Guess the Breed

by Meg on October 23, 2009

And the winner is… Muffy! Basset Hound! Congratulations! Muffy will be receiving a free wall and desk calendar for her correct answer. I think the schnozzle gave it away.

This little morsel is so small and delectabuhl.

What will he grow up to be? A collie? A German Shepherd? A Chihuahua? A Free Cute Overload 2010 calendar to the first correct answer in the comments!

P1010142

Debra D., don’t tell anyone what the real answer is… By the way, you can look inside the calendars here…

His snout kinda looks like it could slope outward a bit as it grows like a bull terrier- but I’ve only ever seen brindle, white with black, or all white versions of them. Either way- DO WANT!

91 Crystal 10.23.09 at 3:38 pm

St. Bernard?

92 Maria 10.23.09 at 3:39 pm

A bassetthound!

93 Margaret 10.23.09 at 3:39 pm

I believe this cute thing will be a St Bernard.

94 Mary 10.23.09 at 3:40 pm

I’m going with a papillon in its pre-fluff stage.

95 chasingbluesky 10.23.09 at 3:42 pm

Looks like my jack russell when he was a puppy

96 Erin K 10.23.09 at 3:42 pm

106 bunnypoo 10.23.09 at 4:06 pm

114 Alice 10.23.09 at 4:18 pm

English Shepherd?

115 Snarla 10.23.09 at 4:18 pm

Wow, I’m also a Janine and my vote is bull terrier. small world!

116 Hammama 10.23.09 at 4:19 pm

Oh! Clumber Spaniel! Don’t they go by Cumberland though?

117 Delores 10.23.09 at 4:23 pm

English Pointer.

118 Peggy 10.23.09 at 4:25 pm

American Stafford Terrier

119 Vicki 10.23.09 at 4:27 pm

*Pulling random breed out of her rear* I’m gonna go with keeshond, because I have no idea. All I can think, though, is OMG FLESHY EAR-FLAPS!!

120 Gigi 10.23.09 at 4:27 pm

Well I’m too late to make a guess but I would really like to know what it is and who won!

121 Nymavar 10.23.09 at 4:30 pm

Bull Terrier / Cocker Spaniel mix

122 Tiffany 10.23.09 at 4:35 pm

brittany spaniel

123 GT 10.23.09 at 4:37 pm

I can’t believe it. It’s spelled German shepherd (HERD as in herding dog).

124 belphebe 10.23.09 at 4:37 pm

Maine coon.

Or Seal-point Siamese.

;-)

125 Michael Claymore 10.23.09 at 4:39 pm

It’s a Sea Lion.

126 crimson 10.23.09 at 4:39 pm

has anyone said husky yet? i’m sayin’ husky. *hope*

127 Cyndi 10.23.09 at 4:40 pm

A basset hound I say!

128 LF 10.23.09 at 4:41 pm

bulldog. (this guess is based on his nosicle)

129 karla 10.23.09 at 4:44 pm

a potato?

130 Sara 10.23.09 at 4:45 pm

Great pyrenees

131 Nancy 10.23.09 at 4:47 pm

Italian Spinone!

132 Decca 10.23.09 at 4:53 pm

A potato

133 BabyOpossum 10.23.09 at 4:55 pm

Opossum.

134 Lonius 10.23.09 at 4:56 pm

I think it’s a Saint Bernard.

135 Queen of Dork 10.23.09 at 4:57 pm

A Capybara? Although potato could be right…

136 Elaine 10.23.09 at 4:57 pm

A border collie??

137 Von Zeppelin 10.23.09 at 5:02 pm

A rare elephant seal with floppy ears.

138 Susan L 10.23.09 at 5:03 pm

Hmm. Most of the breeds I would have guessed have been guessed already and no one has said “that’s it!” So I’ll try something else. A mastiff?

139 Wordgirl 10.23.09 at 5:09 pm

@ NTMTOM

A newt!
(It got better.)

140 Amber 10.23.09 at 5:12 pm

a lab?

141 Dianne 10.23.09 at 5:12 pm

Staffordshire Bull Terrier.

142 Resriechan 10.23.09 at 5:13 pm

I think that it’s a Clydesdale/ Percheron/ Apaloosa mix.

Signed,
“Didn’t catch on, too quickly”

143 Resriechan 10.23.09 at 5:14 pm

(and I like QoD’s suggestion. But then, I almost ALWAYS do like her suggestions)

144 Alex 10.23.09 at 5:14 pm

Has Boxer been guessed? That’s my guess, anyway. Boxer or pit bull, and pibble I know has been guessed.

145 Carrie 10.23.09 at 5:14 pm

English bull terrier?

146 mary beth 10.23.09 at 5:15 pm

cocker spaniel?

147 Queen of Dork 10.23.09 at 5:19 pm

Resriechan: I think you might be onto something with the Clysedale part.

148 Aquila 10.23.09 at 5:19 pm

My gut reaction is Corgi. Espesh because of the coloration. Not to mention the darkening on the edge of the ears, which LOOKS to indicate heavy cartilage indicative of a “standing-eared” breed like a Corgi. Do I get any points for exposition? ;)

149 Huggins 10.23.09 at 5:20 pm

clumber spaniel

150 Caitlin 10.23.09 at 5:23 pm

basset hound

151 MadameX 10.23.09 at 5:23 pm

Dogo Argentino!

152 Melissa 10.23.09 at 5:24 pm

PUGGLE! PUGGLE! PUGGLE!

153 kibblenibble 10.23.09 at 5:26 pm

a nomlet

(which would go nicely with the potato, for breakfast)

154 Queen of Dork 10.23.09 at 5:27 pm

Wow Aquila! I didn’t know about the whole cartilage, standing ear theory! Cool! It’s like you’re a dog breed detective. :)

155 justabrat 10.23.09 at 5:29 pm

Akita?

156 muffy 10.23.09 at 5:30 pm

These are all good guesses. But clearly it is a Bavarian Snorgling Snoot Hound. The end.

157 Haley J 10.23.09 at 5:30 pm

A brittany spaniel!!

158 justabrat 10.23.09 at 5:31 pm

I’m thinking it could also be a Shiba Inu … ?

159 Becky, Bubba's mum 10.23.09 at 5:39 pm

Newly born Pit Bull Terrier. The schnozz gives it away.

160 Queen of Dork 10.23.09 at 5:40 pm

I think I’ll have a potato nomlet for dinner.

161 Tina 10.23.09 at 5:42 pm

Beagle.

162 Resriechan 10.23.09 at 5:45 pm

How about, we just decide on the Majority Rule here?
By which, it looks that Potato is the Winning Candidate.

Vanna, please present the Calendar to the Winner.

(My, Vanna, THAT is surely a lovely gown tonight !!!)

163 Mrs. Lackey 10.23.09 at 5:46 pm

I haf eet.
it is a baby schnozz on legs, and it will grow up to be a GIANT schnozz on legs.

164 Paula 10.23.09 at 5:48 pm

Labadoodle!

165 Leah 10.23.09 at 5:50 pm

Portuguese Podengo? (Yes that’s a real breed, look it up)

166 Resriechan 10.23.09 at 5:50 pm

(izzit too late, to submit the breed “Snugglebunny”????)

167 Heather L. 10.23.09 at 5:51 pm

English Bull Dog

168 Cynthia 10.23.09 at 5:51 pm

Saint Bernard?

169 Von Zeppelin 10.23.09 at 5:52 pm

In the spirit of Aquila’s ear cartilage examination, I will rescind my previous guess and go all forensic on this puppy. I suggest that the wrinkles along the sagittal midline of the cranium presage large amounts of loose skin in the adult form. So I’m joining the basset hound crowd. (Squeezes in among large group of flappy, wrinkly dogs)

170 AmyJ 10.23.09 at 5:53 pm

No earthly idea what breed it is, but I do know puplet nose needs to be beeped!

Beep!

Beep beep! (Kiss) Beep!

171 Resriechan 10.23.09 at 5:57 pm

@ VZ: (Please note: while the following is stated in a — hopefully– humorous MANNER…..’tis honest appreciation not sarcasm ….Fu real, man).

like, wow, man, I’m, like, TO-tally floored by your like, knowledge of stuff.
Really. wow.

Cheech.

(or Chong; I’m not sure. Wait, let’s check my ID card….)

172 Queen of Dork 10.23.09 at 6:00 pm

Aquila: If you’re not of the uterin/fallopius persuasion please forgive the following:

Ed: I suggest Von Zep and Aquila win the prize for being the Nancy Drew/Hardy Boy of dog breed detection.

173 victorya 10.23.09 at 6:08 pm

OMG! all first guess breeds taken! As I went Cocker Spaniel – no -has to be a hound dog like a beagle.

daschaund? That’s a long little body – not that I’ve seen any that colour!

Akita?

hehehe

Coonhound! I’ll go with that, don’t care about google saying it’s not AKC registered.

