This is the just so sad. Poor little guy. All he needs is a neck cone to complete the misery.

2 juliette 02.07.07 at 7:46 pm

that dog looks how i feel.

3 sidney 02.07.07 at 7:49 pm

Oh please tell me someone is going to pick him up and love him. sob sob
The song fits him well.

4 Dara 02.07.07 at 7:51 pm

Where’s the mason jar of moooonshiiine!?

5 katerpie 02.07.07 at 7:53 pm

he just needs some petting… and some brushing. aw, lo’ hep me!

6 Meatcup 02.07.07 at 7:55 pm

I don’t believe I ever did see a dog pout like that before…

sad puppy eyes, yes

full on pout with leeps? never ever

7 Josée 02.07.07 at 7:55 pm

Aaaaw…poor little guy..

8 paula 02.07.07 at 8:02 pm

Oh my poor baby! He needs some lovin’ – STAT!

9 Pheas 02.07.07 at 8:03 pm

Awww, he’s got the broken-leg-someone-put-my-moonshine-outta-reach blues. Poor Oskare.

Is he a Brussels Griffon?

10 paula 02.07.07 at 8:03 pm

Nobody knows the trouble I seen…..Nobody knows my sorrow…..

11 Laurie 02.07.07 at 8:04 pm

That is the saddest l’il pup ever!! I just want to hug and pet him/her ’til it’s all better!

12 the13thrabbit 02.07.07 at 8:04 pm

Awww… *SCHNUGGLE*

He needs to have a chat with Thalia, the Colts pug from further down. They could commiserate about leg injuries over tea and biscuits. ^_^

13 marmar 02.07.07 at 8:07 pm

ditto ditto ditto

now, the other thing that caught my eye was the shadow of the pup on the side of that cabinet(?). at first i thought it was a reflection like in a mirror because there seem to be dark knots in the wood that correspond with an ear and a nose. No?

14 musicchick2 02.07.07 at 8:10 pm

Meg…. I totally heard your caption in my head with the tune to that commercial…”I can bring home the bacon, fry it up in a pan…..’cause I’m a WOMAN! Enjoli” LOL!

15 jaypo 02.07.07 at 8:13 pm

He so sad! Poor li’l fella.

16 musicchick2 02.07.07 at 8:13 pm

Marmar – OMG! Yew are tewtally right! *insert twilight zone music here* Do-do-do-do Do-do-do-do

17 hronnsa 02.07.07 at 8:19 pm

awww. hang in there little dude. you’ll be “in the game” soon enough. what a sad face!

18 Fable 02.07.07 at 8:20 pm

Dont cry bebe…i am sure that soon you will find a fine island flower to chew on instead of my shoes;)

19 PuppyMomma 02.07.07 at 8:21 pm

Poor scruffle-bums. He’s got a cast and one of my guys has stitches on his belly. Its a blue day for puppehs.

20 Leilani 02.07.07 at 8:24 pm

Poor little puppers. All he needs is a teeny tiny tear trickling down his cheek.

21 Candace 02.07.07 at 8:29 pm

I love it! The blues song caption, not the fact the puppeh is injured! This is sad and cute. Poor little scruffy doggie! Too bad he doesn’t have some moonshine.

22 Roberta 02.07.07 at 8:29 pm

Oh That Sad Sad Puppy Face…..I Nee eed A Tree ee aat To Make Me feel Be eh tter

23 jenn 02.07.07 at 8:31 pm

Okay, so I just came from pajiba.com and read their 10 most tear jerking moments on film or tv…which proceeded to make me BAWL. And I come here for a pick me up. Only now I’m crying harder for wee leetle oscar. Sniffle.

24 Mel 02.07.07 at 8:31 pm

Oh my Loh! Oscar has done hurt my heart.

25 Candace 02.07.07 at 8:31 pm

Marmar,
I totally see it too! Wow, this picture just got downright artsy! Even the grai n in the wood looks like it could be the fur in a mirror reflection. Very well composed shot.

26 holli 02.07.07 at 8:40 pm

I heart the song!!!

He needs a kiss – send him over our way!!

27 brad 02.07.07 at 8:40 pm

I think he’s an Affenpinscher. He sure is cute.

28 chacha 02.07.07 at 8:41 pm

juliette, me too. perfect expression of a blue Wednesday. oh woe!

29 Helene 02.07.07 at 8:45 pm

Awwwwwwww… *snif*

30 Tarah 02.07.07 at 8:45 pm

*KISS**KISS**KISS**KISS**KISS*

Don’t be sad Oscar…You are too cute to be sad.

