oh yay first!

Little doggy! Little doggy attacking a poor, innocent toy!

Quick! Get PETSA!

(People for the Ethical Treatment of Stuffed Animals)

3 R. Moore 01.25.07 at 2:30 am

Eep!

I just saw the raccoon on the basket. Such a cute stuffed animal, I hope it’s not one of the pup’s toys!

4 R. Moore 01.25.07 at 2:31 am

Okay, I will come onto this site and see, like, 8 comments the second it’s up. Today I’m way by the top. How is this happening? Where IS everyone?

5 lauowolf 01.25.07 at 2:32 am

He wants to be an elephant hunter when he grows up.
You know elephants, those small grey and pink fuzzy things.

6 GreenEyedHawk 01.25.07 at 2:33 am

Haha, so much like my min pin, Dog. She will dance around my chair for hours, kill-shaking her stuffed toys, tossing them up in the air, and whining at me as if to say, “Look! Look how much fun I’m having! Don’t you want to have fun too? Come on! COME ON!! Play! Plaayyyyy! Play playplayplayplayplayplayplay! *stuffing flying everywhere*

7 Theo 01.25.07 at 2:36 am

R Moore — I think I may have sneaked this past a lot of folks while they were eating dinner. The ones in Central and Western Time, anyway.

8 Theo 01.25.07 at 2:37 am

empty 6 pack of Magic Hat #9 in the background and a super-cute dog- my kind of people!

10 Indy's Mom 01.25.07 at 2:39 am

OMG, Elvy is a star!! A star!!! Peeps, we knew him when! *sighs blissfully*

11 Susan 01.25.07 at 2:41 am

Man, this site is like Prozac!

12 ceebs 01.25.07 at 2:44 am

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH
*splodes! I feel like I just won an Oscar! hahah!
There are a bunch of Elvis videos on YouTube, including him barking at that raccoon thing you see on the stool!
*thank God my house is kinda clean & newly vacuumed!

13 NebraskaErin 01.25.07 at 2:45 am

I’ll play with the puppy!! *tosses elephant*

*again*

*again*

*again*

*again*

What did I get myself into?!

14 Theo 01.25.07 at 2:46 am

!!!
d00d — Ceebs — YOU’RE CrankyPants??
Did I ever know that??
[headspins]

15 Indy's Mom 01.25.07 at 2:49 am

Oh, those soulful eyes! How can anyone resist this guy? He should be a silent movie star…

16 Lone 01.25.07 at 2:50 am

I was looking at the carpet more than the dog…

17 Theo 01.25.07 at 2:53 am

…no doubt! What IS that, Ceebs? Red velvet?

18 Petafoo.com 01.25.07 at 2:54 am

I doubt that elephant lasts much longer as a fetching toy. My pup loves to tear little stuffed animals like those to pieces.

So cute! =) My neighbor’s cat fetches, too. It sure makes playtime a lot easier. =)

20 ceebs 01.25.07 at 2:59 am

All right. The carpet is hideous. THIS I KNOW. I live with it every day and it goes right up my stairs thru the hall. It’s gonna get gone one of these days.
and Elvis has had that Elefont for about 6 years, it’s his favorite. He’s not gonna tear it up.
Theo,
YOU ARE TEHO????
OMG!!!!!!

21 Theo 01.25.07 at 3:00 am

[snort]

22 Brava97 01.25.07 at 3:01 am

What the heck is strung all across the floor, a phone cord? Somebody please move that out of the way before he trips and breaks his ears!

23 Theo 01.25.07 at 3:03 am

Brava — she was vacuuming. So, naturally, it’s pasta.

24 Indy's Mom 01.25.07 at 3:05 am

Shouldn’t there be a soaring John Williams score for this romantic unmasking? Ceebs = Crankypants! Teho swoons. Cranky laughs. Elvis breaks Teho’s fall with his pet effalump. Audience applauds Our Hero. Credits roll…

25 Julz 01.25.07 at 3:05 am

That is just _the_ definition of puppy dog eyes!