174 lorelei 10.23.09 at 6:16 pm

Basset Hound! A Lemon-flavored basset!

175 Amber 10.23.09 at 6:17 pm

I say it is going to be a Collie!

176 Leanne 10.23.09 at 6:20 pm

ShiTzu it looks like our puppies

177 Rachel 10.23.09 at 6:22 pm

Blue heeler. Just not very blue yet. But I’d nom him just the same.

178 Selphie van der Boffin 10.23.09 at 6:23 pm

I would guess Beagle, but that;s already guess so my official guess will be…..greyhound…?

179 Selphie van der Boffin 10.23.09 at 6:24 pm

* that’s *guessed

180 Keely Sayers 10.23.09 at 6:26 pm

I think it’s a miniature bull terrier… like the target mascot.

181 Kim 10.23.09 at 6:26 pm

A Saint Bernard.

182 Visionsmyth 10.23.09 at 6:29 pm

Did anybody guess Borzoi yet? Too many entries, too little time!

183 Visionsmyth 10.23.09 at 6:38 pm

Looks SOOO like my precios Borzoi/Russian Wolfhound when she was just barely borned and hadn’t grown the long schnozz and long legs yet.

184 Queen of Dork 10.23.09 at 6:40 pm

QoD, CSI Agent here. After further examintation of exhibit A, (under a microscope even) it has been definitively determined by the leathery looking ear cartilage co-mingled with the whisker pores on the nosicle region, this creature is…..

A babeh otter.

185 SusaninMI 10.23.09 at 6:44 pm

TELLLLLL US ALREADYYYYYYY!!! I say Basset, but I’m partial as they are the cutest dogs in the world, and this is one cute puppeh!!

186 Erica 10.23.09 at 6:46 pm

Bull terrier!

187 CathyDee 10.23.09 at 6:47 pm

Who cares?? He’s delicious-looking and bite sized, so I’m gonna nom him. Pass the butter!

188 btf 10.23.09 at 6:53 pm

looks like a clumber spaniel

189 Dash 10.23.09 at 6:55 pm

A wee Chihuahua?

190 Dash 10.23.09 at 6:55 pm

Or! A little Cocker Spaniel??

191 Cashew 10.23.09 at 6:56 pm

I’m going to go with New, as in:
“oh, s’cuse me, I’m new here”

192 Catherine 10.23.09 at 6:57 pm

I think he looks like an absolutely adorable mutt! The best ones.

193 Lexy 10.23.09 at 6:59 pm

it’s a catdog (all alone in the world) honestly if you look at his tocks you will find a squishy kitty face.

194 Queen of Dork 10.23.09 at 7:00 pm

*fingers crossed,eyes squished shut* I hope I win, I hope I win. Otter. It’s an otter.

195 Theresa 10.23.09 at 7:00 pm

Peanut! It’s a peanut!!

196 Queen of Dork 10.23.09 at 7:02 pm

Salted in the shell!

197 Hedge 10.23.09 at 7:04 pm

I want to say it looks like a beagle or basset hound.

198 Lalaith 10.23.09 at 7:05 pm

Some kind of terrier…. Jack Russell maybe?

199 Gillian 10.23.09 at 7:05 pm

Looks like a tiny clumber spaniel to me. Or maybe a fuzzy potato.

200 AuntieMame 10.23.09 at 7:09 pm

A caramel sundae with a cherry on top!

201 Lexy 10.23.09 at 7:10 pm

it’s definitely some kind of cartoon dog… maybe a great dane like the great scooby doo or a umm mutt like mutley?

202 Snorkie 10.23.09 at 7:11 pm

Catalburun

203 Queen of Dork 10.23.09 at 7:11 pm

It’s for sure an otter. It will grow up to have whiskers, lay on its back in the water, and crack open shellfish with its shellfish-cracking-open-tool on its belly.

215 apotheosis 10.23.09 at 7:43 pm

Dutch Lop.

Killer rabbit of Caerbannog, ppl. Hints and all.

it’s a melting blob of neapolitan ice cream.
i can see, chocolate, vanilla AND strawberry!

does this mean, nobody’s got it right yet?
how can that be??

217 Sara 10.23.09 at 7:46 pm

Basset Hound!! Awwww-nerable regardless….

/snoogle

218 Queen of Dork 10.23.09 at 7:47 pm

Clearly, it’s an otter.

219 Resriechan 10.23.09 at 7:49 pm

(One by one, entire crowd slowly begins to head over to the bonfire, beside the junkyard, to roast s’mores.)

220 Sara 10.23.09 at 7:51 pm

I vote miniature dachshund! Mine had a wrinkly schnozzle when she was teeny tiny

221 Beth 10.23.09 at 7:51 pm

Dachshund!?

222 Queen of Dork 10.23.09 at 7:53 pm

Maybe I should just buy the calendar. I’ve always wanted one…

223 Ida 10.23.09 at 7:53 pm

He’s a Boxer Baby !

224 spb 10.23.09 at 7:54 pm

No, no, no. It’s a lump of butter. You can tell by the pixals. Yummy butter, mind you, but butter.

[Butter is BY DEFINITION yummy. - Ed.]

225 chococat 10.23.09 at 7:54 pm

French Brittany pointer..

226 Queen of Dork 10.23.09 at 7:54 pm

Lexy: Scooby was a Great Dane?!

227 spb 10.23.09 at 7:55 pm

I bet they’re not going to tell us for, like a month and a half, just to mess with our heads. ;)

228 chococat 10.23.09 at 7:55 pm

American Brittany pointer?

229 spb 10.23.09 at 7:56 pm

Ok, ok… seriously, I know nothing (well very little) about dog breeds, but the first thing I thought of was Cavalier King Charles.

230 blargh 10.23.09 at 7:58 pm

Obviously this a Scottish breed, the “Highland Futt-Bugly”

[BFFFTTHahaha - Ed.]

231 Quincy 10.23.09 at 7:58 pm

Caucasian Ovtcharka/Shepherd. Yeah, I have no clue, but that was the kind of dog I had growing up.

232 Laura 10.23.09 at 7:58 pm

BLOODHOUND! That’s my guess. :)

233 spb 10.23.09 at 7:59 pm

Quincy grew up with a Ovtcharka??

234 Resriechan 10.23.09 at 8:01 pm

What if we guess that it’s a Mutt…They can’t poss. argue w/ that; it allows for any breed to be partially correct.

235 Resriechan 10.23.09 at 8:02 pm

(or just give the calendar to QofD, just for sheer determination & stream o’ consciousness efforts…)

236 Alexandra 10.23.09 at 8:06 pm

I think it’s a pitbull. Very cutes !

237 doghousediva 10.23.09 at 8:06 pm

it’s a heinz 57…

238 clarence 10.23.09 at 8:07 pm

It will not grow up cos that is without a doubt one of my bathroom sandals. I was looking for it the other night. Who stole it from me?!

239 Wordgirl 10.23.09 at 8:08 pm

@ QofD: Yes, Scooby is a Great Dane. You can see him up close and personal in “Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back.” This little sweetie pie, I believe, isn’t one.

240 Erin 10.23.09 at 8:13 pm

st. bernard?

241 mumster 10.23.09 at 8:14 pm

o m g! i love you!!!

242 Gailllc 10.23.09 at 8:14 pm

@ Gillian: nope, cannot be a fuzzy potato… that’s what lazy guinea piggies are called. Hmmmm…. is it a guinea pig???

243 mumster 10.23.09 at 8:15 pm

I don’t care! i still love you!!!

244 Queen of Dork 10.23.09 at 8:17 pm

Clarence: I bet Scooby the Mighty Great Dane stole it from you and gave it to Capybara.

245 Queen of Dork 10.23.09 at 8:17 pm

or Scrappy

246 Sarfitb 10.23.09 at 8:20 pm

From the shape of his cute little face, ear shape, and color/spot configuration….. I would guess that he will grow up to be a Saint Bernard! The ultimate irony of nature that something so cute and small could grow into something so big, slightly less cute (IMHO), and slobbery.

247 Resriechan 10.23.09 at 8:20 pm

ok. I’ve figured out, where I’ve seen *that* kind of snout, before.

It’s an Albino Mole Rat. Where’s Vanna, w/ my calendar?

248 Queen of Dork 10.23.09 at 8:23 pm

Wait. I have a question and I hope somebunny can answer it. What was the name of the guy in the Scooby cartoon who was Scooby’s best friend? You know, the scruffy guy in the green T-shirt who Scooby was always jumping on when he was scared? What the heck was his name?! That wasn’t Scrappy. Scrappy was the puppy, right? Who was that green T-shirt guy? Help me! I can’t think of his name!!!

249 Gailllc 10.23.09 at 8:25 pm

I know! I know! Shaggy

250 Queen of Dork 10.23.09 at 8:29 pm

THANK YOU!!!!

*Charlie Brown rolling head over heels after Lucy yells at him*

Man, pant, pant. That was driving me nuts. I’m wiping sweat beads of my forehead now.

