 -0700

You've heard people say, "lean on me." Well little Jitterbug the pygmy goat thinks, why lean on when you can stand on! And that's just what he and his little punk twin Rocky do to patient Buren, the Great Pyrenees livestock guardian dog. They're eight-weeks-old now. I don't think Buren's gonna be so sweet about it in a few months. . .

Cute Alert: Puppy Too Sleepy For Drinky

GiggleSugar — Tue, 01 Jul 2008 13:00:00 -0700

Who said you can't take a sip, sneak in some ZZZs, and soak your feet, too? It's not exactly a hot tub — the temp's on the cold side, there are no bubble jets, and the little guy's siblings keep sticking their damn tongues in the water — but it's all good. His bros will be jealous of these cuticles come tomorrow. You just wait.

Cute Alert: Destructive Pup Thinks the World Is His Chew Toy

GiggleSugar — Tue, 01 Jul 2008 07:00:00 -0700

You don't know cute until you've seen this fluffy Pomeranian rip the guts out of a stuffed chicken, chew on his bedding, and then yank the thread out of a blankie. He pretty much takes a chunk out of anything in sight, so when he looks over his shoulder in your direction at the beginning . . . prepare.

Dog Surfing Competition

GiggleSugar — Mon, 30 Jun 2008 11:59:00 -0700

Check out the dog-surfing competition from this past weekend! Nuh uh! Ya huh!

Cute Alert: Bulldog Is Tickled Pink

GiggleSugar — Mon, 30 Jun 2008 07:00:00 -0700

I've always thought bulldogs looked like the Ernest Borgnines of the canine world. This cutie helps prove my point. Among the many differences between this bulldog and Ernest Borgnine: Bully looks pretty cute being tickled. (I imagine the reverse would not be true.) Thanks for the send, Fuzzles!

Just Watch This and You Will Explode

GiggleSugar — Fri, 27 Jun 2008 10:30:00 -0700

This cute doggie is so confused. He's hearing the distress calls from a little Scottish fold kitty (I swear to you I just saw this video yesterday!) and he wants to help, but he doesn't know how. It reminds me of the scene in Star Wars when Luke Skywalker is cleaning up R2D2 and the film image of Princess Leia projects out with the message, "Help me Obi Wan Kenobi, you're my only hope!" Only here, it's starring cute little animals! Gah! I'm dying.

Just Pet the Dog, Dammit!

GiggleSugar — Thu, 26 Jun 2008 15:00:00 -0700

Buster spends his whole day being man's best friend; is a little reciprocity asking too much? He thinks not. So when he doesn't get the love and attention he deserves, Buster busts out his no-fail secret weapon. Here's how it goes: Don't bark, just look. Look as sad and needy as one manipulative and profoundly pushy dog can possibly manage. And then wait for it, wait for it . . .

Cute Alert: Puppies Chase Boy

GiggleSugar — Thu, 26 Jun 2008 03:00:00 -0700

Oh, man. This is so relentlessly cute that I kept waiting for a disaster to strike, or a streaker to come out onto the field or something to ruin the perfection. But nope, just a cute giggling boy chased by a gaggle of adorable puppies. Let's just turn off the cynicism and enjoy. Thanks, College Humor!

Singing Dog Available for all Your Party Needs

GiggleSugar — Sun, 22 Jun 2008 02:00:00 -0700

Rhythm, blues, soul — this pup does it all, without any of that beginner barking bullsh*t. He sings in every language, hits all the high notes, and he's got spots. Lotsa sexy spots. For the ladies. So when's your next bachelorette party? Those are his specialty.

Out-of-Control Snacking Dog Needs an Intervention

GiggleSugar — Tue, 17 Jun 2008 07:00:00 -0700

Once this Siberian Husky figures out how to push down the dog bone lever and get some goodies out of this gum ball machine, he keeps at it full-force. Never mind the other dog patiently waiting and salivating in front of him — she'll just have to wait her turn. After this serving. Or the next. Seven back-to-back servings later . . .
