Tiny Dot

by Meg on June 24, 2006

Oh, PLEASE. Just when you think things cannot get any cuter, you open your mail to discover "Tiny Dot" the BEBEH BOSTON TERRIER. He was obviously placed on this earth to KEEL US. Don’t look directly at the ear flop—filter it with your fingers.

I hope your life insurance info is up-to-date, Binky.

MOIST NOSICLE!

3 Aly 06.24.06 at 8:53 pm

Oh HELLS NO. That is TOO CUTE.

*thud*

4 Shannon L 06.24.06 at 8:58 pm

omg…no…

I *hate* (hatehatehate) little breeds like this, but I almost died when I saw this one!!

Like…gasp-choke-swoon-heartattack. No joke. xD

5 Nickole 06.24.06 at 8:59 pm

He looks like he’s standing up against a wind from the front. Even his eyes are blown out of position…

6 Jackie from Michigan 06.24.06 at 8:59 pm

How come Bostons are so cute as puppies but holy terrors when they are older? The neighbors down the street have a Boston and that thing is out for blood; another Boston that was on our block when I was a kid would escape from its yard and follow you for blocks.
Oh well, gotta give props to the ear flops.

I see evil in the cute…

That dude’s got iguana eyes.

10 Ayumi 06.24.06 at 9:21 pm

JUST LOOK AT THE WITTLE NOOOOOOOOSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

11 Nickole 06.24.06 at 9:26 pm

Jackie: If Bostons weren’t cute as puppies, the breed never could have survived this long.

It’s like the cuteness of the puppy drowns the little, rational voice which says: “This dog going to grow up. You have approximately six months of cute puppyhood. Then comes the sixteen years of hellish doghood.”

12 Alicat 06.24.06 at 9:31 pm

I think if you ever owned a boston you’d know why it is a popular breed. They are the best dogs in the world — and the cutest. And they aren’t THAT small, Shannon.

13 Mel 06.24.06 at 9:34 pm

I did it! I looked directly at the ear flops! I think I’ve had an aneurysm.

14 hibousoir 06.24.06 at 9:35 pm

Okay, all my teeth just shattered and crumbled out of my mouth. Thanks a lot CuteOverload! I’m sending you my dentist bill!

15 Nickole 06.24.06 at 9:40 pm

Alicat: Maybe they are the best dog in the world if you own one. But if you are the person walking your dog meeting one, then they on the whole are the angriest, noisiest, most suicidal breed known.

16 Melanie 06.24.06 at 10:02 pm

Oh man, I’ve got to learn to read the warning label before I look at the pictures.. the ear flaps, the ear flaps, the ear flaps!

17 Lauri 06.24.06 at 10:21 pm

Oooooooh. The tiniest Moist Nosicle EVER.

It’s more like a Moist Nosule.

I saw a tiny calf today and he had the most beautiful moist nosicle. Next time I am taking my camera!

18 ceebs 06.24.06 at 10:22 pm

oh STOP! Stop being so cute, how can you stand to be so cute???? stop stop stop! i can’t take it!!!

19 Brak_Silverbone 06.24.06 at 10:45 pm

He looks confused!

20 Hannah 06.24.06 at 11:01 pm

OMG OMG OMG, THERE IS NO BETTER PUPPY THEN THIS!!!!

(Snorgles screen)

21 Kay 06.24.06 at 11:07 pm

OMG!!11!!!!!

I wanna sqeeeeeeeeeeeze him!!

22 maymee 06.24.06 at 11:37 pm

He almost looks as if he’s part bunny. There MUST be some buns in his family tree.

23 Theo 06.24.06 at 11:38 pm

Good gaaalgh… am I gonna have to add “Moist Nosicle” to the Glossary?

24 Dawn 06.24.06 at 11:45 pm

HOW CUUUUUUUUUUTE!!! Can I adopt him? PLEEEAAAASSSE?

25 Mia 06.24.06 at 11:51 pm

26 chrissylte 06.25.06 at 12:31 am

27 kawauso 06.25.06 at 2:38 am

so cuuuuuuuuutttteeee. i’ve been wanting a boston terrier ever since my friend caroline had hers.

28 lilybunny 06.25.06 at 2:55 am

THis is the first Cute Overload entry that has litterally made me tremble with the cuteness. I SHOOK with cute overwhelmedness!

I used to have a Boston they are the sweetest things. Crazy and all get out, but so much fun. I miss my Savananna Banana Poundcake. Must got look at cute puppy more.

*trembles*

29 Aubrey 06.25.06 at 2:55 am

Sometimes I wonder why animals are given certain names. But in this case I would say ‘Boston’ fits this pup to a tea.