251 Mary Ann Clem 10.23.09 at 8:37 pm

Otter hound?

252 robin 10.23.09 at 8:38 pm

Borzoi?

253 Queen of Dork 10.23.09 at 8:40 pm

Shaggy?

254 ChrisW 10.23.09 at 8:42 pm

Petit basset griffon vendeen

255 janet2buns 10.23.09 at 8:42 pm

Well, it’s not a behbeh bunneh because bunneh’s ears don’t go “flop” until they’re a little older. All new bunnehs are uppy eared.

256 Kathleen L. 10.23.09 at 8:43 pm

Pekingese?

257 Queen of Dork 10.23.09 at 8:45 pm

A shaggy looking otter?

258 Betty 10.23.09 at 8:48 pm

a saint bernard?

259 Queen of Dork 10.23.09 at 8:52 pm

I have to go make a sammich. A nomlet and shag and bacon sammich. And then bed. I’m making no sense even to myself. Which is unusual. Most of the time.

(It’s probably an otter. Or a seal of some sort. Maybe a turtle)

goodnite Moon.

[...did somebody say "shag" ?? - Ed.]

260 ChrisW 10.23.09 at 8:59 pm

Clumber spaniel

261 Illise 10.23.09 at 9:04 pm

I have to say a basset hound, but its a tough one, i think now the babies rule aplies for some puppies lol

262 Katey 10.23.09 at 9:07 pm

Waaait wasn’t this already solved? It’s a Welsh Corgi, riiiiiiiiight?

263 calzz 10.23.09 at 9:12 pm

basset hound

264 Queen of Dork 10.23.09 at 9:13 pm

Or a loaf of wheat bread. Okay. bed.

265 Melinda 10.23.09 at 9:22 pm

American Springer Spaniel?

266 mary 10.23.09 at 9:25 pm

English bulldog

267 Nancy 10.23.09 at 9:26 pm

I think it’s a rabbit hybrid.

268 Amy 10.23.09 at 9:27 pm

Beagle

269 Babbers 10.23.09 at 9:29 pm

My guess is Australian Cattle Dog….
or Cute Little Porker Dog! :D

270 Bernie 10.23.09 at 9:31 pm

A snorgolicious Mutt! Maybe? Answer soon cuz I need to know!

271 victoreia 10.23.09 at 9:40 pm

No, no, no. It’s clearly an oddly-shaped pillow disguised as a puppeh!

272 sauzacash 10.23.09 at 9:44 pm

I agree with those who say Clumber Spaniel. I really think that what this cute baby is…besides just being cute.

273 Karebear 10.23.09 at 9:48 pm

I know I’m not the first guess at this one, but I’m going with St. Bernard

274 Aundrea 10.23.09 at 9:52 pm

Is it a Labradoodle?
That pink nosie is throwing me off!

275 Tuxlux 10.23.09 at 9:54 pm

Labradoodle?

276 Aundrea 10.23.09 at 9:56 pm

It’s a real thing…I’m not crazy…

277 Nymavar 10.23.09 at 10:06 pm

golden retriever

278 Ashton 10.23.09 at 10:07 pm

I vote Cavalier King Charles Spaniel.

279 victoreia 10.23.09 at 10:34 pm

[blinks] 278 comments? And not a nuffer among them? Wow! I are impressed…….

(Of course, the contest angle had nothing to do with it……)

280 Alx G 10.23.09 at 10:49 pm

Cumberland spaniel

281 Maggie 10.23.09 at 10:52 pm

Shar pei

282 meacu1pa 10.23.09 at 11:09 pm

It’s an American Brittany. (tries to be confident.) My blind rescue American Brittany is 1 year old today.

283 Lauren 10.23.09 at 11:10 pm

Rat Terrier.

284 Zizzle 10.23.09 at 11:33 pm

That is a bull terrier.

285 Brenna 10.23.09 at 11:41 pm

My guess is saluki, coz there’s no point guessing something anyone else have guessed so far…

286 Carolyn 10.23.09 at 11:42 pm

I give up. I lost my “periodic table of the puppies.”

287 Cakes 10.23.09 at 11:47 pm

Yay!! Finally a St. Bernard!

288 Robynt 10.23.09 at 11:59 pm

Don’t know the breed, but it has a snuggle-icious nose!

289 paige 10.24.09 at 12:01 am

i’m guessing sharpei.

290 Soda 10.24.09 at 12:10 am

I’m guessing Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever.

291 Audacious 10.24.09 at 12:11 am

i believe the bread is in the latin termanology :Adorabulous Nomulous in the Snorggleus genus.
and i’m totallyus fluentus in latin, um us.

292 Audacious 10.24.09 at 12:12 am

293 Sarah 10.24.09 at 12:21 am

Brittany?

294 China's Human 10.24.09 at 12:39 am

I’m thinking it is a St. Bernard and totally adorable!

295 Bipolar Wombat 10.24.09 at 12:51 am

Hmm.That adorable muzzlepowche reminds me of a French mastiff, but the coloring’s wrong. How about a catahoula cur (AKA catahoula leopard dog)?

296 Renren 10.24.09 at 12:53 am

A puppig! (puppeh piggy)

297 Sandra S. 10.24.09 at 1:14 am

Dudes, clearly it’s a sugar-beet.

298 Lulu 10.24.09 at 1:44 am

Well, I’ll go with Italian greyhound, since no one has said that (although they have said greyhound and whippet, which are pretty darn close!)

299 LINDA 10.24.09 at 1:57 am

A CLUMBER SPANIEL!

300 CYT 10.24.09 at 2:07 am

302 K.D. 10.24.09 at 2:11 am

303 annie 10.24.09 at 2:42 am

A doggyliciouspup of a dog ?

304 seeds 10.24.09 at 3:11 am

305 Katrina 10.24.09 at 4:01 am

This little morsel will be a big, fierce, Anatolian Shepherd in about 23 months. Grr.

306 kimblee 10.24.09 at 4:23 am

A Bull Terrier?

307 g-lo 10.24.09 at 4:26 am

308 Bada 10.24.09 at 4:30 am

Bull terrier.

309 Rachel 10.24.09 at 4:34 am

ENGLISH SETTER!!!

ahem. Ok…so maybe it’s not my most logical guess…i’m just a little partial to setters :P

310 ROBIN 10.24.09 at 4:46 am

Looks suspicously like my dachshund as a baby, lol….dachshund final answer:D

311 meggy 10.24.09 at 4:48 am

is it a lilac beagle?
(possibly with a bee-sting?)

312 meggy 10.24.09 at 4:50 am

no, no: my final guess is: a lilac or khaki beagle (no bee-sting)

313 ROBIN 10.24.09 at 4:53 am

A shitzu? *rubs “soochie” for good luck* :D

314 ROBIN 10.24.09 at 4:55 am

ok, one more guess, a sharpei?

315 meggy 10.24.09 at 4:56 am

I’m going with lilac beagle

316 Olivia 10.24.09 at 5:01 am

I say golden retriever. It looks like it has shaggy possibilities. :)

317 FabMax 10.24.09 at 5:03 am

I’m guessing a St. Bernhardt.

318 KittyMarthaPoo 10.24.09 at 5:07 am

I’m thinking totally some sort of Spaniel, due to the tan markings.

319 meggy 10.24.09 at 5:09 am

lilac beagle, but is it the 13 or 15 incher? Aaargh!

320 ROBIN 10.24.09 at 5:11 am

ok …i just have to keep trying…a sheepdog?

321 lori Martin 10.24.09 at 5:15 am

325 Alice Shortcake 10.24.09 at 5:30 am

I can’t shake the feeling that it’s made of marzipan.

326 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 5:32 am

Alice Shortcake: Well, the ears and nose, yes. Marzipan. The rest is a portion of cinammon toast.

327 Barbara Young 10.24.09 at 5:41 am

It’s a Brittany Spaniel!

I’m waiting for my calendar…….in the meantime, keep up the good work! Barb

WHEN THE HECK ARE WE GONNA FIND OUT THE RIGHT ANSWER?!?!?!? ITS DRIVIN ME NUTTIER THAN I ALREADY AM!

339 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 6:10 am

Sadly ,Peanuts mama: I think we’ll never know. (:

340 Kim K. 10.24.09 at 6:23 am

I believe this must be a blood hound!

341 Ashley Lessmann 10.24.09 at 6:25 am

Bedlington terrier?

342 indy1110 10.24.09 at 6:33 am

Australian Shepherd! :-D

343 Catherine 10.24.09 at 6:35 am

It looks like a terrior or maybe a border collie/labrador mix.

344 michelle boxall 10.24.09 at 6:36 am

348 heather 10.24.09 at 6:43 am

It’s a Canardly!! (cause you can’ardly tell by its looks!)

349 Terri Phipps 10.24.09 at 6:44 am

The puppy will be a Collie.

350 meggy 10.24.09 at 6:45 am

Looks like Snoopy with that big round snozzle. Call me a crazy doofus, but I think it must be beagle (lilac variety …15 in. ,.. possibly suffering from allergies)?

351 heather 10.24.09 at 6:46 am

ooooohhhhh – nobody said Cane Corso yet!!

352 Vicki 10.24.09 at 6:47 am

I’m going to go for one of the more obscure breeds: Dogue De Bordeaux

353 amy kelly 10.24.09 at 6:49 am

373 daisy1648 10.24.09 at 7:42 am

check out this website–scroll down–you’ll see that this is a baby cocker http://www.zimfamilycockers.com/JoannaMerlinPups2008.html
and no–I don’t know these people–I just did a google search for pics of baby cockers—-

374 Crystal Hilbert 10.24.09 at 7:45 am

I think he’s going to be a bull terrier. <3

375 Hope 10.24.09 at 7:45 am

I think it’s a Brittany Spaniel

376 Gigi 10.24.09 at 7:46 am

OK I will now put my nuffer hat on. I HATE practicle joke, you said a free calender for guessing the breed and then you don’t TELL US! I don’t care about the calender it’s just that not telling the right answer is just MEAN!!!! You’re a MEANY and I’m sure you have COOTIES! I’m taking back my ball and going home, so there!

[Patience, Gigi. It's the weekend. - Ed.]

377 Ellen 10.24.09 at 7:49 am

An Italian greyhound. They look just like that when they are in the larval stage.

378 Theresa 10.24.09 at 7:53 am

It is a peanut made out of marzipan.

379 Kapten Hanna 10.24.09 at 8:00 am

All my guesses have been taken, but I’m still gonna say English Cocker Spaniel or Clumber Spaniel…

380 PJ 10.24.09 at 8:02 am

It’s a Bee Sting, Mastiff mix.

381 Mary 10.24.09 at 8:08 am

daschund?

382 Sandra 10.24.09 at 8:11 am

Clearly, it’s a Luck Dragon (from Never-Ending Story).

383 Mockingbird81 10.24.09 at 8:14 am

I am guessing lhasa apso! :)

384 leemikcee 10.24.09 at 8:21 am

Brittany (Used to be “Brittany Spaniel” but the spaniel bit got dropped.)

385 Copperbat 10.24.09 at 8:23 am

@daisy1648: many breeds look nearly identical at the newborn stage. It’s really, really difficult to tell them apart. But small differences like ear size and coat length are already apparent.

It could be a spaniel, but I’m sticking with the Basset crowd. This morsel has some basset characteristics already developing.

386 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 8:24 am

It’s a marzipan ginger bread house.

387 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 8:25 am

(sprinkled with otter flavored cinnamon.)

388 kat 10.24.09 at 8:27 am

collie or beagle

389 Katrina 10.24.09 at 8:28 am

OK, so it will be a big, fierce Cocker Spaniel. Grr.

390 Mel 10.24.09 at 8:30 am

Australian Shepherd?

391 Catherine 10.24.09 at 8:34 am

Ok, this is getting cruel. Just tell us already!

392 kellie 10.24.09 at 8:35 am

new guinea singing dog .. i don’t know, really. i’ve always thought that breed name was funny. heheh and a very cute goggie too. :D

393 wwax 10.24.09 at 8:35 am

A Cavocker?

A Cavilier/King Charles Spaniel cross?

My mum has one of those. Most beautiful dog ever but I think her ears block the light to her brain. She is not the shinest penny in the box if you get my drift. But so sweet and friendly and loving you don’t mind that accidently dropping a piece of string on the ground makes her spend 10 minutes sniffing it and running away and back trying to figure out what it is and if its going to eat her. And she has the best toehawks ever!

@ queen of dork: otter flavored cinnamon .. wha? LOL!!!

395 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 8:37 am

kellie: Sometimes I don’t even understand myself.

396 Christi G 10.24.09 at 8:39 am

I guess aussie shepherd…..

397 andrea b. 10.24.09 at 8:40 am

Ok. I’m goin’ out on a limb here. King Charles Spaniel? Judging by smooshed snout and overall roundedness?

398 N. Fritz 10.24.09 at 8:43 am

I think the moderators just want us to reach 500 comments before the big reveal

(right Theo? Meg?)

399 Von Zeppelin 10.24.09 at 8:44 am

A Prussian Schweinhund (played by Erich von Stroheim in many films of the 1920s and 30s). You can tell by the roll of fat on the back of the neck. They don’t grow the monocle and the jackboots until later.

400 Peanutcat 10.24.09 at 8:45 am

I can’t think; I’m wantin’ to nibble on those widdle ears!

401 N. Fritz 10.24.09 at 8:49 am

after all, what’s the highest number of comments for one post?

(and I thought Molly was right at #2 with King Charles Cavalier Spaniel, which is why I haven’t chimed in before now!)

402 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 8:50 am

N. Fritz: Theo and Meg are still sleeping. (not together, they live in different dimensions and communicate via fax). They’ll be up in an hour or two and get back to us after they have had cereal with bananas in it and juice. Oh. But first they have to fight over who gets to keep the present in the cereal box. This is tricky, interdimensionally and all.

btw: It’s an otter.

403 Judy 10.24.09 at 8:51 am

Rats–I was going to guess pit bull, but too many other people have already used that. Can I just say it’s going to be a mutt? ;-)

404 Tara 10.24.09 at 8:52 am

*is laughing her tocks off*

The guesses here are a riot. After seeing HUNDREDS of puppies, …nope, I still don’t know.

Possibly an American Staffordshire Terrier (your pitbulls), or Staffordshire Bull Terrier (unfortunately, most people think of this dog as a Stafford crossed with a Bull Dog or Bull Terrier, but is actually the predecessor).

I’m going to say a red and white Bull Terrier.

405 N. Fritz 10.24.09 at 8:54 am

@QofD: I have one of those relationships too… you should see us fight when the prize is a Star Trek communicator!

406 Maca 10.24.09 at 8:54 am

pit bull. I know it’s too late, but I need to be reassured of things constantly.

407 amy kelly 10.24.09 at 8:59 am

No wait…Brittany/Golden Retriever mix?

408 Resriechan 10.24.09 at 8:59 am

@ all: G’morning/afternoon
@ QoD: there is an “Innie” in yer personal Email inbox ! (From moi)
@ Judy: certainly you can do so.

(but, unf., it’s “been done”. But then, just about everything else, including “pat of butter” & “Clydesdale” has also been done, so you’re in a crowd of nice, fluffy type folks…at least until they riot over NO NEW POSTS in 12 hours??????)

(was there a car wreck?And did it involve anyone from CO?)

409 amy kelly 10.24.09 at 9:04 am

And it’s not made out of marzipan…clearly the lil puddin’ is made out of a wonderful mixture of velvet and chenille. :)

410 Sha Sha 10.24.09 at 9:08 am

i’m thinking golden labrador retriever!

411 Katinka 10.24.09 at 9:10 am

Borzoi.

412 Kaekae 10.24.09 at 9:16 am

Brittany?

413 Von Zeppelin 10.24.09 at 9:21 am

CO fans, the time has come to TAKE MATTERS INTO OUR OWN HANDS!! The selfish imperialists who exploit us have been toying with us too long. Let the people themselves seize power and DECIDE ONCE AND FOR ALL what kind of puppy this is. Who is with me, comrades? DOWN WITH OUR OPPRESSORS! LET THE PROLETARIAT RISE! SHOES FOR INDUSTRY! (Lifts red banner, points dramatically at Winter Palace. Looks around and sees no one is following. Puts down banner and goes off for a soothing cup of tea)

414 laura 10.24.09 at 9:21 am

Shar-pei
I think someone already got it. FOREHEAD WRINKLES ^_^

415 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 9:25 am

N. Fritz: I have one of those communicators and enjoy beaming myself to and from work every day. Just kidding. I WISH!

Resriechan. Please. Be careful of the werewolf.

416 Birdcage 10.24.09 at 9:26 am

I just scrolled through 413 entries hoping they’d posted the answer. For the record, my vote is basset hound. And by the way, I am making osso buco for dinner, with risotto. You are all invited. Bring your pets.

417 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 9:27 am

Von Zep: Put down that tea, pick up that banner and get your butt back over here!!! We must UNITE!!!

418 emmberrann 10.24.09 at 9:28 am

Whatever, It is, It is deeleeshussss! Could it be a baby sibling for Knute, the polar bear? His baby nose was approx. the same shape as this yummer puppers. Awww, cmon folks! What kind already. The sus—pense is killing us softly!

419 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 9:28 am

(I said that last bit through a loud speaker) I feel like I’m in that Sally Field movie, Norma Ray. UNION!!!

420 Olivia Charwood 10.24.09 at 9:30 am

Bull Terrier? smooshed nose…

421 Kathy Bartlette 10.24.09 at 9:33 am

A Springer Spaniel?