31 Rosie 02.07.07 at 8:48 pm

I’ve lost all mah moneh…
my girl and mah car.
and now I got nuthin’ but…
a paw cast and mason jar

A jar of mooooooooooooonshine [howls]
Oh just a jar of moooooooonshine

I was down at the pub
but they throoo me ouuuuut
I broke my paw and got kicked about

my girl and mah car.
and now I got nuthin’ but…
a paw cast and mason jar

A jar of mooooooooooooonshine
Oh just a jar of mooooooooooonshine

Now nobody loves or pats me
as i sit in the dark
nobody hears me
no matter how much i bark

A jar of mooooooooooooonshine
Oh just a jar of mooooooooooonshine

32 Rosie 02.07.07 at 8:49 pm

oops, forget that second part about the girl and car, i accidentally copied it wrong

33 hester13 02.07.07 at 8:50 pm

Okay, I totally see the blues reference, BUT-

did anybody else look at his hairdo, pout & blue spandex bandage and think: 80’s glam metal?? I like to think he’s not hurt, he’s just dolled himself up for the album cover shoot. The chixx are gonna go crazee for him!!

What? nobody else? Oh well.

(wanders off singing “sweet child o’ mine”)

34 ebee 02.07.07 at 8:51 pm

Cute But Sad. Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
ooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!
*snif*

35 pookiepuff 02.07.07 at 9:03 pm

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!! Someone hold the poor little pup and snorgle him! He needs a good snorgling!

36 michellemybelle 02.07.07 at 9:09 pm

I want to hug him until he’s better – what a wonderful leetle doggie.

37 Miss Beth 02.07.07 at 9:11 pm

That’s simultaneously tragic AND precious.

38 pyrit 02.07.07 at 9:16 pm

“I feeuhl so bayud I got a wuhrried mind, Ahm so lonesum awl teh time, since ah left mah bebeh behind, o-o-on Balue Bayoo-oo-oo,” boo-hoo-hoo. . .

39 pyrit 02.07.07 at 9:19 pm

As mothers used to say, “You could sit on that bottom lip.”

40 Pheas 02.07.07 at 9:19 pm

pyrit — Blue Baroo?

41 musicchick2 02.07.07 at 9:25 pm

Hester – Yes! Like in Flashdance?? LOL!

Pyrit – my Mom used to say that too, only it was “dance” on that lip. Then she’d take her fingers and try to “dance” on my bottom lip until I cracked up.

Blue Baroo reference, Pyrit & Pheas. AWESOME! I even gots that Linda Ronstadt album (on cassette!) LOL!

42 M Gomez 02.07.07 at 9:26 pm

Awwwwww!

43 pyrit 02.07.07 at 9:27 pm

I thought of baroo but it didn’t fit the mood. Cute though.

44 Aubrey 02.07.07 at 9:30 pm

Now since my owner left me
I’ve found a new place to dwell:
for the cost of the bone you eat
at Pawbreak Hotel.
I’m so lonely, I’m so lonely,
I’m so lonely that I could die.

And though CO’s always crowded
Meg can still find some room
for broken leg-ged puppehs
to cry there in the gloom
and be so lonely, oh so lonely,
oh so lonely they could die.

Bright colors are not showing,
bananaphones are black.
They all add to a lonely scene
and that sure’s a fact
and it’s so lonely, oh it’s so lonely,
it’s so lonely I could die.

So if your owner leaves
and a tail your howls can sell
just walk on with your three good feet to Pawbreak Hotel
where you’ll be lonely and Oscar’s lonely,
we’ll be so lonely that we could die.

45 lrita 02.07.07 at 9:31 pm

goodness grasheous, i can here that blues shuffle and that sad doggie howwwwl sure enough. bless that doggie’s fluffy muzzlepuff and pass the mason jar!

46 Theo 02.07.07 at 9:32 pm

Aubrey — you ain’t never caught a rabbit…

47 Aubrey 02.07.07 at 9:40 pm

T., you thought you were high class…

wait…BUNNEH???…where???

48 Theo 02.07.07 at 9:43 pm
49 Anastasia_Beaverhousen 02.07.07 at 9:44 pm

awwwwww!!! he is totally working that pout, poor oscar! he looks like a brussels griffon…I have one that makes the same face ALL the time…to get out of trouble, to get some extra love…to get a treat…you get the point..

50 you guys r silly 02.07.07 at 9:47 pm

I’m just a broken puppeh
a sittin’ on a parquet floor
I’m wedged in here next to the cupboard
and the backyard door
I’ve got the
sad puppeh blues, mah brothah…
I’ve got the sad puppeh blues…
ain’t no one to kiss my muzzlepuff
couldn’t it please be one of youse? . . .