26 ceebs 01.25.07 at 3:07 am

here are more Elvideos
http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=stuft17
I hope that works.

yeah, the original idea was to get a video of him attacking the vac.
It is now safely stowed.

27 useta hada kitteh 01.25.07 at 3:07 am

I got so excited playing wif da puppers that I nearly typed my email address for my name!

Ceebs, he’s wonderful!

NebraskaErin, when you get tired, I’ll throw the Elefont for a while…

28 Theo 01.25.07 at 3:07 am

Indy’s Mom — ha, I can see the Academy Awards already. I mean, the carpet’s RIGHT THERE…

29 Elizabeth B. 01.25.07 at 3:13 am

“Is that your elephant?”

YES ITS MY ELEPHANT! YES YES YES YES! PLAY WITH MEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Ach, I want to chew his ears off.

30 Angela P. 01.25.07 at 3:14 am

Sooo… why does the elephant have mouse feet? :)

31 oaklandcat 01.25.07 at 3:21 am

Not to complain, but….i thought meggy promised more posts in 07! I’m deep in the throes of my winter blahs, and I need more POSTS!

32 So Cute 01.25.07 at 3:24 am

Oh, that pup is so cute. My heart is aching.

33 skippy 01.25.07 at 3:27 am

Angela — because it’s not an elephant; it’s an elefont. there are subtle differences, apparently. (like, in Lord of the Rings there’s those oliphaunts, which must also be just a leetle bit different.)

34 Theo 01.25.07 at 3:29 am

OaklandCat — the year is young. *Very* young.

35 lurkertype 01.25.07 at 3:34 am

ELVIS!!!!!

Yay Elvis!!!

Love, Elvy’s Minions.

36 ysabet 01.25.07 at 3:48 am

AAAaahhhhh Much better and WAY Qte…

Thank you Elvis and Ceebs and Teho and Theo.

37 Shannon 01.25.07 at 4:08 am

OY! how sweet. And that is some RED carpet!

(I thought there were posts. Seemed like it to me anyway…)

38 Faye 01.25.07 at 4:14 am

The snorts are just killing me. And the tail and the paw action. Never mind that he is actually obviously TALKING.

39 R. Moore 01.25.07 at 4:22 am

Ceebs:

I love that he rolls over when you tell him to lie down. My late pup would dance about no matter what command you gave. Eventually we called it her “Mamba”

40 Theo 01.25.07 at 4:24 am

R Moore — bear in mind, YouTube is notorious for skewing the audio out of sync from your uploaded video. So Elvy most likely *is* right on cue, there’s just slight technical difficulties.

41 E. Collison 01.25.07 at 4:25 am

yes, we, Elvy’s Minions, are *very* amused that he is here on C.O., but wondering why his mechanical raccoon vids are not here, too?

¡Baroo!

42 anner 01.25.07 at 4:27 am

holy nut! some mad scientist has combined a corgi and a chihuahua, to marvelous effect (affect?)!!!

43 Another Angela 01.25.07 at 4:56 am

Lol. Does he ever get the raccoon in the end?

44 Peg of Tilling 01.25.07 at 4:58 am

(Continuing Indy’s Mom’s story…)

Theo: Ceebs! I am your father!

Ceebs: Nooooooo!

45 ceebs 01.25.07 at 5:06 am

Actually, Theo, R. Moore is right. Well, you both are, because YouTube skews the timing on the sound a little but when I say “Sit” or “lie down” he rolls over because he knows he gets the treat after “roll over”.
LOL @ Indy’s mom! ;-)
and E. Co—I guess Teho needed a quick fix & this was there! I don’t know maybe the raccoon ones are disturbing, haha.

46 Aubrey 01.25.07 at 5:10 am

And in the front row of the theatre, there are three silhouettes: one man, and on either side of him a small robot…

“In the not too distant future…”

47 ka9q's wife 01.25.07 at 5:10 am

yayyyyy it’s Elvis posted by his proud minion. I love the vids of Elvis.