422 fake name 10.24.09 at 9:34 am

I was going to guess Bull Terrier too, but two people got there before me. :O

423 Von Zeppelin 10.24.09 at 9:35 am

OK, Queen of Dork. (takes final sip of tea, picks up red banner). Back to the People’s Revolution. CAST OFF THE SHACKLES THAT HAVE BOUND US TOO LONG, COMRADES!! DOWN WITH THE CORRUPT ARISTOCRACY!! (bellows additional stirring revolutionary sentiments).

By the way, speaking of the aristocracy, do you think “Queen” is a proper title for a rabblerouser? Maybe you should be “Leading Female Skilled Industrial Worker of Dork.”

424 kittyadventures 10.24.09 at 9:36 am

@ Von Z and Qof D LOLOL grabs banner and joins hordes of Peeps Marching to the Bunny tea Cafe in Japan.

425 Sue 10.24.09 at 9:37 am

From the looks of the ears. It looks more like a baby goat.

426 T.U.M. 10.24.09 at 9:39 am

I vote Beagle.

427 Marilyn 10.24.09 at 9:41 am

A English Cocker is my best guess.

428 kittyadventures 10.24.09 at 9:41 am

Starts chanting in time to marching
Puppies
Puppies
we want Puppies

Soo cute
and Fun
rolly polly fluffy ones

Big ones
little ones
all kinds tons and tons

429 Abby 10.24.09 at 9:45 am

trick question – Mutt!

430 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 9:46 am

Von Zep: I really cannot help the “Queen” thing. I’m not aristocracy. (pant…pant…good Lord…that was hard for me to even spell.) It’s just a name my daughter gave me because I’m really dorky. On to the resistance!!!!

431 LittlePixelPrincess 10.24.09 at 9:49 am

Didn’t Theo imply there was a winner back at comment 68-70, or am I not reading him correctly?

432 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 9:52 am

We can never tell what Teho will or will not do.

[I think you can safely depend upon me to do the Humpty Hump y'all - Ed.]

433 Laurie 10.24.09 at 10:02 am

Welsh Springer Spaniel?

434 Courtney 10.24.09 at 10:07 am

Pyranese?

435 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 10:10 am

Theo: That was really strange. (and lovely!) Do you have the Monster Mash somewhere? It is, afterall, almost HALLOWEEN! scaaarrryy. I think we should all dress up and go trick-or-treating!

436 Wiggs 10.24.09 at 10:11 am

I say a Cavalier King Charles spaniel…but I’m sure it’s already been suggested.

437 Shadyman 10.24.09 at 10:12 am

Tabby!

Oh wait…

438 MadameX 10.24.09 at 10:13 am

Allons enfants de la patrie….!!!

Oops. Wrong revolution.

And whatever breed of pup it is, I still think it’s made of lemon meringue…

439 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 10:15 am

MadameX: Key Lime. Yum. Crust. It’s all about the crust.

440 A. Marie 10.24.09 at 10:16 am

Brittany Spaniel??

441 Margie 10.24.09 at 10:17 am

Brittany Spaniel

442 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 10:18 am

Okay. I’ll start. I’ll dress up as Metz’s plumber. Or this potao thing. Next?!

443 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 10:19 am

Oops! I meant potato

444 MadameX 10.24.09 at 10:21 am

The crust. And the meringue. Tall and fluffy mounds of gold-tipped meringue covering the sweet/tart filling…

Heck, now I’m slobbering like a St. Bernard!

445 Tree 10.24.09 at 10:23 am

Shar pei!!!

446 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 10:25 am

MadameX will join the Halloween party dressed as a meringue pie. Very good. Resriechan?

447 MadameX 10.24.09 at 10:35 am

Awwwww! It is a Basset Hound!!!

When I was a kid my aunt and uncle had a basset – his name was “Taboo” and he was had the sweetest, deepest “barooo?” ever!!!

QofD, I’d be honored to joint the Halloween Party attired as a lemon meringue pie. Should I bring anything? A dip, crackers, a pie? Tequila, perhaps?

448 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 10:40 am

MadameX: Yes!

449 almostphony 10.24.09 at 10:46 am

is it a lil baby catahoula leopard dog? it looks a lot like a baby pibble to me. a red-nose pit. gaaawwww

450 Theresa 10.24.09 at 10:46 am

VonZep, I would be forced to finger my pearls, peer through my lorgnette, and say “Well, I never!”

451 Von Zeppelin 10.24.09 at 10:47 am

QoD, I’d really like to come to the party wearing my full-scale costume of the Graf Zeppelin. It’s 776 feet long and 100 feet high–will there be room in your den? I’ll bring Ruffles (with rrrridges) and beer.

452 Jaclyn 10.24.09 at 10:51 am

Aha! I KNEW it was a basset, but about 10 gazillion people had already said it before I got here. The wrinkly face, the itty bitty ears that haven’t grown out yet … snorgliciousness! (BTW, to be a pedantic nerd: not lemon and white. The red and white will darken as the sweetie gets older. “True” lemon is basically white at birth, best I understand.)

Want more basset buppy pics? Go check out Ozark Mountain Basset Resuce:
http://www.ombr.org/
(And that’s an expensive litter, too, so if those interested and able would please notice the Paypal button on the left hand side… thanks! And I am not affiliated with this particular rescue.)

453 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 11:00 am

Von Zep: Ruffles and beer…bring. It won’t fit it my house but for sure in my back yard. Peeps. Check this out. I just went to the store and the two ladies behind the counter were discussing soy v cow milk. The one didn’t want to put soy milk in her coffee. And I was like “soy or cow? it’s just clouds in your coffee.” Which made me think, hey, clouds in your coffee? someone sang that. So then I was all, “Carly Simon sang that in a song!” so then we’re all, which song? And I’m like, “YOU’RE SO VAIN!!1″ What a fun corner store I have, huh?

454 JohnnieCanuck 10.24.09 at 11:26 am

QoD:
Thanks for replacing the clouds in my head with your earworm!

455 Resriechan 10.24.09 at 11:27 am

1: @ QoD: yeah, I’m in, on the Revolution — but, as is generally the case, I’m LATE!!!
2: Yes, Theo — or maybe it was a Commenter/ Poster-Person …SOMEBODY provided the Monster Mash thing on some fairly recent CO comment stream (perhaps it was that Halcyon Day, when everybody grooved on the Billy Preston song “Nothing from nothing” (AND the legendary 2-foot Afro)…. (which then got into the Backstory about his earlier days as one of several “Fifth Beatle” people, at the time of “Let it Be” & “Hey Jude”)……
okay. now I wanna go back up, to the song that Theo loaded, above.

No — WAIT !!! Does this mean, that the picture in the contest ISN’T an otter, after all & QoD doesn’t win her own calendar?????

OK, VZ, I request that we vote among our Revolutionary Constituency, that our new purpose be, to ensure that QoD be awarded a second, HONORARY calendar, for imaginative suggestions & sheer force of her own Cuteness. Is everybody in???

456 Resriechan 10.24.09 at 11:30 am

And @ Theresa: If I can be of any assistance w/ your pearl-fingering (no dirty jokes here, now, you younger whipper-snappers !!) or your lorgnette, please let me know. While my knowledge of Dante did drop a cylinder over under the Wombat, I am rumored to be Fairly Fluent en Francais (actually get fairly surprisingly frequent compliments….those folks must be Canadians, or something?)

457 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 11:33 am

Johnnie: I hate to be so “out of the loop” but really, what the heck does “earworm” mean? Also, what does “Blog” actually mean? Where does that word “Blog” come from and what does it mean??!! It sounds like a description of a huge seal flopping around on a rock or something, with all it’s majestic blubber. What is Blog?!!

458 blair 10.24.09 at 11:33 am

He’s clearly a snuzzlepops. Or a pyrenean wooper-boy. Or a morselhound. Sokay. I already has a 2010 C.O. calendar.

459 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 11:37 am

Blair: Seriously? How did you get it? I would be sooooo scared to put my debit card number on here. Is there a phone number to call instead? I WANT THAT CALENDAR!!!

460 Von Zeppelin 10.24.09 at 11:38 am

QoD: “Blog”–a common abbreviation of Web Log, a website in which one shares one’s opinions, thoughts, plagiarized poetry, and cat pictures with the great world out there.
Also, I think, a Silver Age Marvel Comics villain from the Eighth Dimension. “The Fantastic Four Battle Blog the Unconquerable to the Death! Will Earth Survive?”

461 peacelovekarma 10.24.09 at 11:41 am

so cute!! :-)

462 blair 10.24.09 at 11:45 am

Amazon is practically ten-dollaring them away and has been for a month or so:

http://www.amazon.com/Cute-Overload-Page-Day-Calendar/dp/0761153101/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1256409542&sr=8-1

Okay, my last guess: he’s a Cute Overloadoodle.