51 Aubrey 02.07.07 at 9:49 pm

Bunneh…with the blues? Don’t get it. You’ll have to provde me with some Clues to these Blues.

52 BlueFairy 02.07.07 at 9:56 pm

Oscar looks just like my Frankie. Please somebody say what breed he is. I picked up Frank from the side of the road. And yes, Frank can look as sad as that without a cast. But he can look really happy too.

53 Redzilla 02.07.07 at 9:59 pm

This just recalls to me the best moment of my first BB King concert, when he sings, “Nobody loves me, ‘cept my mother. And she might be jivin’ too.”

Poor pupper, I’m not jivin’.

Teho & Aubrey–you guys are tearing it up today. [applause]

54 Emmy 02.07.07 at 10:04 pm

aw! That is the cutest sad-puppy face ever. Great photo too!

55 pyrit 02.07.07 at 10:07 pm

And ygrs too! waaahhh.

56 pyrit 02.07.07 at 10:14 pm

“Assemble round, O, dear children of CO, Oscar’s is a sad tale of woe, …”

57 Roberta 02.07.07 at 10:21 pm

I Always Heard: “A Birdies Gonna come Sit (Yeah; Sit Is WhatI Heard)On That Lip”

58 Theo 02.07.07 at 10:37 pm

SOMEbody’s feet’s steppin’ mighty close to my blue suede shoes.
Won’t say whose.

59 Roberta 02.07.07 at 10:44 pm

OK; Gonna Try My Luck Here

Sittin Here In Limbo o
Like A Dog Without A Bo one
Sittin Here In Limbo o
Knowing That I’ve Got To “Go ooo”
Well; They’s Been Some resistence
But I Know That My Faith Will Lead Me On

Sittin Here In Limbo o
Waiting For The Cast To Mol old
Sitting Here In Limbo While My Food Is Gettin Co oold
Well; Theys Been Some Resistence
But I Know That Faith Will Lead Me On

I Don’t Know Where Life Will Lead Me
But I Know Where I’ve Been
I Don’t Know What Life Will Show Me
But I Know What I’ve Seen
Had Ny Share Love And Friendships
But What’s In The Past Is Gone
This Little Dog Is Movin On

60 Roberta 02.07.07 at 10:57 pm

Forgot To Mention John Sabastian And His Album Tarzana Kid

61 Anna 02.07.07 at 10:59 pm

Baroo..indeed. sad sad sad. I just heard a crack – it was my heart breaking:(

62 Deb 02.07.07 at 11:03 pm

This photo is definately a Hallmark moment.

Poor little guy! :-(

63 gret 02.07.07 at 11:26 pm

Can I have the Tabs for that song?

64 hester13 02.07.07 at 11:33 pm

pyrit, mc2, roberta-
My lil sis was a big proponent of that pout, and my dad used to call it “the pig tripper.” Oooh man, did that always bust me up.
How great to hear all the variations! Never heard the bird perch or dance floor before!

65 Noel 02.08.07 at 12:30 am

I wish I could put that poor little puppeh on my lap, and we could have a big, long cry together right now. :-(

I’m feeling just like him.

66 ivy 02.08.07 at 12:49 am

Paws up and hugs all around to all the CO-ers (human and not so human) feeling poorly right now.

67 kamihi 02.08.07 at 1:03 am

Bless thats one sad looking doggo.

68 Yitzysmommie 02.08.07 at 1:12 am

I love kittehs WAY more than puppehs, but poor sad Oscar makes me want to snorgle & cuddle & pet him. Poor baby! Hope he’s bouncing around again.

69 Moosie 02.08.07 at 1:45 am

Awesome photography – I swear the grain of the wood, which at first glace looked like the pattern of the fur, made the shadow look like a reflection!

70 Karen in Toronto 02.08.07 at 2:18 am

Play the song backwards:

“Got my girl back,
Got my truck back,
Got my pwner back,
My leg’s out ‘a the caaaaast…”

71 pyrit 02.08.07 at 2:27 am

“I’m bluer than blue,
Sadder than sad . .”

(Beary Wormilow ;-) )

72 Theo 02.08.07 at 2:32 am

Karen in Someplace Further North — LOL!
Whoa-oh, I got them back-masked oranges…

73 TFMS 02.08.07 at 3:13 am

Well I ain’t seen my foot on nigh on a week.
Wanna get gassed so I can’t even speak.
Come on down here and listen to me.
One treat ain’t enough man, ya better make it three.

