Sorry, we’re out of sugar gliders…

by Not That Mike The Other Mike on July 3, 2008

… may we offer you a nice puppy instead?  Time for a C.O. math lesson: (Dainty Paws * Paws Up) + Look of Helplessness = Pudding Brains!

You diss these nails, and I am SO biting you.

Your Ringo is quite a star, Jen D.

Oh wow…those ears!

2 hon glad 07.03.08 at 8:49 am

Silky fur and dainty paw pads,cradled in a strong pair of protective hands=Pudding brains

3 Trisha 07.03.08 at 8:52 am

what about eye capsules?! Lest us not forget those little nuggets of goodness!

4 fish eye no miko 07.03.08 at 9:05 am

The tiny ears! The widdle nose! The face! The–[head explodes]

5 foxy 07.03.08 at 9:13 am

Ok, he’s not really mine. I wish. He belongs to a friend of a friend and he’s about a week old in this pic. But I saw it and couldn’t resist.

6 Katrina 07.03.08 at 9:34 am

Arielle- you said it- those impossible little ears!

7 Cara 07.03.08 at 9:55 am

And what will the little cutie be when it grows up? A dachshound?

8 J. Bo 07.03.08 at 10:21 am

The earses, the paws, the weensy schnozzle– what a tasty little boo-boo! I’d say “snack size”– one and a half chocolate bites, at the VERY most…

9 redhed 07.03.08 at 11:11 am

I want to rub my thumb on that sleek little head and that tiny sliver of pink bell-bell is killing me!

10 Berdine 07.03.08 at 11:31 am

She is a miniature longhaired Dachshund named Ringo. Her brother is even more cute…if you can imagine THAT being possible!

11 snorglepup 07.03.08 at 11:32 am

Little pocket-pup for a quick snorgle fix.
May I have two please?

12 snorglepup 07.03.08 at 11:34 am

Mmm.I could nibble those little ears right off.
Nom nom nom…

13 crazyweinerdoglady 07.03.08 at 11:40 am

weinerdog? really? Wow, the ears are so short! lol SO cute though.

14 crazyweinerdoglady 07.03.08 at 11:41 am

NOM

15 Theresa 07.03.08 at 11:41 am

Mini-airplane ears!

That little one looks fresh out of the oven, if you know what I mean.

16 Kris 07.03.08 at 11:53 am

What a teeny tiny little pup!

17 metsakins 07.03.08 at 12:07 pm

you think that the average CO’er can’t look at a puppeh with out *dissolves in to goo*

18 Layla42 07.03.08 at 12:11 pm

Awesome mouseover. Srsly.

And those teensy feets! I don’t think he’ll mind if I nibble on those little bitty paw paddies..

19 Ray 07.03.08 at 12:14 pm

Widdle Dauchshund *__*
OMG

20 Theo 07.03.08 at 12:23 pm

Now THAT is how to do a hovertext. Bravo, Other Mike. Bravo.

21 Babs 07.03.08 at 12:40 pm

So tiny! So shiny! So verreh nummy! I neeble gently so as not to wake her up.

22 Lurker 07.03.08 at 12:46 pm

TINEEE PUPPEEE!

23 Kari 07.03.08 at 12:55 pm

SQUEEEE!!! I love the teensy widdle claws! Even those look nommable in such a teeny tiny puppeh! Yep, I think Ringo is definitely a star(let). So, what’s her brother’s name?

24 catablob 07.03.08 at 1:02 pm

OMG OMG OMG!

25 ThreeCatNight 07.03.08 at 1:15 pm

I Want to Hold Your Paw!

26 browngrl 07.03.08 at 1:18 pm

that is an entirely acceptable trade – I shall take my pup in a cup and go

27 Redzilla 07.03.08 at 1:44 pm

Eye capsules!
Helpless belly!
Delectable paw pads!
Redonk ears!

Oh, and love the new innovation: Anti-Nuff Hovertext.

28 Beth 07.03.08 at 1:58 pm

must…have…..puppeh……

excuse me, suh, but I’d like to have more, please!

29 Erebella 07.03.08 at 2:03 pm

Oh, could you watch your step there? (says to co-worker) Yeah, that’s my brains on the floor. I know it looks like pudding, just hush and go away.

Yeah, thanks Mike.

30 chanpon 07.03.08 at 2:12 pm

Oh, must be one of those cocktail weinies. He looks delish!

His mini paw pads and ears are killing me.

31 Ashley 07.03.08 at 2:17 pm

Pretty sure it’s a mini pin but its soooo cute!

32 Theresa 07.03.08 at 2:34 pm

@Kris, this one surely qualifies as “teeny-tiny-toony.”

33 DKN 07.03.08 at 2:36 pm

Put it back! It’s not done yet!

34 gryt 07.03.08 at 2:37 pm

Omg… this is too moishe. The itty bittyness! Also, I *heart* the round top of the head and those awesomest of ears.

Cutest ears in the history of cute ears?

35 Metz 07.03.08 at 2:45 pm

I KNEW I should stay away from here when my sinuses are all clogged and the pressure is so intense.

(SPLOOOOODE)
I swear I can smell the sweet puppeh smell even through this quite useless nose I have right now.

36 crackjob 07.03.08 at 3:00 pm

WHY IS THAT PUPPY SO EENSY?!

*bleen*

37 The Other One Michelle 07.03.08 at 3:08 pm

Wow. Just…wow. Perfect.

