A Correction

Due to an editing error, Cute Overload announced that the Annual Unlimited Ear Skritches and All-You-Can-Eat Hamburger Festival would be held October 21. The correct date should have read October 12. Cute Overload regrets the error.

That sad look just breaks our hearts, Stephen A.

    Sgined, MP/ Holy Grail References R Us.

  24. warrior rabbit says:

    ONO — I think they might be offered the alternative, being bitten by a møøse.

    Also, I’d like to lightly poke the little pink spot on his schnozzle, and followed that with some mild ear nommage.

  25. warrior rabbit says:

  29. Kathy says:

    “That sad look just breaks our hearts.” Also, I think if our faces looked even remotely like a sirloin steak, he’d rip ‘em right off.

  30. blair says:

  31. BatBlaster says:

  32. N. Fritz says:

    re: 260Oakley’s Woe B. Gone
    Growing up I had a springer spaniel that was badly bred. She had papers but she also had a skin condition and a badly docked tail with 3 inches of fur just begging to be combed over the bald spot at the tip. I always wanted to submit her pedigree name as “Cassie’s Tail of Woe”

  33. violet says:

    Tail of Woe! Ha ha ha!! Good one!

  34. Martha in Washington says:

    There was an ad in the paper today for a “free to good home” boxer and now this…I think SOMEBODY is trying to tell me SOMETHING!! Do boxers and kitties get along well together?

  35. Hon Glad says:

    But, but I’ve missed it, oh but.

    Alice – I hope your successfull

  36. Lizzy says:

    Puppeh dog eyes, definish of.

    That look on his poor widdle punim! “But but but… but MooooooooOOOOooom!”

  37. Megatron says:

    @ Martha in Washington–Boxers and kitties can get along great! It depends on their personalities of course, but I have a cat and one of my old roommates had a boxer and they just loved each other, they’d hang out for hours.

  38. Mary (the first) says:

    That pupper doesn’t look any sadder than I am to know I missed the ear skritch festival! ** sob **

  39. Medusa says:

    Aww, someone needs a hug and a squeaky toy <3

  40. Rachael says:

    Those ears aren’t going to nom themselves, people!

  41. Alice says:

    THANKS everyone … will consider this puppy while in the interview to put a smile on my face (and in my voice) xo

  42. O NO He/She/It DI-unt!!! says:

    @ flutterbye:

    I appreciate your confidence in me, but …no…ackshually, my mind wanted me to type the word “signed” not “sgined”

    gah.

  43. kasia says:
