Flipping out over Flipper
Dolphin-safe haiku
(random squealing and clicking), Maria N.
Could it be true love?
Could our dolphin love be real?
But who rears the kids?
My skin is shiney
Your fur is also shiney
We love based on that
That Lab looks as though he’s found his porpoise in life.
Sniff sniff . . . .
Something smells fishy!
But wait, dolphins are not fish
It must be my breath
As long as you’re my
Baby it don’t matter if
You’re black or you’re grey
Something isn’t right
I can’t place my paw on it
But it smells fishy
Dolphin: Pssst…remember this – 42
Doggie: SHINY!
Dolphin: Seriosly, 42. Trust me you will need to know this. I am telling you this, bubelah, because I like you.
Doggie: SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINY!!
Dolphin: I came all the way here from my underwater laboratory where I am thisclose to successfully using a bunsen burner, diet Fanta (orange, natch), and a Charlston Chew to create an entirely new planet. Or, a delicious snack treat that is REALLY big…..not sure which. Anyhoo, please tell all your friend to remember “42″. Your species is awesome and this information is crucial to your exponentially increasing levels of cuteness.
Doggie: SHINYSHINYSHINY
Dolphin: *sigh*
I call interspecies snorgling! That dolphin is totally kissing the pup on the nose.
Here is my try
Nose to nose we meet
What kind of creature are you?
Squee, Bark, we both speak.
Confused pupperson
Unsure why this squeaky toy
Can’t be retrieved
Meeting at the edge
I used to have paws like you
We love the water
Special sniffing dog
Has successfully ID’d
Dolphin contraband.
Puppy dreams a lot
Wishing he were a porpoise
For his dolphin love
Puppy and the Dolphin
Who knows how this will all end
Should be fun to watch!
Dawg of the Dolphin.
Paw loves Fa. Wet noisicles
Bridge the species gap.
On the internet
You said you’re dark and handsome!
You said you’re bubbly!
Best friends forever
Different in many ways
But the same at heart
So long, and thanks for all the fish!
“My name’s Prince the Dog.”
“Since I am a Dolphin , sir,
I’m the prince of France.”
[sequel to #12]
How in the world did
You ever think you could sneak
This guy through customs?!
Needs more Trinary.
Crideiki would still approve.
Streaker is still lost.
“Clickety squeeeel click!”
“Awooof! Woofwoof! Woofwoofwoofwoof!”
The summer is hot.
Interspecies love
Clandestine meeting places
Tiny leetle kees
You are all awesome. And Saffron is even awesomer!
My fair wet maiden
A doggie paddle later
A snorgle for now
Like that star-crossed pair,
Romeo and Juliet,
We love, ill-fated.
Yes, big applause here for Saffron!
@ Saffron–hehe! Bravo!
We’d see eye to eye,
If your nose wasn’t so long,
My new steel grey friend!
Yes, but can you “sit”?
“Shake-a-paw” and “play dead”, too?
I didn’t think so!
@Argyle
Tis Simple my friend
they figured they’d squeak on by
you may all groan now
Any followers of Two Lumps on here 2day? Sad news over there.
@ Leanna: Yay !!
“hey! sneak me some fish!”
says the dolphin to the dog
“Tuna or Salmon?”
wahwahwah. not very creative today….
click click click click click
Squeak click clickity click click
Squeak click click squeak click?
the dolphin version… need to cover all bases.
It’s not ment to be
I come from land, you the sea
But now I’m happy
Saffron & Leilani….great Doug Adams references….although shouldn’t poochers remember 43?
Black lab ponders this:
Just how big is the dog who
will fetch this squeak toy?
Who’d have ever thought
That a Dolphin could be taught
to take Dog on walks?
What a shiny coat!
Your owner must put an egg
In your food daily!
Dolphin:
Ah, true love at last.
I’ve never been so happy.
It’s like I’m floating.
Dog:
Uh-oh. This is bad.
I just wanted to frolic–
Dinner with the pod?!
Who woulda thunk it
I finally found someone
With a colder nose
@Saffron – Ha!Ha!Ha!LOL!LOL!LOL!*breather*Ha!Ha!Ha!LOL!LOL!LOL!
Is this an Encore Presentayshe? I KNOW I’ve seen it somewhere…
trepidatious dog
wonders: is this friend or foe?
chicken of the sea
Coming out of stall
Something is not right in here
Not in Puppy’s room
Leaving embarrassed
Away from Dolphin’s bathroom
At least got a peek
Why do I cheapen their special moment with a Larry Craig haiku?
too shiny for real.
did someone bring me a toy?
a blow-up dolphin!!
Look, a big toilet!
Paws on edge to reach the drink
OMG what’s this????
Dog and Dolphin love
but it is not meant to be
pool versus dry land
Is love at first sight?
Your nosicle is moist, too.
This will be our bond.
I also vote for Saffron- hilarious! So are many others. I love this adorable pic, but I can’t help wonder the story behind it; how did these two get together?
So long, and thanks for all the fish!