30 Merri 06.25.06 at 3:43 am

I actually screamed when I saw this little baby! This is amazing considering I am not a dog person. This little one is adorable! xoxoxo

31 jake 06.25.06 at 3:49 am

ugh… one of the few dog breeds i can’t stand, and not even the bug eyed puppies can redeem their ugliness…

32 Claire 06.25.06 at 3:53 am

I love how this sweet things little muzzlepuffs arn’t as big as the ones on the Heli-bunny below.

33 cuteness lover 06.25.06 at 4:10 am

I love the eyeballs! I love the ears, I love I love it I love it!some one please give him a treat! Oh dear, thats how my dog got so fat. *must remember not to give treats just because animal is cute*

34 cuteness lover 06.25.06 at 4:16 am

Why must people say negative things about such a cutie? All dogs can be annoying at some point, even big ones, sheesh, just except it for what it is, a cute little puppy with a wet nose.

35 AliceTanzer 06.25.06 at 4:19 am

Oh for the love of…God..Look at him. He’s all crosseyed. Cant you just imagine him with cute little glasses? ;_;

36 Charlie 06.25.06 at 4:22 am

As a Boston University alumni, I approve of this puppy.

37 ElfOwl, B.S., M.A., I.W.T.F.M. 06.25.06 at 4:52 am

Well, Aubrey, I’m glad you figured out the etymology of the name, cuz I don’t know beans about it. :-P

Gotta say, I’m not a fan of the bulgy eye dogs, but it *is* a PUPPY!

38 ElfOwl, B.S., M.A., I.W.T.F.M. 06.25.06 at 5:29 am

Oh, and it’s not currently in use on this thread, but since Teho mentioned adding to the CuteO glossary, what does “poit” mean?

39 ka9q's wife 06.25.06 at 5:29 am

Looks at ear flops….thud.

Dies…shambles around again…with head this time.

40 Aubrey 06.25.06 at 6:17 am

Well, Elfie, I always enjoy your half-baked reasonings – you are always a Beacon of hope; always adding up to more than a Hill of beans.

41 loopy 06.25.06 at 8:07 am

Is this the same kind of dog?

43 Drea 06.25.06 at 11:38 am

Awe… how adorable!

44 Claire 06.25.06 at 1:29 pm

Aww, he’s cuter than my three; two of which have that same cute dot!

45 Dickie Twinkles 06.25.06 at 1:52 pm

Oh MY GOD! So adorable!

He looks a LOT like my Cavalier when he was a puppy…are the breeds vaguely related? Oscar has the same colouring and crossed eyes XD

46 brownamazon 06.25.06 at 2:27 pm

Several people in my neighbourhood have Bostons and they seem quite well behaved. Friendly with people and other dogs. And I’ve only heard them bark in excitement as they race around in the park. the worst thing I’ve seen them do is that terrier habit of plonking their front paws up on your legs as a greeting. I think in most cases, badly behaved dogs, like bratty kids, are a reflection of their owners indulging them way too much (Sorry to get all Cesar Millan on you. Stopping the preachy-preachy now.)

47 Theo 06.25.06 at 2:37 pm

“Cesar Millan is a dog behaviourist and author, best known for his television series, Dog Whisperer, which airs on the National Geographic Channel.”

(I needed to look him up.)

Aubrey, how do you always manage to knock my Sox off?

49 Theo 06.25.06 at 4:44 pm

50 Lauri 06.25.06 at 7:55 pm

Oh my! Did you see the additional pics of the puppy….whilst wearing his collar, it looks like his nametag would make his little back legs dangle in the air cuz he is so tiny in comparison!

And, yes, Theo, please add “moist nosicle” to the glossary…and also, “good gaaalgh!” hee!

51 ElfOwl, B.S., M.A., I.W.T.F.M. 06.25.06 at 9:04 pm

Thanks Theo! I should have known to just Google it. Google knows all.

52 Kathleen 06.26.06 at 6:02 am

this pup looks like he is on the verge of doing something brand new…too cute.

53 adorababy 06.26.06 at 8:01 pm

54 molly 06.27.06 at 3:38 pm

Phelony Jones, hi; just skimmed your blog, which is nifty. But here’s something I immediately thought was interesting:

57 Kelsie 07.13.06 at 7:01 pm

Awwww… usually I’m not a fan of wall-eyed Bostons but this little guy is just too adorable!

Jackie: It’s a shame you’ve had bad experiences with Bostons – on the whole they are incredibly friendly, and their biggest behavior problem is getting them to contain themselves and not kiss you to death! I’ve got one who has agressive tendencies, but only because she had a bad experience as a puppy (mind you my family has had many bostons over the years and she the only one who’s not incredibly friendly) I’ve worked with her and now she warms up to most people and loves cuddles. <3

58 Nancy 07.22.06 at 12:26 pm

59 maurissa 08.12.06 at 8:23 pm
