    Wow! Check those pointy ears of joy!

  2. Lauri says:

    WHHHEEEEEEE!
    Flying legless dogs!
    It just goes to disprove the theory that where you find a dog with no legs is right where you left him!

    Go, little weenies, Go!!!

  3. Jasper says:

    The brown one appears to be far more aerodynamic. Maybe that’s why he’s winning the race.

    Which one is Anakin driving?

  7. NebraskaErin says:

    This pictures is so hilariously cute that it has rendered me incapable of cognizant thought. I have nothing clever to say. Or maybe it’s because I’m laughing so hard that I got puddin’s all over my monitor. BWAHAHAHAHAHA!

  8. Megan says:

    Oh no…seriously, this must be the best thing I have ever seen. Im too overwhelmed to say more.

  9. chet's momma says:

    wonder where they are flying to?

  10. gryt says:

    I also did the “Nyerrrrrrrrrrrr-owwwnnn [hovercrafts just breezed past]” sound out loud… :D And I haven’t even had my coffee yet.

  11. Lauri says:

    *Hands NebErin a Puddin’ Squee-Gee, so she can see the flyin’ weeners agin.*

    :D

    They have launched themselves into the Cute universe — and we are all the better for it.

    I love the ears on both of ‘em, and the smile on the one in back! You just KNOW they’re thinking “This is waaaaaaay better than hanging my head out the car window!”

  14. Mary says:

    Weenies? They look like Min Pins to me. I’d know that bouncing, manic look anywhere. :p

  15. Theo says:

    ULTRA-LOW-ORBIT DOXIES!!
    KA-ZOWWW!!!

    I wish I could do italics in these comments…

  16. Evan says:

    Anybody else suspicious that the dog in front doesn’t have a shadow corresponding to the rear dog’s shadow?

  17. Theo says:

    Evan — I think 2 things:
    1) Brown Hoverdog looks like he’s up a bit higher, and
    2) the photo is cropped close at the lower edge

    So I think one shadow’s been cropped out.

  18. indigoreiki says:

    HaHAHa…This just made my day!!!

  19. Sweet Lady says:

    It’s a bird!

    It’s a plane!

    No, it’s Super Weiner!

    heheheheheheheheheeee!!!

    velocity x height = time cooped up in the car to get there x immediate proximity of squirrels off-screen

    “MANNED flights?? To heck with these ‘manned’ flights”…

  24. Redzilla says:

    Too cute! Wh-what-how? Ow! ow!

    Thanks, CO. I’m really getting my money’s worth out of that Home Aneurism Repair Kit.

  25. anon says:

    HAHAHAHA! BEST THING I’VE EVER SEEN! Seriously. I’m not even kidding.

  26. “Which one is Anakin driving?”

    Holy frawkin’ mackerel, Peg, I just about sprained my sinuses there!

    The answer? The one at the head of the race, of course… ;-)

  27. Julia2 says:

    The brown one def. looks more aerodynamic. But I love the shadow under the back one, and the tail that looks like a rudder.. Great photo :-D

  28. On the heels of THAt geek moment, my second thought was…it’s Dogleks!

    *mechanical voice* EX-TER-MIN-ATE THE DOG-TOR!

  29. Linda says:

    OMG!!!!! That is so awesome. I have a weenie dog and he sprongs just like that =D! Just never taken a pic of the acshun.

    Made my day…

    I love my weenie dog, and I have to give him up to my dad but that’s okay… they’ll keep each other company

    I’ll still miss him :~(

    Thing 1: “Min-Pin, win!”
    Thing 2: “Wheeeeee-ner Dawg!

    It’s the U.S. Reverse Luge Team practicing on the dirt slopes of DogPatch.

  32. Renee says:

    Holy Crap!!! I’m suffering fits of laughter over here! That is the darn tootinest funny thing!

  33. sarah says:

    wait…it’s really creepy if u imagine they’re coming to attack u!! lol, but creepy in a cute way.