463 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 11:50 am

Well. Okay, Von Zep. But I just wondered why it was called a Blog. I knew what it meant but why is it called necessarily, Blog? I just thought maybe the letters B.L.O.G. like, stood for something. But I guess we could have called it
‘Bunn’ if anyone had thought to do so, right? Not trying to be stupa, just trying to get a handle on the cyber world. *love* *and excuse my stupaness*

464 Meg 10.24.09 at 11:51 am

Hot damn, People, nice work on all the guesses…

Muffy! I just got your email, you WINNER, you!

Expect both a wall calendar AND a desk calendar coming your way!

465 Resriechan 10.24.09 at 11:52 am

yay Muffie yay Meg.

466 muffy 10.24.09 at 11:57 am

Squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

I’m glad there were no witnesses because I just did a hoppy skippy dance of joy.

Hooray for basset hounds!

467 Resriechan 10.24.09 at 11:58 am

QoD: now that the furor over the breed & calendar & wombat have all at least halfway reached resolution (REV-olution? VZ?? Do we have a total on the vote?)

I’m gonna retire from computerland for the rest of my day & ponder on the brilliance of the flat-faced Floogy Chopsticks Kitty (sorry Winston — the cat, Winston, not the human commenter-biped one — for my disloyalty) ….

Btw, The song that The Theo provided above, is actually pretty keen . Two related Questions: Are we who are non-urban, Caucasian Humans, allowed to enjoy a song of That Type? And do they allow that song in Minne-SOOOO-ta????

468 Resriechan 10.24.09 at 11:58 am

(oops I meant to say “MuffY”, of course. **blush**)

469 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 11:59 am

So. CO Overlords. What the heck is it?! We all want to know.

470 DogEared 10.24.09 at 12:01 pm

yay to Muffy! congrats…you will LOVE your calendars (i got the wall size). As for the pupmorsel pic and all the comments..YAY AGAIN! i love it here….

@QofD : may i please come to your party as a rain-soaked-dog-walker….? as i am now dressed appropriately, thankyouverymuch Mother Nature……

471 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 12:02 pm

Meg? Wow. I’m humbled in your glorious blonde presence!

472 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 12:09 pm

But. (he-he) I’m too lazy to scroll up through allll of that to find out what the breed was. Meg? Could you please just say what it was? (if not. I’ll start scrolling) Or ask the peeps!

DogEared: Of course! You may come to the Halloween Party as whatever you want. It’s at my house. refreshments provided. And they’re yummy. (and scary).

473 Resriechan 10.24.09 at 12:22 pm

@ QoD: it did say..but ye’re right c’est difficile a scroller Uuuuuuuup & Dooooooown to Meg’s Note at the Head of the page …but also Muffy re-commented “hooray for Basset Hounds” !!!

thereunto & derivative, thereof appertainin’, ergo, etc.:

BASSET HOUND. Hoorah for Schnozzes, Meg, Muffy, BH’s & (IMHO) Wombats.

(now, let’s just hope we don’t have to hold a contest on choosing a name for the little guy/gal)

474 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 12:26 pm

Resriechan: You crack me up! I’m going to order Chinese take-away for all of us now for our Halloween Party.

475 Resriechan 10.24.09 at 12:36 pm

(glad I have that effect on someone !! I’ll bring along a package of Cinch-saks, to the Party, to help with the cleanup, tomorrow. VonZeppelin didn’t say whether her costume (the Zeppelin) is a disposable one or not, so cleanup *COULD* be a significant task)

BFN — Back to “my little room” (Paul Simon song, I think….)

476 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 1:00 pm

Is Von Zeppelin a guy or a girl?

[Let's take a Scientific Wild-Ass Guess... - Ed.]

By the way: Food’s here. Let’s party!!

477 Theresa 10.24.09 at 2:26 pm

Yikes!! The Humpty-Dance!!!! Time had almost managed to wash that one out of my brain.

478 Theresa 10.24.09 at 2:28 pm

@Resriechan, you must know of course, that Prince is from Minnesooota, so that sets the bar high for funkiness. :mrgreen:

479 Genevia Pirtle 10.24.09 at 2:30 pm

Look’s like a Daschund baby to me…

480 Jayne 10.24.09 at 2:50 pm

Bullmastiff!

481 ultrapeanut 10.24.09 at 3:07 pm

my vote is: a miniature bull terrier!!

482 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 3:07 pm

Ed: Weeellll, I thought a guy myself but he was referred to as the female side in a comment and you all have known each other for so long soo…I didn’t know… Anyway, sick and back to bed. :)

[Heh. Maybe it seems that way, but we've never met. Heck, I've never even met Meg or the rest of the Cute Overload staff. - Ed.]

483 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 3:12 pm

Say Whhhhaaaattttt?!!!!

484 Von Zeppelin 10.24.09 at 3:33 pm

Resriechan and QoD–Permit me to state, for the record, that I am male. (signs notarized affidavit). Of course, with internet obscurity being what it is, I MIGHT be lying. I could be a woman. I could be transgendered. I could be a Sumatran fruit bat. I could be an Unholy Being from the Dreaded Realms of the Dead.

I’m pretty sure I’m male, though.

485 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 3:36 pm

Von Zep: I thought you were a male. Or a Sumatran fruit bat.. Or an Unholy Being from the Dreaded Realms of the Dead.

PS I have been to the Dreaded Realms of the Dead. It’s not a very pleasant vacation spot and I wouldn’t recommend it.

486 Von Zeppelin 10.24.09 at 3:47 pm

QoD, I agree that the Dreaded Realms of the Dead aren’t as good as the tourist websites make them sound. Worst thing: no venues offering live music.

487 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 3:49 pm

And the nomading zombies. Good grief.

488 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 3:51 pm

(They were NOT disclosed in the brochure. I’m STILL trying to get my money back from that vacation).

489 Trin 10.24.09 at 4:36 pm

Australian Shepherd

490 Liz Condos 10.24.09 at 5:04 pm

Old English Bulldog

491 (Leave Your Fake Name Here) 10.24.09 at 5:25 pm

I’m surprised no one has said Papillon yet. What if it’s ears aren’t perked up yet? =\

492 Nicky423 10.24.09 at 5:25 pm

Bull Terrier is my guess. Not a bulldog. Bulldog puppies are way cuter!

493 antimony 10.24.09 at 5:33 pm

A rabbit. If I had to guess the breed, I’d guess a giant sequoia rabbit.

494 wrath 10.24.09 at 5:41 pm

Jindo!!

495 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 6:26 pm

Okay. I’ll try to be the first ever to hit 500. (five hundred and eleventy twelve or something) Do I get a prize?

496 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 6:27 pm

four more to go

497 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 6:28 pm

The human clock is neat. I’m trying for this.

498 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 6:29 pm

Taaa Dahhhh!

499 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 6:29 pm

Yay

500 judith 10.24.09 at 6:33 pm

English Bull Terrier

501 JB 10.24.09 at 6:46 pm

An English Setter, perhaps?

502 Debra D 10.24.09 at 7:43 pm

Oh myyy word… I come back from a total Windows Vista meltdown, and I see THIS!!
The comments had me gigglesnorting!!

I’m glad everyone had so much fun :)

503 Resriechan 10.24.09 at 8:20 pm

Ok, so, to sum up: the picture that BEGAN this set of commentary, “Guess the Breed” is a picture, of a Sumatran Fruit Bat.

Wow. Wouldn’ta guessed THAT one.

And @ Theresa: Yet again, you amaze me. I thought that all yer knowledge was re. litt’ratuuuuuuure & knowledgeable Archive-y stuff. I wasn’t aware, that you had done a Minor in Funkology, too!!! And I did know that His Funky Highness was from an area supposedly bland & farm-y but not that he was FROM Minnnesoooooooota, specifically? wow. There is SO MUCH that I do not know.

I think I”m gonna register for Kindergarten first thing Monday morning.
Obvy, the first round of coursework either didn’t take…..or
*Everything in the Known Universe has Entirely Changed* since I was in School lo (these many 3000 years ago).

@ QoD: In re Otterz — please see **lots of stuff** under the CO Glossary (see the top of this page; open out on “Glossary”, find the “O” section) & click on several blue items there which say Otters !!! My Halloween gift to your day Sunday!

(PS @ Ed: I’m really struggling with your statement, that you haven’t actually met The Meg. Aren’t you both located in The CuteOverload Office of Heaven???? I don’t INTEND to be argumentative; but wha’ you said doesn’t seem possible………)

[Meg & Sparky are in San Fran, Mike's in San Diego (I think), Prongs is... you know, I haven't actually asked. (Prongs? Elucidation?) ...but me, I'm in the Twin Cities, Minnesota, Upper Midwest, USA; it's a bit of a hike out to the left coast. - Ed.]

504 Resriechan 10.24.09 at 8:24 pm

PS: will all so willing, please send “healthy” & “relaxed” vibes to The Queen
(in Las V, NV)….evidently a Plague has attacked her & made her weekend off into somewhat of a bummer. Positive vibes, guyz/galz, yo?

Ohhhhhhhhmmmmmmmm……….

