18 Kar 05.24.07 at 2:57 am

That pup’s expression just kills me.

We’re putting up with a lot they’re thinking.

20 Jen 05.24.07 at 3:02 am

Bwahahaha!! I actually LOL’d at this.

21 oaklandcat 05.24.07 at 3:07 am

Me too! LO fricking L.

22 Tina Rhea 05.24.07 at 3:16 am

Is that a baby quail or pheasant? Those stripes don’t look very chickeny.

Our neighbor has a Newfie– when the dog puts his feet up on the fence, we’re eye to eye. Hope this one looks out where he puts his feet with a chick in the room.

23 Aubrey 05.24.07 at 3:28 am

If that dog sneezes, someone’s going to learn to fly a lot sooner than he expected.

24 leah b. 05.24.07 at 3:40 am

Is tha thuge pooch even happy with this tiny freind ??? I don’t know If I can even tell. I just hope the tiny one does not get stepped on…..

25 R. Moore 05.24.07 at 3:41 am

Tina R., that’s a chicken :)

Lots of different types of chickens.

26 Peg of Tilling 05.24.07 at 4:02 am

“No, really, I just dropped my quarter a second ago–mind if I look?”

27 Maritimer 05.24.07 at 4:17 am

Carolyn J. – that’s what I thought, too! Hot? Newfoundland? Oh, the dog! Right, right.

28 Subhangi 05.24.07 at 4:27 am

SQUEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! Lof the chickie and the newfie!

LOL@ Aubrey.

29 Tina Rhea 05.24.07 at 4:38 am

R. Moore, thanks for the chicken info. The little one doesn’t look like my grandmother’s chickens.

30 musicchick2 05.24.07 at 4:45 am

^5 Aubs!

The dog is like, “Oh great… another piece of the obstacle course. BIG sigh”

The chickie, on the other hand, is like “Doh de doh….doh de doh…takin’ a little walk here… Doh de doh…WT? is THAT????

31 Caitlin 05.24.07 at 4:52 am

hahahahaha, Newfies are my favorite. (Look at those eyyyyes!) Chickons are my other favorite. This pic made my LIFE. :D

Actually, chickons + cats or dogs makes me happy. I loved the chicken babysitter the other day. I even posted it on my locker at work!

32 Dale 05.24.07 at 5:21 am

Chicken: Wait, are the ones that point up the stalactites or the stalagmites…?

33 hrh.squeak 05.24.07 at 7:18 am

Aubrey and Dale -

HAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAA!!!

PS. Don’t tell me the facts. They bore me.

35 Theo 05.24.07 at 12:45 pm

Echo — I believe you have a bright and prosperous future in politics before you.

36 cutebabyfix.com 05.24.07 at 1:15 pm

Echo- are you the chikon or the Newfie? The first part of your comment sounds like the chikon, and the second sounds like the newfie- mebbe you can has a split personality?

37 luvinmalssomuch 05.24.07 at 1:22 pm

I hope the dog doesn’t inhale he’ll suck the poor lil birdie up his nostrils.

38 Eastie 05.24.07 at 2:40 pm

I love Newfies! My parents had a pup that was part Newfoundland, part black lab. Such a sweetheart. They sure do love the water!

Such a cute picture.

39 StormCat 05.24.07 at 2:50 pm

I’m surprised you all don’t recognize the newest thing in electronics!! This is the all new, never before offered on TV, nose hair remover by Ronco!! It requires no electricity, so it’s great for the environment!! All you need is a little corn feed and fresh water and you’ll never have to worry about your pooch having that embarrassing nose hair again!! (It can also be used for humans, however the FDA has not yet approved it…)

40 Gray Lensman 05.24.07 at 2:59 pm

Reminds me of the teevee commercial from years ago:

“Dog? What dog?”

41 Charlotte in Encinitas 05.24.07 at 3:25 pm

the bird is in high heels! ahhahahahahha…

42 ThreeCatNight 05.24.07 at 3:54 pm

Newfoundland: “Gad, what did I have to drink last night? And now I’m seein’ baby chicks for Pete’s sake!”
Chick: “I’ll just keep on truckin’ by!”

43 alynch 05.24.07 at 4:03 pm

Wow… I had a Newfie growing up. Most amazing breed of dog that’s ever walked this earth.

Oh, and they’re like giant teddy-bears. :-)

44 Theo 05.24.07 at 4:22 pm

Oh Aaaaaar-vaaaay… it’s a Newwwww-fieeeee!……

45 Arvay 05.24.07 at 4:42 pm

I love the dog’s expression. He’s all “sigh! Not again. Here comes that little bird to bother me.”

47 annie 05.24.07 at 8:43 pm

Chick: Hello, Hellllooooo in there! is anybody hoooommmmee!

Dog: “Sigh” Rolls Eyes. Little bird That is my Nostril you are trying to enter. Now go play with the other chicks

48 Noelegy 05.24.07 at 9:22 pm

49 Shannon Johnson 05.24.07 at 11:43 pm

I have a Newfoundland, and one time she was playing with a large spider. Then she snorted it, and looked up at me like “Where’d my friend go?”

They are gentle giants!

53 novabubble 05.25.07 at 11:39 pm

Newf love *sigh*
I want to have chickens in my yard but the town won’t let me….
And I live near Newfoundland too.. it ain’t fair, I tell ya.
Thank you so much for lightening my day.

54 Sarah 05.26.07 at 2:17 am

That’s a baby Guinea fowl. It’s a sort of chicken.

55 Newflover 05.26.07 at 3:13 am

Disapproving rabbits? HA!!
You have not been disapproved of until a Newf has done it.
My human munchkin was old enough to play in a room on her own. Yet she was young enough to still make bad choices. Newf is on the floor in the room. I am across the room when munchkin decides to try to climb the windowsill. I say, “Child, NO, you need to get down, that is not safe”, in a loud, stern, Mommy voice. Newf walks his front legs to a sitting position, looks at me with a horrible look on his face, heaves a sigh as only a 166lb Newf can. Then he turns his face to the wall, thumps back down facing the wall and heaves a sigh again. I know he was telling me “How dare you raise your voice to that darling angel?”
You have not been disapproved of until your parenting skills have been disapproved of by a Newf.

56 Newflover 05.26.07 at 3:17 am

P.S.
I felt the need to explain myself to and apologise to the dog.
