3 HeidStar 12.12.06 at 9:49 pm

I love the little faceplant he/she does towards the end.

4 Sara 12.12.06 at 9:49 pm

Oh my. He lays down and then is all like, “BUH-WHAAAA?” Sorry, I think I nodded off there for a minute. I’m listening… I’m… listen…zzzz”

5 Sara 12.12.06 at 9:50 pm

It’s so funny that baby things try so hard to stay awake and don’t just lay down and give in.

6 ceejoe 12.12.06 at 9:51 pm

rotflmao… really…
::bonk!::

7 Nire 12.12.06 at 9:52 pm

That’s exactly what I look like right now.

Must! Stay! Awake!

8 Theo 12.12.06 at 9:54 pm

[ker-snork] I’M AWAKE!!

9 Aubrey 12.12.06 at 9:54 pm

“puppies will make you sleeeeeeep…..”

Puppeh is inclined to sleep, because all of its floof is making him warm, and restful; yet how can anyone relax with that spectalular sofa pattern going on behind him?

10 Alice 12.12.06 at 9:55 pm

So tietie!

11 Tisha_ 12.12.06 at 9:58 pm

Too flippin’ cute!

But, what kind of puppeh is that? It looks almost too floofy to be real.

12 Beachgal 12.12.06 at 9:59 pm

OH MAN! too funny. I feel your pain little puppy! I do that all the time!

13 Lillith 12.12.06 at 9:59 pm

I love at the end when he’s like “I’m up! I’m uh zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz”

So sweet! What kind of pups is this?

14 Julia2 12.12.06 at 9:59 pm

Me: There’s no way that can be a real creature. Oh, wait, look at it getting up again, ok maybe.. AWWWWW the eyes! Sooo cute!

15 anon 12.12.06 at 10:00 pm

HAHAHAHA reminds me of me during my college days…

16 nadia 12.12.06 at 10:02 pm

17 cheryl 12.12.06 at 10:08 pm

squeeee! unbelievably, impossibly cute! and obviously it’s simply exhausting being that cute. come here, you lil fluffball, you can sleep right here in my lap. i’ll let you know if you miss anything.

18 mary 12.12.06 at 10:09 pm

VERY cute!!!
its like when a kid wants to stay up and watch tv but keeps nodding off.

19 Redzilla 12.12.06 at 10:10 pm

Hee! Little bear-puppy has over romped and frolicked. Zzzzzonk.

20 CB 12.12.06 at 10:11 pm

YAY! New layout is working on Firefox now.

[whispers] I see hamster pants…

21 useta hada kitteh 12.12.06 at 10:12 pm

Ooh, puppers, I know how you feel! That’s exactly what I’ve been doing all afternoon at my ‘puter!

Come on, pupperzzz, give in to the honkshuzzzz. You know you want to…

22 sbreezy 12.12.06 at 10:16 pm

awwwww! thats how i feel right now!! stupid college finals week!

23 AmyH 12.12.06 at 10:17 pm

I showed this to my co-workers and we were all in tears. That faceplant is the best.

He’s so floofy! Like a Puffalump. [Squoooosh!]

24 Mia 12.12.06 at 10:23 pm

yay for new layouts!!! such a cute movie

25 Noelegy 12.12.06 at 10:24 pm

I don’t know what kind of puppeh that is, but I want one! Too cute.

26 cassie 12.12.06 at 10:27 pm

oh my goodness!
that face plant is premium!

27 Dalida 12.12.06 at 10:36 pm

No f*ing way.
Serieusly this has to be CGI or an alien dressed as a doggy, it’s TOO cute!!!

28 Chloe 12.12.06 at 10:42 pm

What kind of dog is that?

29 BuniHgr 12.12.06 at 10:44 pm

30 Denita TwoDragons 12.12.06 at 10:49 pm

31 BuniHgr 12.12.06 at 10:52 pm

34 stina 12.12.06 at 11:09 pm

Totally reminds me of Rusty the narcoleptic dachshund –

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zVCYdrw-1o

Heeheehee… Puppy sleeeeepy…

35 Nora 12.12.06 at 11:10 pm

I totally can’t watch the video…. it won’t load….oh the humanity!!
*&%$$#@!

36 vlohma 12.12.06 at 11:12 pm

Please, please install the non-slip carpet. Think of the puppies.