38 revolution724 07.03.08 at 3:40 pm

I would never be able to have this picture taken. If I had that little baby in my hands, all you would be able to see would be the back of my head as I was smooching her on that copious forehead.

39 Rachel Sweeden 07.03.08 at 3:58 pm

The pup is adorable.

40 berthaservant 07.03.08 at 4:38 pm

This could not any cuter be.

41 Michelle 07.03.08 at 4:44 pm

tee hee. micro chub!

*nibbles delicately*

42 AuntieMame 07.03.08 at 4:55 pm

Maybe no one else noticed, NTMTOM, but I caught your pun, too. Ringo *is* a star, just like the eponymous Beatle. :)

43 Ameri 07.03.08 at 5:04 pm

SQUEEEE! Aww, my brain is gonna leave a stain there.

44 Yitzysmommie 07.03.08 at 6:27 pm

Metz, I too am suffering (speechlessly, too) with stuffy schnozzle & sore throat & the I-feel-sorry-for-myselfses.
But I just made myself feel better by licking those paw pads. DEElish! I nevaire thought I could leeck a doggles paw pads until today.

45 LisaL 07.03.08 at 6:29 pm

*gasps* I’ll take the puppeh instead!!! Right after I put my head back together b/c it just ’sploded from the cute!!

46 Meaghan 07.03.08 at 6:42 pm

Is that puppy old enough to be away from its mom? It’s soo teeny. My pet rats are bigger than that. And so delectable! The leg wrinkles! The shiny forehead! The nibbleable ears! The clean paw pads!

47 jmuhj 07.03.08 at 7:07 pm

EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!
No THANKS.

48 jolynn 07.03.08 at 7:20 pm

50 Theo 07.03.08 at 7:30 pm

You got pockets in there or something, Bean?

51 foxy 07.03.08 at 8:09 pm

The lovely Ringo lives with her mother and brother in a wee little village in the wilds of Eastern Ontario. So she isn’t actually away from her mom.

And I’m still kinda in awe from my first accepted submish.

52 The Other One Michelle 07.03.08 at 8:28 pm

Best. Hovertext. Ever.

Or of the day. Whatevs.

53 can'tstandsitanymore 07.03.08 at 9:24 pm

nobody, not even the rain, has such small paws.

54 fleabit 07.03.08 at 10:08 pm

this puppy is too teeny to nom, unfortunately, you just have to pop him in your mouf like a popcorn shrimp

55 fleabit 07.03.08 at 10:14 pm

gorgeous submish, foxy. the cuteness factors at work here, all magically in sync with each other, can not be understated. I mean, the toes, the toe pads, the baby butter bean ears . . .

56 joliesmom 07.03.08 at 10:17 pm

That’s what my doxie’s pups looked like when I helped her deliver them! Dose ears duh tootest. :D

57 A 07.03.08 at 10:29 pm

SHHHHHHHHHHHHHH………..wee one is sleeping……and…….look at the teeny weeny paws!!!

58 scooterpants 07.04.08 at 12:29 am

“HE’S AN ANGEL STRAIGHT FROM HEAVEN!”, “you know you gotta get him his dip-tep right? and what about his orthadonture, you got that set up right?, and his university….”
“we got that set up right honey??? honey????”
(stolen right straight off a Raising Arizona peoples)

59 meadowgirl 07.04.08 at 12:32 am

*ded of teh cuteness* oh, that’s presh!

60 Liz 07.04.08 at 2:14 am

EES SO TINY!

I’d love to see my fully-grown dog trying to make sense of the existence of that tiny tiny thing.

61 Jenn 07.04.08 at 4:28 am

Teeny tiny wiener. eeeeee…

62 Subhangi 07.04.08 at 6:02 am

64 Freddy 07.04.08 at 2:16 pm

65 cara 07.04.08 at 2:45 pm

66 Bramble 07.04.08 at 6:24 pm

OK, I usually prefer kittehs and weird animals to pups, but this one is WORMY!!!! SQEEEEEE!

67 karen in toronto 07.04.08 at 7:27 pm

whispers: “Pawsickie! Pawsickie!” Chokes on rainbow.

68 BeanSidhe 07.04.08 at 8:01 pm

No pockets. Just Adequate Rack Space.

69 Reese A. 07.05.08 at 4:47 pm

OMG, his name is Ringo! He is a Starr!

70 May 07.05.08 at 8:44 pm

Oh I just want 2 hold it so badly!

71 Audrey 07.07.08 at 5:13 am

In March, Meg posted a picture of a flying squirrel, which just happened to be cradled in my hands. I have tiny bitten fingernails that you’d think would be completely inoffensive… but somebody commented to complain about them.

I really love it when animals are cradled in a person’s hands. I think it makes it all the cuter, and adds another layer of complexity – it gives scale to the creature, shows the carefulness of the human and trust of the animal, and generally shows the dialogue between human and creature. This perfect pocket puppeh is cute, cute, cute – and all the cuter because the big, protective hands make her look so small, and she trusts the person so much and OH MY GOD IS THAT HER TINY LITTLE TAIL?

72 Trina 08.10.08 at 2:19 am

Well it is nice to see Ringo on here but I must say that I was surprised due to the fact that I am the owner and had no clue that someone scooped the pic. if you crave more of this beautiful litter girl and her brother, who I might add just won a best puppy in show, go to http://paradachkennels.googlepages.com