48 Margaret 01.25.07 at 5:42 am

I love the little chirping sound after he barks. Almost like a dolphin. My Min Pin makes the same noise when she’s calming down from seeing a cat or a pigeon. Dogs are so freakin awesome.

49 Suda Nim 01.25.07 at 7:06 am

My dog would do the same thing — segue straight from sit into the rolling over, in order to hasten Treat Time.

I became a Mean Mom and would not surrender treats when she did this. So when she was already on her back and I’d repeat “Sit!” there were serious furwrinkles. She gradually got it.

50 Laura 01.25.07 at 7:14 am

I can’t see the puppeh! HELP!

51 Maria 01.25.07 at 7:25 am

Me neither D-:

52 Jennifer 01.25.07 at 11:18 am

I love the look from the eyes at the end! Precious.

53 little miao 01.25.07 at 12:06 pm

Elvy! Elvy!! *swoons*

~another Elvy Minion

54 pugmamatimestwo 01.25.07 at 1:23 pm

too, too cute!! our little girl pug will do the same thing – literally stand over her toy staring for HOURS if she has to. it’s so funny when animals obsess… :P

55 Libby 01.25.07 at 2:11 pm

Eee, the little squeeks at the beginning!

56 Theo 01.25.07 at 2:39 pm

Those that can’t see the video — it’s YouTube, so you need to have the Flash plugin installed in your browser. It’s free…
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe
…also, you have to be on a network where Flash isn’t blocked (like at some workplaces).

57 michellemybelle 01.25.07 at 2:50 pm

Yay! You and Elvis have hit the big time!

It’s almost better than Powerball…wait, no. I take that back.

Congratulations!

58 TFMS 01.25.07 at 3:09 pm

Wee Elvis is all:

“Don’t touch my Elephant (touch it!)”
“Don’t touch my Elephant (touch it!)”

“You touched my Elephant, it’s on now Momma!”

Yay for Elvis, I lof him.

59 fifi 01.25.07 at 3:35 pm

it’s the demoniacal insistence in the eyes…like ‘by sheer force of will I shall stare you into obeying me!’ or maybe, ‘you know what I want, so why the f–aren’t you doing it?!?!’

60 rpennefe 01.25.07 at 4:06 pm

Um Can I become an Elvy minion? So very prosh!

61 ceebs 01.25.07 at 5:09 pm

rpennefe—you don’t have to ask, you just ARE! (or you aren’t!) :)

TFMS–you got it–he’ll pick it up, drop it, pick it up, drop it, stand there, wait, whine….then as soon as my hand goes for it, he does too. I guess he feels like he has to fight for it, because he is, after all, a rottweiler in a chihuahua suit. soooo tuff.
The best though is when I am watching tv, or otherwise occupied, and I don’t notice him standing there with his toy, ready to play. So he gets a bit adamant, growls/whines a bit, and stands in front of the toy, and the next step is for him to kick his hind leg and launch the elefont across the room behind him. If only I could get that on camera!

62 Sara 01.25.07 at 5:14 pm

What kind of dog is Elvis?

63 Theo 01.25.07 at 5:15 pm

Sara — see the comment just above yours! Rottie in a wahwah suit.

64 Kelsey 01.25.07 at 5:50 pm

I want one. :D S/he’s so cute!

65 tiny_munkie 01.25.07 at 6:09 pm

So cute, so lively!! My Boston Gomez talks all of the time… even in his sleep and if I don’t pay attention to him when he wants to play, he will either just drop the toy in my lap or fling it across the room himself so he can fetch it. They truly are better than Prozac!!!

