What a sweet pair!! That iglet puppy looks like a mini weimaraner.

2 Jennie Mello 02.09.09 at 2:27 pm

I obviously should be working. But, guys, I think I will just squeeze in here with you. thx.

3 SoCalSis 02.09.09 at 2:29 pm

So wonderful for a Monday Morning. Somehow the paisleys put it over the top.

4 Kyra 02.09.09 at 2:35 pm

I want to play with their puppychops and tickle their toesies!

5 Kit 02.09.09 at 2:37 pm

Totem dogs. Now saving 20% more space than non-totem dogs. Also, 75% cuter! Can’t go wrong with those numbers!

6 Looloobelle 02.09.09 at 2:39 pm

If I could just…grab that…miniature…elbow chub….ahh, that’s made my Monday. G’bye folks! My work here is done.

7 Rebecca 02.09.09 at 2:40 pm

OK, this is really too much. But no mention of rule #7 and an almost #40?

8 T.U.M. 02.09.09 at 2:46 pm

Awwwww! That mamma dog puts the “Ma” in “WeiMAraner.”

9 katiedid 02.09.09 at 2:48 pm

I smell matchingks!!!!!!!

10 stellasmom 02.09.09 at 2:54 pm

Still trying to decipher breed of nubbulous puppitude.

11 Linda H. 02.09.09 at 3:09 pm

Awww. Speechless.

12 Theresa 02.09.09 at 3:09 pm

Does anyone else hear the William Tell Overture in their heads? Not the exciting “Lone Ranger” part, the peaceful “Ranz des Vaches” English horn solo part.

(PS Katrina, could you refuse the William Tell Overture?)

13 Clare 02.09.09 at 3:13 pm

This isn’t just matchingks, it’s a LESSON in matchingks.

May I nom them please?

14 anon 02.09.09 at 3:17 pm

Fractal pups!

15 Hon Glad 02.09.09 at 3:31 pm

Sleeping sweeties with knobbly feeties.

16 Metz 02.09.09 at 3:48 pm

(pushes glasses to end of nose to create scientific look)
Ok folks, no need to panic, I’ll have this growth removed STAT!
(grabs velveteen puppeh & runs)

19 Von Zeppelin 02.09.09 at 4:30 pm

Sleeping in a stack like that is technically known as “Weimaraning.”

20 certified cutologist 02.09.09 at 4:34 pm

i can just hear big HONK-SHU! and one little honk-shu…

21 Theo 02.09.09 at 4:35 pm

On rare occasions, kitties do this too. Then it’s called “Catamaraning”.
Unless it ever happens at sea, because y’know, too confusing.

22 biscuithead 02.09.09 at 4:36 pm

Must.
Nom.
Leetle.
Toesies!

23 holligans 02.09.09 at 4:37 pm

Lovely photo, appreciate the bonus naphancement. Plus “morsel” is one of my most favorite words.

24 Noelle 02.09.09 at 4:40 pm

That made my morning! How totally adorable.
*snuggles in to share nap*

25 Renee 02.09.09 at 4:41 pm

Oh so cute and snuggly! I would have to say that is an Itallian greyhound napping on that weimaraner! I want to squeeze them!!!

26 Von Zeppelin 02.09.09 at 4:57 pm

@Renee–That’s not just a mini-Weimaraner? Interesting that these dog owners got the “Mini-me” copy of their big dog. I wonder if they also have a gray-furred Great Dane to complete the set.

27 Paunchie 02.09.09 at 5:02 pm

Italian grey hound? I thought it was a Weimerainer puppeh. Napping between singing sessions…

28 Paunchie 02.09.09 at 5:13 pm

I don’t think “without reverence” sounds right in that Austen ad. Somebody tell them they must mean
“without reservation”. It bugs.

29 SunbeamNapper 02.09.09 at 5:56 pm

Paunchie, the ad is for an Austen-based book, not an actual Asten book, and so anyone who reads it must be willing to suspend Janeite reverence. Hope that reduces the bugging. Now back to our regularly scheduled sunbeam napping.

30 Mary (the first) 02.09.09 at 6:22 pm

I almost missed the little one at first! I would so love to push my nose into their tummies and snuffle.
My cat lays on top of me like this but we do not look nearly as gorgeous.

31 Boomer's Babysitter 02.09.09 at 6:30 pm

Is it really another breed and not a puppy?! Either way, it’s super-cute. Want the little one, so we can grow up together. What? I’m already grown up? Sez who?!