37 Kit 12.12.06 at 11:23 pm

Aww, he looks like a Pom Puppy! Da Pom! With fangs! There must be something super interesting going on to keep him doing the sleepy dance for so long. Who’s got the kibble?

38 Robin 12.12.06 at 11:25 pm

He doesn’t want to miss SANTA

39 CG 12.12.06 at 11:27 pm

oh, what have we done? CO is a WMD. I emailed this to my friend who promptly emailed back with cute vid of sleepy cat. I emailed back with scottie fold kitty lying on floor. He emailed back another cute cat. It’s WAR, I tell you. We’re pummelling each other with teh Qte!
::ducks at sight of fuzzy baby bunny::
AHHHH!

40 Theo 12.12.06 at 11:32 pm

This, CG, is why we will win.

41 Lizzy 12.12.06 at 11:33 pm

don’t we have a new category here?!?!?!? There’s gotta be something worth organizing about the multitude of videos of animals trying to stay awake… struggling against the cosmic field of drowsiness their own cuteness creates around them… we need these all in one place. Cue the music… “Things that make you go Awww”

42 Fish Eye no Miko 12.12.06 at 11:35 pm

What’s with sleepy animals that just makes them so Qte?
The faceplant! Oh, man! [giggles]

43 ali 12.12.06 at 11:37 pm

THAT PUP IS TOO FLUFFY! IT’S JUST NOT POSSIBLE!

44 BB/VA 12.12.06 at 11:37 pm

His name is perfect – that is about the spudgiest pup I’ve ever seen.

There can be only ONE Spudgy.

45 JuliaJellicoe 12.12.06 at 11:39 pm

I’ve had days like that at work …

46 CB 12.12.06 at 11:43 pm

as for breed, i’m thinking keshond or possibly bermese mountain.

anyone else out there want to have a go?

47 ShelleyTambo 12.12.06 at 11:47 pm

Looks like a keeshond? http://www.akc.org/breeds/keeshond/index.cfm

Whatever, he’s just too cute.

48 Francesca 12.12.06 at 11:47 pm

haha… what is he trying to stay awake for? what else does a pup have to do but take naps all day?! too funny.

49 tom 12.12.06 at 11:54 pm

that is awesome!

50 blueplasticstraw 12.13.06 at 12:09 am

Oh puppy, I know how you feelzzzzz

51 carriegood 12.13.06 at 12:12 am

i agree with lizzy – this is definitely a new CO category!

shleeeeepy…..

52 geekbride 12.13.06 at 12:15 am

That baby is so meemee! Time for beepies!

53 carriegood 12.13.06 at 12:18 am

ok, has anyone seen this one…?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VlUNf7rRN1I

54 officeboundprimate 12.13.06 at 12:27 am

This is me riiight now. It’s my second day back from a long holiday in a distant timezone.

I wish I could curl up next to the pup and we could surrender to the sleep monster together.

55 lunastar 12.13.06 at 12:33 am

O-M-G! So totally the cutest thing I’ve ever seen!! What a cuddly ball of sleepy fur!!

56 Brinke 12.13.06 at 12:39 am

He’s fading…fading…crashes, goes to Bahamas for a second..then “I’m back!!!” Hilarious.

57 Elizabeth 12.13.06 at 12:57 am

The coloring is slightly off, but I’d also vote keeshond, or keeshond mix. The fuzz is right, the face shape is right, and although he doesn’t have all of the markings he definitely has keesie in him. Fuzzbutts rule!

58 maria 12.13.06 at 1:25 am

I can’t take it. I am having THE worst day ever and this guy made me laugh, HARD, out loud. ‘lil munchin butt is too much.

59 Tarah 12.13.06 at 1:28 am

That’s how I feel in class.

60 Jared 12.13.06 at 1:31 am

LOL I’m AWAKE! I’m AWAKE!!! LOL

61 Miss Jen 12.13.06 at 1:34 am

I have also been having a royally craptastic day (finals, working, boys, parents, the list goes on…) but I literally lol’d at this and feel like maybe life is worth living.

62 Jorden 12.13.06 at 1:53 am

Pomeranian?
Whatever he is-he’s ADORABLE! You just have to scream, don’t you?

