Crazy little dog

I think someone needs to take the batteries out of this thing. I can’t even explain what is happening with it.

    Totally creepy dog. Reminds me of something Liz McGrath would make. http://elizabethmcgrath.com/

      I hadn’t seen Liz McGrath’s work before. Gorgeous and evocative!

    Have you seen our dog’s “malfunction”? Not so much a malfunction as “perpetual motion meets immovable object,” or “mounted cavalry meets Sherman tank”:

      That’s a funny interaction.

    Reminds me of Ted Nugent for some reason.

    Maybe it’s been to the doggy dentist. That novocaine can be a killer for proper tongue function.

      Yeah, but they usually have to do dental work under general anaesthesia for animals, and I don’t think this dog has been anywhere near a downer, ever.

    ……”thing”???……”it”……???……sorry, had to ask it. You know, to all of us its in the world, right? ; ) Pssst……this comment was written without ego. Again, sorry when I see an older high strung dog who clearly has jaw/teeth problems just randomly being put up to make fun of…..I have to say something. It’s not nice…..think about it.

    It almost looks like it has a neurological problem, but then again, I think that about most small dogs.

    Fortunately it’s owner doesn’t do this to it. http://www.pinkcoyote.net/creativegrooming.html/

      Oh my. I think the camel and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle are my favorites.

    I still haven’t made up my mind whether I’m full of admiration or terrified by the whole thing. The peacock is interesting.

    That’s one patient dog.

    What amazes me is that the chicken, camel, and peacock, at least, seem to all be the same dog… the photogenic “Cindy”. the questions boggle the mind… How long does it take for a new coat to grow? Does the dye wash out, or does the dog have to walk around with her “roots” showing? And why does the groomer herself not feel ready to move beyond a bleached spiral perm into the realm of rainbow fluff?