GAHHHHH the tiny dog…can’t breathe….*dies*

38 Elsie 02.09.09 at 7:04 pm

Is that dog pink on anyone else’s screen? What the hayle? I larf it.

39 Bugmom 02.09.09 at 7:28 pm

It is indeed a seperate breed. The little one is a Italian Greyhound. They are known for their parachute ears and spindly legs where weimeys have that great floppity velveteen ginormous floppage of ear leather and a nice chicken drummy-ness to their rear sitcks. We have the weimey, we wanted and Iggy, we got a long haired wah-wah due to odd circumstances. I love how they match so well. We rescued a female weimy and at the foster home there was an Iggy that matched. I almost stole her.
Weimeys are suped smart and very much the trouble maker! Anyone who has had one has stories. Even so. I love the breed and want a farm full of them!

40 Katrina 02.09.09 at 7:58 pm

Now, Theresa, if I told you it would be the “Kiss and Tell Overture”.

41 compy-saur 02.09.09 at 8:01 pm

“naphance”???

I like!

42 AmyJ 02.09.09 at 8:08 pm

That is so lovely! So relaxed, so secure – I think they love each other.

43 fish eye no miko 02.09.09 at 8:11 pm

Someone totally needs to make a Website with nothing but animals sleeping on top of other animals…

44 Theresa 02.09.09 at 8:19 pm

Katrina, snerk!

Iggies and Weimies seem to have a lot in common. Those tangly, curled-up limbs!

45 Theresa 02.09.09 at 8:20 pm

PS “Weimaraner” is spelled correctly in the hovertext. It means “Someone from Weimar (Germany).”

46 Kristabelle 02.09.09 at 8:36 pm

Too adorable! Makes me want to snuggle up right there beside them. No worries, I’ll sleep on the edge…

47 Zoe Doom 02.09.09 at 9:40 pm

Cuteness aside, I love it when Meg says “mofo.”

48 Katrina 02.09.09 at 9:44 pm

I got snerked by Theresa, I got snerked by Theresa!

No the correct spelling is Weimerheimeraneranheraner.

49 Theo 02.09.09 at 9:49 pm

Johhhhhn Jacob Weimaranar Schmidt, his name is my name toooooo…

50 Rocket 02.09.09 at 9:52 pm

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwww…………….. ..goes on forever..

I have a Weimaraner named Hazel; she should totally be on CuteOverload! n_n

I’m seriously loving all the Weim posts/videos lately. More WEIMARANER, nao plz!

51 gryt 02.09.09 at 10:08 pm

They’re spooooning!

52 Von Zeppelin 02.09.09 at 10:15 pm

@Theresa–So, you’re saying these dogs are from the Weimar Republic? They must be the kind of Germans who made expressionist films and hung around in the cabarets and flew in zeppelins. They seem much to nice to be Nazis.

53 skip 02.09.09 at 10:47 pm

How cute! If everyone could nap like that we’d have no more war in the world. :)

54 Patito Gigante 02.09.09 at 11:50 pm

56 spb 02.10.09 at 1:51 am

Oh my… Iggy looks like a little monkey.

57 Theresa 02.10.09 at 2:23 am

Yes, Von Zep, and here we see ze runaway hyper-pupflation. Offer on ze left, ve see von Sternberg directing die Dietrich in a zeen frrrrom zere next mooffie, mit ze moozik frrom Paul Hindemith und Kurt Weill.

58 Evie 02.10.09 at 2:56 am

@ VonZeppelin: Breed standards for Weimaraners were developed in the 1800s, very similar dogs are reported to have existed in the 1200s (this obviously predates Nazi Germany). How could a dog be Nazi, anyway?

The little ‘un is definitely not a Weimaraner puppy, he’s far too thin and his ears aren’t Weimaraner ears. He could be a whippet puppy, but I think the Italian Greyhound suggestion is right.

59 milkfilledandroid 02.10.09 at 3:54 am

oh! way to live it up in nappomattox!

60 Lynda 02.10.09 at 4:20 am

I bet they smell dee-lic-ious-ness…like sleepy babies!

61 Jane 02.10.09 at 5:01 am

Thank you, Meg, for posting another Weim! That makes 2 in 2 weeks, doesn’t it? Nice to see the weimaraner getting its fair share of cute appreciation. After all, the breed is especially well-adapted to the pleading eyes:

62 Don Lake 02.10.09 at 12:20 pm

It was the marketing department’s decision to have the dogs come in Grape and Cran-Apple. The focus groups didn’t go for Lemon-Lime.

63 uisceboo 02.10.09 at 4:08 pm

Similar. Not congruent. :)