I give you this kiss
Symbol of our loving traits
Both peaceful creatures
Gleaming silver skin,
Beautiful shiny black coat.
It’s a polish joke!
I thought I had warned
you already the last time.
Don’t pee in our pool!
Puppy eyes look deep
Into dolphin’s rubber soul
Squeaky clean true love
Don’t forget your towel……
Dog thought bubble:
You have a wet nose
But you are the strangest dog
I have ever seen
Dolphin thought bubble:
Dumb dog I’m dolphin
I am much smarter than you
But you are quite cute
I’m not cool enough
To get Saffron’s clever post.
Can someone explain?
Looked around and it said that this pic was from the Indianapolis Zoo.
the pupper knows that’s some sort of dog but can’t figure out where the matchingks is…
@skippymom: It refers to Douglas Adams’ Hitch-hiker’s Guide to the Galaxy trilogy (which is about five or six books long…..)
@skippymom – also, the last book was “So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish”.
@Saffron – a worthy addition to the Adams Canon, IMO. Well done!
Boop!
@Diana
This is even worse
than what I found floating in
the toilet last time!
Ah, victoreia, now it all fits together. Thank you. And so long, and thanks for all the fish, which I recognized as a book title, but didn’t know the connection to Saffron’s bit. Of course.
I was relatively cool when I was younger, and was of course aware of the Hitch-hiker’s Guide, but it wasn’t part of my life.
It’s ok skippy(mom)
I did not get it either
Never read the book
So sweet! I love inter-species friendships..
I love this photo!
The dolphin is so shiny.
And Pup is perplexed.
Dolphin’s languid gaze
Lingers on her sleek, black beau.
He is mesmerized.
You silly old dog!
This is not what we mean by
“trouble at the well.”
I say there, matey,
would you know how to get to
the nearest Seaworld?
At the water bowl,
Labrador Alice wonders,
What was in that cake?
The page is now GOLD!
were that it all could be mine!
Continue to dream.
Interspecies snorg
makes trip to aquarium
oh so romantic
We should not have played
With the Crazy Glue bottle
We are forever
Saffron riffs Adams
Dog and dolphin get cozy
good Friday for all
Gives dolphin a kiss
Don’t you just love dog sugars?
You’re wet any way
@Jenn LOL at your “polish” joke!
Aw shucks, all. Thankies for the props and kindly not pointing out my typos. (Or is it typoes, for the Quaylian spelling?)
Everyone’s haikus are soooo awesome..especially Derz and Suzanne!! They made me laugh ’till I snorted soda out of my nose…which REALLY hurts, by the way.
Have a wonderful weekend everyone and remember to give your pets some snorgles.
Two diff’rent species
Both loving a pool with balls
Great friendship ahead
Shocking dolphin kiss
Caught me quite off guard since I
Only sought my ball
They’re both adorable. But it kills me that this dolphin is in captivity, they absolutely don’t belong there. Cute, nonetheless.
One furry, one slick.
Shouldn’t I give him a lick?
I think it not wise.
@skippymom:
About “so long and thanks for all the fish”: I learnt on the internet that it’s a song. It goes like this:
So long, and thanks for all the fish
So sad it had to come to this
Too bad you never listened to me
So long, and see you soony.
So long and thanks for all the flies
They tried to make you a nice surprise
You tried whacking them on the floor
So that’s why they’ll kick you out the door
So long and thanks for all the rope
That stopped the robber and tied up the goats
However I think they needed space
Not to be tied up all over the place
So long and thanks for everything
Which wasn’t much, you know. I sing
This song about the stuff you did
Which wasn’t good, like when you murdered a squid……..
So long and thanks for all the fish
So sad it had to come to this
So long and thanks for all the fish
So sad it had to come to this
So long.
And when you have read “The Hitchhiker’s Guide”, go get Terry Pratchett’s books.
You”ll thank me. Several times. Effusively.
lol omg could a dolphin be in love with dog
ps you have to break it to him his love lives underwater and he lives on land
LOL
lol omg
that is so funny could he be in love with a dolphin?!?!?!?!?!?!?
ps you have to break to him his love lives underwater and he lives on land!!!!!
LMFAO @ Safron “SHIIIIIINY!!!”
Dear Saffron-
Please, for the sake of you nasal passages, your sini (sinuses?) put down the potable(s) before gazing. You’ll thank me. Your friends will thanks you. Your keyboard and monitor will thank you.
Ouch! Theo did it with hot coffee at lest one that he owned up to.
From your fellow Peep who knows- K.
@ Malinki: Now let’s see that in Trinary and Primal! (Well done!)
Thank you for noticing in the sea of Doublas Adams references, procrastinatrix
# Glory! Is, is,
Glory!#
Dolphins in captivity are so sad
@kk3 yes, this is the Indianapolis zoo. The Dolphin Dogs are no longer working with our dolphins as they used to, but this pooch is still around
@taylor I work at the Indianapolis zoo, where this picture was taken, and I can assure you our dolphins are anything but sad