63 Sleepy Puppy 12.13.06 at 2:05 am

Oh, so tie tie. . . Legs turning to rubber. . . Melting into the carpet. . .Honk shu

64 musicchick2 12.13.06 at 2:11 am

This is SOOOOOO cute!! I feel that way around 4pm every day. Must….take…nap. *grabs Theo’s totally redonk custom tshirt for a pillow and slides slowly down to sleep*

65 musicchick2 12.13.06 at 2:17 am

Pssst…. if anyone wants to see Theo’s super-secret supply of tee shirts & other fun stuff…you can go here…
http://www.cafepress.com/cuteunder#apparel

Shhh! It’s a secret….

66 Theo 12.13.06 at 2:19 am

Heh, MC2. Only the COOL kids know about it. ;-)

67 Michael 12.13.06 at 2:23 am

The next time I have to explain what having narcolepsy is like, I’m just going to show them this video.

68 Celia 12.13.06 at 2:35 am

Oh I have always wanted to see a puppy or kitten at the exact moment the faceplant happens!

69 Michelle 12.13.06 at 2:46 am

so cute! Pretty sure Spudgy is an aging adult dog, not a puppy. And probably a spitz-type breed. Maybe a pom or shiba mix? I checked out her website Spudgy.com and she has the most insanely cute belleh ever! Not to mention she sings and blows bubbles out her nose!

70 velcrotrainer 12.13.06 at 3:09 am

i’ve never had kittens or puppies that did this!

i, on the other hand, do it all the freakin’ time. (thankfully not while driving)

71 CMR 12.13.06 at 3:11 am

I can’t deal with that.

72 bL 12.13.06 at 3:14 am

omg, I love him. He doesn’t want to miss anything in his new life :-D

73 Selianth 12.13.06 at 3:26 am

OK, that was so totally me today at work; filing, copying, and data entry. Zzzzz. Did I mention the time spent staring at the copy machine?

74 NebraskaErin 12.13.06 at 3:36 am

I’m not tie-tie! I’m not! I’m….not…tie…tzzzzzzz….I’m up! I’m up!

Little sweetie cuddlekins.

75 pookiepuff 12.13.06 at 3:57 am

He’s such a grizzly puffy pup! He must do this often for his owners to be ready with the camera. hehe!

76 Martha in Washington 12.13.06 at 3:58 am

Maybe it’s like a contest to see who can stay awake the longest. I think this poor lil guy lost. Love the face-plant–is that why his nose is slightly smooshed?

77 kodomo_ja_nai 12.13.06 at 4:06 am

omfg, this is so fucking adorable!!!!

78 freetomato 12.13.06 at 4:10 am

I’m with Michelle on the Pom-mix thing….spudgy.com howl-fest looks very pommy. Old/young….still majorly cute!

And hey! I emailed this link to Meg late last night and Athena got the cred. That’s cool (I sniff huffily)….at least paw-sliding puppage was shared with the adoring public. Get outta my head, Athena!

I just adore the stoic, brave expression that lasts about 2 seconds before Spudgy gives in to the heavy lids. That video could have gone on for one more minute for completion!

79 Enigma_Noir 12.13.06 at 4:24 am

I love that so much!!!!

I’m like that at work… I want to lay him down and bury my face in his furries and snuggle and kiss…. such a sweetie!!!!

80 Bianca 12.13.06 at 4:25 am

He’s like one of those push-button toys. You know the kind that has a little man on the top? You push the button, the man goes slack, you release the button, the man perks back up. It’s just like this!

81 Lone 12.13.06 at 4:48 am

No idea what kind of dog this is but itd sit just fine next to that little thing in Dark Crystal. Wraw wraw

82 Denita TwoDragons 12.13.06 at 5:19 am

Lone–you mean Fizzgig? HEE! You’re so right!

–TwoDragons (who is a flaming leaping honking pirouetting slobbering Dark Crystal fan!)

83 MissCreant 12.13.06 at 5:34 am

LOVE

Carriegood, that pug falling asleep just about killed me.

84 Kimby 12.13.06 at 5:45 am

OMG my poor husband hates me right now.
It’s 1:00am (almost), he has to be up in 4 hours for work and I CRACK UP at the face plant…. waking him up :(

The puppy is just… I…
*watches again*
I can’t stop laughing!!!!

85 brooke 12.13.06 at 5:48 am

I was giggling and “awwwing” hysterically the entire time. Quite possibly the cutest thing ever.