505 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 8:31 pm

Resriechan: Thanks. Not good over here. Feeling really ill. But cute animals really help as do your beautiful wishes and things. Back to bed.

506 Bird 10.24.09 at 9:24 pm

with the schnoz poofiness & wrinkle, got to be sharpei!

507 Resriechan 10.24.09 at 10:58 pm

@ Ed: thanks for the elucidation, info & such in response to item in # 504.

(Get Smart Agent Voice: ) “Would you beleeeeeeeev???”
that I’m actually printing a little item about that for my CuteOv. Archival Folder?

(I know, I’m quite silly that way. But, at least I’m not a drug addict or a bank robber.)

508 Resriechan 10.24.09 at 11:01 pm

OMG I just realized that I let something actually potentially offensive into my thinggie there. I apologize deeply. Please, Ed., if you feel charitable & indulgent, remove the first of the two items after “at least I’m not …

THAT was my worst interpersonal type gaffe ever I think. Oh jeez I really feel like an insensitive clod. Please do forgive. Entirely serious here.

[What? I'm not seeing a problem... :? - Ed.]

509 Pitas for Rita 10.24.09 at 11:10 pm

Brittany Spaniel was my immediate thought, I had one when I was little. You don’t see them out west very often. I miss you HUGGIE! She passed right before my HS Grad almost 20 years ago and yet I still get teary eyed when I see my daughter’s friend’s Brittany. *softly sobbing in the corner until I regain my composure* The McPupperson sure looks like a Brit. Is she/he up for adoption and if so could I put a bid in first? Or maybe just rent her/him out for snorgles every so often? Please?

510 Debra D 10.24.09 at 11:20 pm

Heh Pita, no he’s very happy in his owners home. I sent in some other pics, so hopefully you guys will get to see more of the pure KYOOOT that were my Basset Babies :)

511 Queen of Dork 10.24.09 at 11:27 pm

I would buy a calendar but I don’t really trust that this site is reeeaallllyy secure. I have gone on that Cute chat thing and have words I type all screwed up and made crazy. I wish there was a number I could call to send a check.

[We don't sell stuff directly, y'know; that's all handled through established & reputable e-tailers like Amazon who've been doing this stuff for years. Cute Overload is neither a warehouse nor a gift shop, though I may think "more's the pity" with some regularity. My point is, you're money's safe with other people. ;) Also, the Meebo chat room is completely separate & nothing to do with sales. - Ed.]

[...Oh wait, no, you're talking about the forum, aren't you? CuteTalk? Yeah, the mods there have a really bizarre word auto-replacement system in effect; it was originally intended for profanity, but it gets used for silliness. Truth be told, it drives me nuts too, though they assure me it's something you get used to. And again, that place is ENTIRELY separate, not officially a Cute Overload endeavor (it's a fansite, see) and it has nothing to do with credit-card-related stuff. - Ed.]

512 Pitas for Rita 10.24.09 at 11:27 pm

I would LUVS the KYOOOT in my house. I like Bassets, but can’t stand the drool, lol. We had family here that had 2 Bassies and it was insane just trying to keep the couch dry. Oh wells. I guess I’ll just have to snorgles the pups I have then. Anyone interested in the pups that my TROLLOP of an 8 month old pup manged to get preggo with? We did everthing we could to restrain her, but apparently concrete block wall isn’t enough when you have a 4 lb dog that wants to mate. She’s a Yoranian (Yorkie/Pom mix) and her PLAYER of a Beau seems to be the Cocker Spaniel down the street. Emphasis on the first four letters of his breed. Oh well, I guess I will just have to post pics and see if anyone can guess THEIR BREED! :D

513 Resriechan 10.24.09 at 11:39 pm

Hey QoD: I thought you said you were goin’ to bed to get Rest & Recuperate from the Cursed Disease????
I sent you one last email to yer personal. Heck, I’ll buy you a CO calendar myself & mail it to ya with your Holidays Greetings card, ok? (as long as the retailer hasn’t run out of them, by the time I can get my own measly $15 to them; I’ll try, anyhow!)

514 Krizzta 10.24.09 at 11:45 pm

I think this is a french bulldog or maybe a boston terrier pup.:)

515 Resriechan 10.24.09 at 11:45 pm

@ Pitasfor….

I definitely can entirely relate to your loss. My deepest condolences to you. Our family had one dog, a Brittany Spaniel….an awesome, amazing & phenomenal person in fur. We were 5 kids; mom was trying to raise all of us. Dad was away flying Navy jets off aircraft carriers in the Pacific for 3 months at a time across many many years in a long career.
When Skipper finally had deteriorated to the point when his Quality of Life was not good, our loving vet suggested that his days of enjoying his Life on Earth were past; so we followed his suggestion that Skipper would be happiest to be released from this life. The only moment I ever saw my dad Captn D. P. Thomas even come close to tears. And my mom said firmly & has kept this statement, that there would never be another pet in her house.
We used to lay down, three of us together, with our heads using his side as our pillow, to watch the Wizard of Oz when it came on TV every year.

RIP Captain Donald Patrick Thomas, USN (of Parkinson’s Disease, yr 2000)
RIP, Skipper.

516 Resriechan 10.24.09 at 11:46 pm

@ QoD: I didn’t mean to sound rude or to insist that you were going to bed; I was just surprised to see a post from you here, since your email mentioned going to bed. Sorry if I was rude — unintended. I’m so klutzy.

517 Pitas for Rita 10.25.09 at 12:03 am

@Resriechan Doesn’t it just suck rocks when you see your animal deteriorate before your eyes? I had the same thing. I kept praying she’d get better, but I was kidding myself. I wish there were more we could do for our Canine/Feline/Equine and any other -Ine species. I miss my doggie. It’s as simple as that. Doesn’t matter how long it’s been, a friend is a friend and you always miss them. Thanks for the support. We are trying to get our kids ready for the time when our oldest dog passes, because it could be anytime, really. We adopted her from the Humane Society 7 years ago and she supposedly was 7 then… Her sister that we adopted with her had to be put down already and I can’t imagine being without her Grumpy Old Grandma-ness in our lives. Ergo: new TROLLOP pup to help cover gap when the oldest passes. It really sucks to be a grown up sometimes. I have to say though, as far as blogs and forums go, this is by far THE NICEST one that I have ever posted in. Everyone is so considerate! Or is that just the Saturday night buzz making people happy? Inquiring minds… :)

518 Resriechan 10.25.09 at 12:23 am

@ Pitas: I just awhile ago, read up to your part about your 8-month old still a puppy wanting to become a group !!!! Wow!! Cement blocks??? THAT’s determination!!! At first, I thought “Trollop” was a strong term, but after reading that part, I can kinda see where ye’re coming from !! Ya just can’t raise kids these days, ya know?

Yeah, I still miss Skipper; that’s for sure; and he died several years, before my dad died.

Re. CO: it’s really a groovy bunch o’ coconuts, here. Occ, peeps do get the proverbial panties in the proverbial wad …but even there, generally it just deteriorates into a fairly well-spoken indignation without calling each other names like hamster & elderberry. Ya gotta have a pretty solid background of Monty Python & usually a fairly well-read school background, to keep up with things getting sidetracked into the fun stuff. You don’t have to actually be able to QUOTE literature (at least not ALWAYS) but it sure does help to have a set of Cliff’s Notes around. Oh, and a pretty diverse set of Popular Music references, as well. Earlier today the Ed was linking to the Humpty Dance from 1980; the other day we were on Prince & Raspberry Beret; other days we get all into the particular differences btw Peter Paul/ Mary & Pete Seeger…or the extra studio musicians for the Beatles’ albums….so be prepared to go off into the Internet to research a reference point sometimes…then the jokes are even more fun.

Oh — Point to your advantage in keeping afloat, here. Go up to the letterhead (top of the page) and open up the CO Glossary. Look all through there. Including when you see items in blue there, open THOSE up, too for specific bits. That alone will keep ya busy for 30 minutes or so!!

Peace. Goin to bed, myself, now !!

519 Resriechan 10.25.09 at 12:25 am

oops Humpty Dance/ 1989 NOT 1980. My bad, as “they say”

520 Pitas for Rita 10.25.09 at 10:25 am

@Resriechan : You mean THIS Humpty Dance?
All right!
Stop whatcha doin’
’cause I’m about to ruin
the image and the style that ya used to.
I look funny
but yo I’m makin’ money see
so yo world I hope you’re ready for me.
Now gather round
I’m the new fool in town
and my sound’s laid down by the Underground.
I drink up all the Hennessey ya got on ya shelf
so just let me introduce myself
My name is Humpty, pronounced with a Umpty.
Yo ladies, oh how I like to hump thee.
And all the rappers in the top ten–please allow me to bump thee.
I’m steppin’ tall, y’all,
and just like Humpty Dumpty
you’re gonna fall when the stereos pump me.
I like to rhyme,
I like my beats funky,
I’m spunky. I like my oatmeal lumpy.
I’m sick wit dis, straight gangsta mack
but sometimes I get ridiculous
I’ll eat up all your crackers and your licorice
hey yo fat girl, c’mere–are ya ticklish?
Yeah, I called ya fat.
Look at me, I’m skinny
It never stopped me from gettin’ busy
I’m a freak
I like the girls with the boom
I once got busy in a Burger King bathroom
I’m crazy.
Allow me to amaze thee.
They say I’m ugly but it just don’t faze me.
I’m still gettin’ in the girls’ pants
and I even got my own dance
{Chorus:}
The Humpty Dance is your chance to do the hump
Do the Humpty Hump, come on and do the Humpty Hump
Do the Humpty Hump, just watch me do the Humpty Hump
Do ya know what I’m doin’, doin’ the Humpty Hump
Do the Humpty Hump, do the Humpty Hump

ROFLOL cause I SOOOOOOOO remember this video!