  34. I see that Superman finally got himself some pets!

  35. Robbie says:

    That’s one of the funniest photos I’ve ever seen!

  36. Paranoid says:

    Is it just me, or does the brown one look like a vampire-dog? Perhaps they can fly because they are undead. *shifty eyes*

  37. Theo says:

    Paranoid — [ahem] …daylight.

  38. ceebs says:

    no sheeeet! this is a crazy funny pic!!! :)

    (airplane engines whirring)

    Take cover!

    Dog flight!

    DOG FLIGHT!

  42. TeeJJ says:

    OMG!!! My MinPin does the same thing! That smile…ears of joy (LOL)! He also does a funny butt tuck run I will have to try and capture for CO. LOVE the sound effects!

  43. skippy says:

    This MAKES my DAY! Redonk hoverdogs. I wish my cats could do that.

  44. Theo says:
  45. Vicky says:

    Awwe! Minpins!!! I miss my lil min pin buddy. :(

  46. Laurie C says:

    Okay, I give. What’s a “minpin”?

  47. Theo says:
  48. Aeesha says:

    Yeah, definitely min pins. I have one and he looks like that all day. Wish I could bottle some of his energy and drink it!

  49. Michelle says:

    minpin is Miniature Pinscher. That’s what they look like to me, too. But I’ve never seen a minpin with uncropped ears or tails – so cute! Dachshunds usually have a more substantial muzzle, but I have been known to be wrong.

  50. Kate says:

    Here are some small dogs going “Nyeeeowwwmmmm!!”
    Because they are keen to get
    heeeowwwmmmm,
    Where they’ll get lots of treats,
    And warm rugs for their feets,
    And maybe the odd silly peeeowwwmmmm…

  51. GreenEyedHawk says:

    I have a min pin whose tail is docked but whose ears are uncropped. She looks like Yoda, her ears are so big, it’s awesome. She also is able to fly like this. Maybe that’s why she can fly; her giant ears provide lift. Or perhaps, like Yoda, she is strong with The Force.

  52. A thinker says:

    heh, Teho.

    Now all it needs is one of Michelle’s foal-esque hovering animations…

  53. carolina says:

    It’s a tuff call, but this ‘un made me day.

  54. zenith says:

    Someone should animate these guys hovering up and down and put in Johnny-Quest like sound effects. Totally prosh.

  55. Aubrey says:

    Sopwith Pups!

  56. Diane N says:

    KATE! Your peeeowwwmmmm caused actual tears of mirth, right here in the workplace, which caused me to have to mumble “*&%$@#@ allergies” when a coworker ambled by. Good thing I wasn’t reading it out loud!

  57. AlbertaGirl says:

    Kate – you rock! (bows)

  58. Chastity Kennedy says:

    CUTE !!!
    I never knew they could fly!!!
    :+)

  59. Martha in Washington says:

    I snorted when I saw this one! Nobody else is home to hear me though. Which begs the question–If you snort in an empty house, does it make a sound?

  60. Aubrey says:

    Martha,

    If you snorg a tempting mouse will it make a sound?

    If you exempt a soused Borg will it make a sound?

    If you get trounced defending a fort will it make a sound?

    Crikey. I need some lunch.

  61. Lauri says:

    Heeheeheeing at Kate, and Martha and Aubrey!

    Whilst in Ireland we had a running tale going about how Really Old Abbey, who we often saw by the sides of roads was in love with Old Norman Fort, also seen by the sides of many roads….well, it went on and on and you really HAD to be there.

    And, I already HAD lunch. :)

    ….maybe a cupo’tea.

  63. Lauri says:

    May I say to the minpin/weener dog crowds…..

    Black one, Manchester Terrier?

  64. Rumi says:

    [OT]The peeps here may not have done it to their dogs themselves, they may have gotten them from shelters or other people that way, so no direct attack, BUT: WHY do people cut off dogs ears and tails??? I mean, WTF, people??!?!?!!