66 pyrit 01.25.07 at 6:24 pm

(throw the ball) ceebs – (Hang on. Throw the ball.) My Jack Russell (wait a sec. throw the ball.) is the same. (Excuse me. t.t.b.) Fetch obsessed. (t.t.b.) Elvis is so good not to (I’m sorry. t.t.b.) chew up his toys. (t.t.b.d.t.s.) And Elvis looks so cuddly. White tip tails are my fave. (d.t.s. = down the stairs.)

67 lauowolf 01.25.07 at 6:25 pm

ceebs-
I love it when they get so impatient with human denseness that they start playing with the toy alone to demonstrate.

See! See!
This is how I’d chase it if you’d tossed it!
It’s soo fun!
Look here!
See, fun!

(My kitty loves me, but thinks I’m a bit slow.)

68 Subhangi 01.25.07 at 6:57 pm

OMG it’s CEEBS/ CRANKYPANTS AND ELVIS!!! WHOOHOO!!! Way to go, sistah!!!

69 Del 01.25.07 at 7:47 pm

Damn. I used to watch that corgi video over and over and oooover again, it almost made my heart *weep*. I think this one almost tops that video.

I’ve always loved the way dogs show their enthusiasm, not just the tail, but with their entire backside :)

70 ceebs 01.25.07 at 8:49 pm

Thanks Cuteoverload! I just saw on YouTube where my stuff is #52 most watched today! *bows* haha
Holy crikey! The highest # of views I’d had before yesterday was like, 72, LOL now just this one video has over 19,000 views. as Mariser said, “’tis the Power of Teh Qte” !!!
weird wild stuff!
thanks for all the nice comments & for loving Elvy. he’s quite a little character, always has been, I suspect he always will be.

71 TastesLikeChicken 01.25.07 at 8:52 pm

Love the now! bark – as in play now!, food now!, out now!
Glad to hear/see that others are also slaves to a small tyrant in a fur suit.

72 crixpy 01.26.07 at 2:29 am

holy toledo it’s ELVY! and CRANKY! :-D

and a small world. a small internet world. well, I guess I did hear about this site from Elvis, and that lady who feeds him.

73 Theo 01.26.07 at 2:42 am

How about that, Ceebs? Worlds ARE colliding!

74 Suda Nim 01.26.07 at 3:12 am

My last three dogs, all rescues, have from neglect or outright abuse been totally indifferent to toys, and to play in general.

I’d *love* to once again have a dog staring at me, toy in mouth, ready to drive me insane.

75 ceebs 01.26.07 at 3:43 am

aw, that is so sad, Suda…:-(
Hi Crixpy!
Teho/Theo, she’s in a few of my worlds now, just not the real one, hahah!!! (but they are all vox related)

76 AuntieMame 01.26.07 at 4:55 am

There is something wrong with the video because I could see it just fine last night here at home, and tonight there isn’t even anything to click on.

I know I don’t have the latest version of Flash, but that’s because I uninstalled it a few weeks ago. It was crapping up my browser.

77 violetgreen 01.26.07 at 5:18 am

How ’bout that one subtle sideways head toss/glance: “See, THIS, right here, THROW it, for Crow Pete!”

78 Sabba 01.26.07 at 5:28 am

*TEWTALLY late to the party*

ELVY IS ON CO! (uh, newsflash.)

Hooray, Ms. Pants!

79 Elaine 01.26.07 at 4:09 pm

Wait a minute… I had first post! I did! That is my comment up there that says “oh yay first” and now it says that comment was made by DePlane… how did that happen?!?!

80 Theo 01.26.07 at 5:06 pm

My gosh. I have no #&@%ing idea how that might have happened.

82 Maria 01.27.07 at 12:33 am

Hi Theo!

I’m at youtube all the time so that wasn’t the problem. This happens from time to time, can’t explain it. Same computer too, I work from home and use only one.

Anyway, now it works and I
can see the wonderful little rascal :-) !

83 georgia wright 01.27.07 at 1:16 am

86 ceebs 01.29.07 at 11:32 pm

87 Lauri 01.31.07 at 11:46 pm

HOORAY!!!

Such a great video, ceebs!!!!