One Milkbone
One Snausage &
One Pig Ear

(Apolgies to George and the Destroyers)

74 Kate 02.08.07 at 3:37 am

I love the shadow on the wood behind him. The knots in the wood sorta look like an ear and a nose.

75 pyrit 02.08.07 at 4:16 am

“The old grey ‘dog’, ‘Oscar’, stood by himself in a thistly corner of the Forest, his front feet well apart, his head on one side, and thought about things. Sometimes he thought sadly to himself, “Why?” and sometimes he thought, “Wherefore?” and sometimes he thought, “Inasmuch as which?” and sometimes he didn’t quite know what he was thinking about.”
(from, Eeyore’s Thistly Hideaway)

76 Roberta 02.08.07 at 4:19 am

Hester…..The Pig Tripper If Funny.

77 Roberta 02.08.07 at 4:22 am

TFMS…..I Was Thinking I Needed To Offer Appologies For Mine. When I Sing It It My Head, It’s In MY VOICE…..L O L

78 Margaret 02.08.07 at 6:12 am

His face totally says “My baby done left me” :(

Poor little dude.

79 Trudy 02.08.07 at 6:30 am

Awhhh… Poor Oscar. Please post another picture when he is feeling all better.

80 Claire 02.08.07 at 1:34 pm

That shadow on the wall is amazing. Poor lickle doggy.

81 The Honourable Gladys Anstruther 02.08.07 at 2:50 pm

Oh mah gosh, prosh prosh prosh.

82 Subhangi 02.08.07 at 3:00 pm

Awwww, poor lil’ pup.

83 MelissaLovesPugs 02.08.07 at 3:04 pm

Poor little precious bebeh! He needs hugs and cuddles!

84 Theo 02.08.07 at 3:26 pm

TFMS & the Destroyers! Rockin’!

85 Susan R. 02.08.07 at 4:07 pm

Anyone care to paint Oscar on black velvet?

86 Paulette 02.08.07 at 7:09 pm

Blue Cast Blues

Now my pic is on Cute Overload, I knows I’m cute…but sad.

Waaaahaaaaaaa!

87 Faye 02.08.07 at 7:11 pm

Maybe if he visits Cute Overload he will feel better.

88 Tara 02.08.07 at 7:52 pm

He’s just unbelieveably adorable, dance floor pout and all, and now I wants me one! I didn’t even know about the Affenpincher breed but it was love at first sight.

89 tracey 02.08.07 at 8:56 pm

I must know what kind of a puppy this is! SOOOOOOOO cute!

90 Hannah 02.08.07 at 9:23 pm

His fluffy shadow looks so cool!

91 ajax 02.08.07 at 10:30 pm

92 Lauri 02.08.07 at 11:37 pm

93 Susan 02.09.07 at 12:40 am

Sniffle. I hope little dude is ok.

94 Alice Shortcake 02.09.07 at 3:37 pm

The saddest little dog I’ve ever seen. I hope his leg will be better soon.

95 darkshines 02.09.07 at 6:01 pm

When Tom Waits wrote Rain Dogs, it was about this little dude….*plays harmonica*

96 Skittles 02.09.07 at 7:22 pm

Awww! I can relate since I broke my wrist and now have a cast on it. Baroo, little guy! Get better…

97 jordan Grabow 02.09.07 at 11:37 pm

does anyone else see how remarkable the shadow is?

98 Zoe 02.10.07 at 4:21 pm

i have a doggie called pippy and she is very cute i might send you a photo of my precious dog.

99 carmen 02.11.07 at 4:08 am

I just wanna give this little guy a whole mess of kisses!!!

100 Scott 02.11.07 at 12:35 pm

This is the saddest dog I’ve ever seen. All it needs now is an emo MySpace profile.

101 Theo 02.13.07 at 5:27 pm

The blues eats emo with a moonshine chaser, sonny.

102 luvylove 04.27.07 at 5:53 pm

I seriously can’t even handle how cute this sad sweet baby is!! My head just popped off!

103 annie 05.02.07 at 1:35 am

104 jessica jones 06.15.07 at 7:14 pm

Hey everyone, that’s my little dog Oscar you have all been loving (with the exception of Danny, but to each his own). Oscar is a Brussels Griffon and he’s in excellent shape now. Fully recovered and still pouting daily to get his way!

105 Theo 06.15.07 at 7:16 pm

Thanks, Jessica J. Nice pic.

106 i luv candy* 06.27.07 at 11:28 pm