    I think any person who does that to an animal should have the exact same thing done to her/him. Ini the case of the ears, anyway. For the tail, well — grab the closest thing![/OT]

  65. Lauri says:

    You know, Rumi, cropping and docking are getting very unpopular everywhere and that is a VERY good thing! Yay!

    What a barbaric thing to do!

  66. GreenEyedHawk says:

    Even as a min pin breeder, I’m against docking and cropping. THere used to be a reason for it, but now the dogs are just pets and companions, there’s no reason for it at all.

  67. Lauri says:

    Hey, GreenEyedHawk,
    do you have a website for your minpins?

  68. Lone says:

    Is it possible that they are a mini-pin and dachund mix? They strike me as more dachund than not, the wide thick chest/stomach and just the face says weiner to me. Hrmm dont know, but cute :)

    Its red by a Nyerrrrrrrrrrrr-owwwnnn!

  69. Genny says:

    MIN-PINS!!! I’ve got a doggie that’s half Min-Pin, half Yorkie and when she runs her shaggy little legs do a 180 just like these pups. Awww. I miss my doggie (at college= no doggies)

  70. Lucky's Buddy says:

    MIN PINS ROCK

  71. Rumi says:

    Lauri and GreenEyedHawk,

    Glad to hear it! :-)

  72. Kim says:

    SPROING! SPROING!
    Outstanding!

  73. Subhangi says:

    Anyone else thinking ZEPPELINS?

    Anyhoo, I can actually *hear* the boings.

  74. Aubrey says:

    CO is always a learning experience. Before I was told what a ‘minpin’ was I thought it had to do with a rather small bowling alley. But that would have been silly.

  75. Margaret says:

    Awww! This picture perfectly captures the MinPin joie de vivre I have seen in my own little poopies. They always cheer me up when I’m having a bad day.

    XOX

  76. Lauri says:

    Heeeeee….yay for poopies making our bad days better!

    Mine always do! Do.

    Aub…CO is always about learning…and usually, YOU are one of the main…um…learners…no, teachers! :)

    Keep up the good work!

  77. Faye says:

    Flying squirrels better look out now.

  78. Am I the only one hearing that sci-fi “oooo-OOH-oooOOooOOooOH!” sound? …am I the only one who knows what I mean?

  79. Meeker says:

    Where is that Levitay-shons! thing from? I only know it from Brooker’s Harry Potter video.

  80. sarah says:

    omg, i actually laugh harder every time i look at it!! and my roommate’s trying to sleep…whoops :)

  81. emokid says:

    whaha.. so funny. zhang ziyi being chase by chow yun fat..

  82. Martha in Washington says:

    Aubrey, you made me snort again. And yes, I think the mouse would probably make a very big SQUEAK!
    Speaking of docking tails, our black lab mix had her tail docked before we got her. That was one of the things that I fell in love with when I first saw her. She was a rescue dog, only about six months old. She was so adorable with these big brown eyes and this little bitty tail knob. (My husband loves to tease her about it. Meanie!) I hate to see it done to dogs and nobody at the rescue society knew why it had been done.

  83. volatile says:

    this looks photoshopped… does anyone else think that?

  84. LB says:

    As if the picture isn’t redonk enough, “Nyerrrrrrrrrrrr-owwwnnn” is just pure genius.

    (I just had a weener dog owner tell me hers goes into hover craft mode too…must be a breed thing…hmmm)

  85. Theo says:
  86. LB says:

    Teho – tanks for the link about min pins.
    I saw this little dogglette taking walkies last week and its gait reminded me of a Clydesdale, have to wonder if it wasn’t a widdle min pin.

  87. Shrader says:

    Hoover-pups! I just can’t stand it!

  88. Kris says:

    WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

  89. SL says:

    This is my new favorite picture of all time.
