Do dogs not understand what goes on in there? This is even more of an incentive to make sure you flush.
VIDEO: Dog Swings From Tree Rope
Never say you can’t teach an old dog new tricks! That certainly isn’t the case with this Pitbull.
Some dogs love fetching, some love chew toys, others love hanging and swinging from a rope attached to a tree. Hey, if it keeps him entertained, why not?
In the hilarious video, the owner prompts the dog to jump upwards to the rope. After a few attempts, the dog is successful. He bites the rope and starts to hang, swinging from side to side. This dog sure knows how to move his hips! And his hips don’t lie… he’s a true acrobat! He starts swinging in rapid circular motions.
He finally lets go and twirls to the ground.
We really hope this doesn’t hurt the dog’s teeth. Our better suggestion? Give him a hula hoop; he’s sure to master that too 😉

Cutest Dogs Say Sup #2
Dogs can lift our spirits, force us to exercise and show us a sense of humor. Today, they’re going to brighten your day. Our followers sent us pics of their doggies for us to showcase here for you.
MEET THE PUPS:
Hope

Having a cute pup isn’t just about looks—sometimes it’s about a dog’s ability to turn a heartbreaking situation into a hopeful one. This is exactly what this doggie’s mission is—her name is no coincidence.
A family was hit hard after the loss of two family members. On father’s day last year, one brother died of a sudden heart attack. He was an army veteran of eight years. Only a few months later, their mother died of cancer. Before her passing, the family promised her one thing: To keep their father home and out of a care facility. Their father, Robert Streich, is a disabled veteran. With the expenses piling up, the family started a GoFundMe page to help care for their father. Another measure they took was to introduce him to a dog named Hope. Hope is 11 years old and provides Robert with company and love. When she’s not hanging out with her dad, she loves to lie down for a nice snooze.

We know Christmas just passed, but for this dog it’s the beginning of rehearsal season! Widget is seen in the photo practicing for his nativity performance. On Christmas day, the 6-year-old and his doggy friends will get together to reenact the birth of Jesus. Memorize this photo—you never know, one day you may see Widget on the big screen! We called it first!

Sandie the beautiful golden girl is pictured here in a gorgeous pink dress. She’s only 8 weeks old and already has an incredible fashion sense. We predict Sandie will grow up to be a model or high-end fashion designer.
Oliver

Oliver was left an orphan when a cobra bit his mother. He was only 8 days old. Luckily, he was adopted by a lovely owner who has started a blog to document the pup’s life. Clearly Oliver has raised his spirits, as he’s seen challenging authority in the above picture. “I dare you, give me a ticket!” He thinks as he crosses over the yellow line on the road. For a young pup, he’s pretty daring!