521 Pitas for Rita 10.25.09 at 10:26 am

Was that a bit much? Sorry. ;)

522 Queen of Dork 10.25.09 at 10:41 am

Pitas for Rita: Wow. That was a freak out session. But me likes!

523 AuntieMame 10.25.09 at 10:44 am

So when do we get to see the full growed morsel?

524 Pitas for Rita 10.25.09 at 11:01 am

@ QOD: So do you think I’ll fit in here? On occasion I do have the tendency to be a bit random. Or post something like my last post. =) Do you think the C.O. crowd will like me? I LOVE reading all the posts from all of you. Especially NTMTOM. I have 2 friends that are Mikes and we say that all the time to distinguish between them. I hope my randomness and tendency to go off on tangents will be well appreciated here. :D

525 Queen of Dork 10.25.09 at 11:12 am

Pitas for Rita: LOVE.

526 Mary (the first) 10.25.09 at 11:20 am

WHAT?? Guesser # 4 won and yet you allowed us all to stress out and make fools of ourselves for another (at last count) over 500 reponses?! That’s just .. just .. cruel!!

527 Mary (the first) 10.25.09 at 11:25 am

OK, now I scrolled up and see the winner was announced at 484 which means “ONLY” 480 responses past the one that won. Still cruel and inhumane! Forcing us to look at this little tidbit and try to figure out what he/she is without the advantage of a snorgle to help. Cruel, I say.

528 Pitas for Rita 10.25.09 at 11:26 am

Why ty QOD. I’m feeling it already. Too bad I have CDO (that’s OCD, but with the letters in alpha order, as they should be!) and since you were post num 525 and I shall now be 526 I must continue to post until we have reached 550. Things must be increments of 5, 10, or 25. Since the numbers are so high already, it must be 25s now. I hope you understand… ROFL.

529 Queen of Dork 10.25.09 at 11:39 am

I like pita bread. With tuna in it.

530 Pitas for Rita 10.25.09 at 11:43 am

With dill pickles and Miracle Whip.

531 smallrose 10.25.09 at 11:47 am

532 T1sinclair 10.25.09 at 2:22 pm

Brittney Spaniel

533 Resriechan 10.25.09 at 6:23 pm

@ Pitas: Yup, yup; that’s the one! I rather ’specially enjoyed the fact that this tough lookin’ urban dark-complected fellow, with dark shades on, chose to use the word “spunky” in the lyric. nice bit o’ oddity, that.

534 Resriechan 10.25.09 at 6:26 pm

ps @ Pitas: didja do the assignment that I suggested, up in the Glossary?
Truly, there are bits there gua-RON-teed to make ya LOL AND in addition, they will actually explain some backstory behind some recurring sub-topics…..
Really pretty fun.
Gratis a Theo, so we unnerstand.

535 Resriechan 10.25.09 at 6:34 pm

@ Pitas: ( IF I managed to navigate the internet & cite the link correctly, etc., …)please see/ simply click on the following very descriptive & insightful review, of the song in question:

@ Ed in 508 …ok, thanks for checkin’. I thought I was bein P Incorrect & unkind & insensitive & all kinds of other stuff, when I said “…not a Drug Addict”…thx for your lookin’ it overrrrr…

537 Pitas for Rita 10.25.09 at 7:05 pm

@ Resriechan: Thank you for the Glossary, I am quite familiar with Barfing Rainbows, Baroo, and my most favorite (at least until I get throug the Cs) C.O.X.C.U.

I liked Humpty’s fez with the tag still attached. Very Minnie Pearl-esque.

538 Queen of Dork 10.25.09 at 7:12 pm

Ed: Oh! Thanks for the exply!

539 Resriechan 10.25.09 at 7:40 pm

@ Pitas: wow kinda deep, when we end up w/ Minnie Pearl & D. Underground having a fashion element in common ………Kultcha Clash but yet….Symmetry !!!

540 Donna 10.25.09 at 8:36 pm

English Bulldog

541 Sandi's Mom 10.25.09 at 9:54 pm

That nose looks to be a very young golden retreiver , but the coloring looks as to be a cocker spaniel pup.

542 woohoo! 10.25.09 at 11:44 pm

are we still guessing this puppy’s bread? Do we still not know?

543 Bunnypoo 10.26.09 at 12:06 am

It’s a bassett hound. Muffy guessed correctly, or perhaps just knew her pups that well! ;0) Grats Muffy muffy bo buffy! Because of you I had to go and actually spend money on a calendar lol….Now I have to wait until January to use it.

544 meggy 10.26.09 at 3:23 am

Thx for the reminder, Bunnypoo. I have to get my calendar too.

a basset! I had a basset puppy (shame on me) but he was at least six weeks old when I got him. This lemon meringue marzipan morsel must be only days or hours old. The ears have a long way to grow, but they will make it. Congrats Muffy! BH’s forever! (BHF?)

545 Kellie 10.26.09 at 4:13 am

546 Jackie337 10.26.09 at 4:21 am

brittney spaniel, definitely.

547 Metz 10.26.09 at 8:23 am

@Queen of Dork and any other peeps who might have signed up for or visited Cute Talk, yeah we’ve got a weird auto replace thing going on that might throw some of ya. We don’t go in and personally edit your posts though, it is an automated thing we set up that if the system sees a word from the list we created it automatically replaces it with one of the silly offbeat replacements we chose. It’s all meant to be for fun and not to make you upset, and we’re talking right now of either creating a glossary (as suggested by Theo) or scrapping it altogether.

Also I wanted to ask, if anyone who has signed up on Cute Talk within the last 2 months that has not received a welcome email from me to please email me metztree @ hotmail.com as we seem to be having trouble with the forum’s email notifications. If you hadn’t received the email that might explain some of your confusion about how our auto replace works as I tried to cover that in my welcome.

And lastly, a HUGE thank you to Cute Overload for hosting a link to our forum, we aren’t officially a part of Cute Overload by any way shape or means, just a buncha peeps like you who met here and moved some of the conversation to a new venue. Thanks for putting up with our wild & crazy ways CO!

548 Raquel 10.26.09 at 10:40 am

549 mrs shortcake 10.26.09 at 2:43 pm

Bull terrier

551 Hevah 10.27.09 at 12:23 am

Basset hound.
No other breed has schnozzle rockin’ like this.

552 Resriechan 10.27.09 at 5:33 am

@ Metz: Heya !! Useful details & such.

1) If y’all “di’unt” already email QoD from her comments box, about your requests above, I’ll send her a direct email with the paragraph copied, so she’ll be sure to have it avail to act..
2) Myself, the last couple of weeks I’ve been unable to use a computer/ internet that would let me hook back into CuteTalk. When she & I were communicating there at first, I was on my personal laptop/ apt room w/ an internet device there. However my Internet receiver “crashed & burned” a few days after she & I got ea others’ direct emails….so now the computers avail to me w/ Internet have Parental Controls/ Community shared equipment that won’t let me go to the CT thinggie so I don’t even know, wh. there have been any emails to me, there, since my personal internet receiver “busted” …..

Thanks for the conscientious help (& thanks also to Theo for being somewhat an intermediary on these “circumstances & “Sichuashions”. Thanks, Theo !)

Peace & grooviness to all.

578 Pitas for Rita 11.07.09 at 3:18 pm

@ Theo…. I think the guessing for fun transcends the fact that someone actually guessed it. However, thank you for your ever informative posts. ;)

579 (> ' ' )> JUST DANCE 11.07.09 at 7:13 pm

is it a english bulldog?

580 Theo 11.08.09 at 9:21 pm

…is it a basset hound?

581 Queen of Dork 11.08.09 at 9:39 pm

Could it be a thing?

[Can't say definitively. Haven't 100% ruled out it being a place, yet. - Ed.]

582 Queen of Dork 11.08.09 at 9:52 pm

Ed: oh.

583 Theo 11.08.09 at 9:57 pm

Oh come on, you can’t start bantering and then just crumple. It’s unseemly. :P

584 Queen of Dork 11.08.09 at 9:59 pm