His effort mimics my effort to stay awake during an early morning lecture on Canadian politics

86 Jennifer 12.13.06 at 5:48 am

That was hilarious! I love this video…he is so adorable.

87 Subhangi 12.13.06 at 6:38 am

Awwwwwwwzzzzzzzzzz. Thish ish me when I’m slaaaaaypy…

*Snuggles upto puppy and goes to sleep*

88 Koneko 12.13.06 at 6:45 am

He’s a pure bred pompom, and he’s not even a pup! He’s TEN! But still damn cute, I must say!

89 Maureen 12.13.06 at 7:21 am

I followed one of the You Tube links above and found this gem… I almost died laughing at it!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iV6DQuEh4UQ&NR

90 Sherri 12.13.06 at 1:09 pm

It makes me think of a melodramatic death scene in a movie. Too funny!

91 ceejoe 12.13.06 at 1:13 pm

Maureen – I’ve seen that one before, but watching it again made me almost fall off my chair laughing..
thanks for posting it again!

92 layla 12.13.06 at 1:59 pm

It sure must be exhausting to be that cute!

93 AuntieMame 12.13.06 at 2:11 pm

There are a boatload of talking dogs, too:

94 Mommajess 12.13.06 at 2:21 pm

I have an elkhound (v. close to Keeshound) and I agree the color is off – I think this might be a chow mix. But does it really matter? It deserves it’s own breed – chowlicious.

95 Teresa 12.13.06 at 2:54 pm

LOL…tooo freaking cute! :)

96 carolina 12.13.06 at 3:01 pm

OH MY GAWD! Totally redonk. Excrutiatingly cute. Too, too much.

Thanks for making my morning.

97 carolina 12.13.06 at 3:03 pm

oh, what have we done? CO is a WMD. I emailed this to my friend who promptly emailed back with cute vid of sleepy cat. I emailed back with scottie fold kitty lying on floor. He emailed back another cute cat. It’s WAR, I tell you. We’re pummelling each other with teh Qte!

The only thing wrong with this is that you should be getting paid for it.

I’m jealous of Meg.

;)

98 A thinker 12.13.06 at 4:56 pm

Wow. “Baby animals trying to stay awake” seems to be developing into quite the theme, here.

99 marsheeeee 12.13.06 at 5:12 pm

oh man. This was me in that math class immediately after lunch when I was in college. Bless her heart. Thanks for making my morning. Adorable!

100 sung jee 12.13.06 at 5:29 pm

i wonder w/ these videos why the animal tries so hard to stay awake – esp. a puppy like this one. maybe someone is MAKING IT stay awake?

101 Lee 12.13.06 at 6:04 pm

what a cute puppy

102 MaggieBelle 12.13.06 at 6:35 pm

Plonk!

103 raymi 12.13.06 at 7:27 pm

104 Bon Bons in the Bath 12.13.06 at 7:58 pm

Oh my goodness, I couldn’t help but laugh out loud when I saw this video. So cute!!

105 Amnesia 12.13.06 at 8:51 pm

I can’t explain what this clip does to me. I guess you could call it a ‘cute’ seizure.
*gurgle*

106 Valerie 12.13.06 at 8:52 pm

What kind of puppy is this? I need one!!!

107 mickej 12.13.06 at 10:28 pm

One of the cutest ever!

108 Jessie 12.13.06 at 11:53 pm

AWAKIZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ I will not rest till I get….my…zzzzzzzz

113 Del 12.16.06 at 11:17 am

A Pomeranian, according to the YouTube video, he/she is actually 10 years old, not 10 months…hmm.

Still, probably the cutest “falling asleep” video ever.

114 Seth 12.18.06 at 9:02 pm

I loved this video. I was watch the 9 channel on the 9.yahoo.com webpage and thought how cute when I saw this! I have a dog and he sometimes does what the dog in the video was doing.

115 taotao 12.18.06 at 11:52 pm

toooooooooooo cute!!I wanna have one~~

116 veronica jones 12.19.06 at 5:32 am

Looks like a nurse on the night shift hahaha

117 gravyboat 12.19.06 at 10:29 am

Awwwwwwwww, so sneeeeeepy!!!

118 Chris 12.25.06 at 10:25 pm

119 Else 01.18.07 at 10:53 am

Does anyone know the code for this video (embed)??

120 chelsie 04.06.07 at 2:38 am

That reminds me of me after
14 hours of tavel!