Your Dog Can Netflix and Chill with Brisbane Dog Bed
If your dog doesn’t have a cool sofa, how is he supposed to Netflix and Chill? Brisbane Dog Beds make a fun evening possible.
Just imagine this: Joey the Shih Tzu invites his lady friend Bella the Chihuahua over for a Netflix and Chill evening. When Bella arrives, she sees Netflix is all queued up and popcorn is sitting on the coffee table. But she’s dismayed that there is nowhere to sit.
“What? You expect me to just sit on my rump!?” Bella says, her nose up in the air.
“Hmm… I forgot we’d need somewhere to sit,” Jack replies.
Bella wanders back to the front door and sits herself on the mat, hoping her owners come to pick her up soon. It’s only one minute into the date, and things are already a disaster.
She thinks back to the best date she ever had. His name was Toby. She didn’t remember much about him other than that he had a Brisbane Dog Bed. The crappy mat below her suddenly felt like the faux-leather sofa she rested on at Jacks. It was the one time in her life she actually felt human—the one time she actually felt like she was part of the world.
Jack wasn’t special—he wasn’t a funny dog and he wasn’t overly smart. In fact, he kind of smelled, something that Bella always hated. But she went on several more dates with him, just because she couldn’t resist his comfy couch. With it, a place that wasn’t home, felt like home.
Bella shook her head and remembered she was just laying on a cold, flat mat. She walked back into the living room, where her current date was sitting.
“Sorry, Bella, I overlooked where you were going to sit,” Joey said with a frown, followed by a quiet whimper.
“It’s not your fault, I just hoped you’d have one of those comfy sofas I’ve always dreamed of having myself,” Bella admitted, half apologetically.
“Oh yeah?” Joey questioned, “What kind of sofa is that?”
“The Brisbane Dog Bed… it’s only the hottest dog bed around!”
“Really? I never heard of it,” Joey said, headed over to the computer.
He pulled up Google and slowly typed in the search bar. His paws hit the wrong keys often, causing Bella to sigh.
“Here, let me do it. I’ve taken a few computer classes at the local library. My owners say I’ve become quite the typist. Some would even say I’m the world’s fastest dog typer.”
Wow, Joey thought, this Chihuahua is special—not only is she beautiful, but soon she will probably hold the Guinness World Record for fasted dog typist.
He smiled, moved aside, and let Bella take control of the keyboard.
Within only a couple of seconds, Bella had the keywords typed in and even pressed enter.
“I have to admit, I do have a little trouble with clicking,” Bella put her head down.
Joey let his nose fall to the mouse and clicked the first result.
“Wow, that is better than I even imagined. It’s like a sofa, only for dogs!” Joey exclaimed, staring at the magical bed.
“That’s not all! Our owners love it because the faux-leather makes it easy to wipe clean,” Bella explained.
“You’re starting to sound like a Brisbane Dog Bed salesman, Bella,” Joey said skeptically.
“You mean salesdog.”
Wow, she was also witty, Joey thought.
He clicked add to cart.
“How do you suppose you’re supposed to pay? In dog biscuits?” Bella said.
“I’m not stupid. I know dog biscuits are not an accepted currency… at least for humans.”
He headed over to his owner’s purse, picked up the wallet using his mouth, and carried it back to the computer.
“One of these is a credit card.”
“Are you sure your owners won’t be mad?”
“Who cares if they’re mad? Once it’s here, it’s here. They’re not going to return it.”
He picked out the credit card and placed it on the table. Bella started typing in the numbers and the billing information.
“You know Bella, I may have disappointed you tonight, and you may not come back. But I’m very thankful you at least came over once—you introduced me to what could very well be the greatest dog bed ever.”
Bella wagged her tail.
“Well, Joey, if you get the Brisbane Dog Bed, I can assure you that I will be over again!”
Hilarious Video Shows Cool Dog Driving Moped
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6_W_84vH58
There hasn’t been a more accurate video to describe the term “cool dog.”
In the video above, a golden retriever drives a moped. We’re not kidding—he actually drives it.
The dog holds onto the handles, orange sunglasses on, tongue hanging and looking cool as ever.
His owner sits on the back, not even assisting the pup.
His owner starts to hold on tight to the dog as they travel at a fast speed through a city street. The pup’s hair blows in the wind as he smiles at his newfound freedom.
His owner gives cheering fellow motorists a thumbs up, as if to say, “Don’t worry guys! My dog does this all the time!”
We’re thinking the pup just got his learner’s permit and needed to test out the city streets with his owner before making an adventure on his own. Parents teaching their children how to drive can be terrified at times, but this dog? He has it all under control. His owner smiles, not showing a worry at all.
It’s a weird world when teaching a dog how to drive becomes easier than teaching a teenager. Perhaps we should just train our dogs to drive our children to soccer practice or outings with friends.
“Mom, I need to go to the mall. All my friends are meeting up in 15 minutes,” your daughter demands.
“Don’t worry, hunny, I’ve already told Buddy to drive you, my favorite show is coming on and I just can’t miss it,” you reply.
Buddy jumps up from his dog sofa and grabs the car keys off the kitchen counter. He runs to the car, puts on his favorite tunes, and delivers your daughter to the mall just in time. Everyone is happy.
So, that may be a little unrealistic. Back to the video…
People on the street laugh and throw their hands up in excitement.
The golden retriever continues cruising; he’s too cool to acknowledge his fans.
“I hope that chocolate lab I’ve been checking out sees me. I’ll show her how much of a bad boy I really am!” he’s likely thinking.
We bet when he got home, he logged onto DogMail and sent all of his crushes the video. Subject line: “Come Take A Ride on My Moped, Ladies.”
Pretty soon, all the cute doggies are barking at his door.
This dog has a talent for sure! Maybe he will take up go karting, become a motorcycle stuntdog, or even try his tail at NASCAR driving. The need for speed is real!
Wherever he takes his talent, we hope that maybe next time he wears a helmet. At one point during the video, he leans too much towards one side and almost takes his paws off the handle bar. He definitely needs a few more lessons before he has fully mastered driving.
We don’t encourage that you sit your dog in your car and watch him go. After all, that didn’t work out too well in a situation earlier this month.
Busy Dogs Need To Relax
When busy dogs get home from work, you should let them relax with a nice cold one. I’ll tell you why:
Little Buddy and his coworkers keep themselves busy dogs all day by filing paperwork, sending emails, returning customer’s phone calls and keeping inventory updated. Sometimes their days can get very hectic when they get assigned way too much work from their boss. Little Buddy skips his breaks, eats lunch at his desk and even holds in his poops just to try to get the work done in time. The clock is winding down for the hectic dogs and deadlines are flying by.
Their boss runs into the room and whips his tail across Buddy’s head and exclaims, “Buddy! This was supposed to be filed hours ago! Now you must stay until you get this whole pile completed.”
Buddy holds in his cry, points his ears and sucks it up; the work just has to get done. Suddenly, a dog’s busy 9 to 5 workday turns into a 12-hour shift. By the end of the night, he’s fuming and the next day is even worse.
He walks into the office and he just can’t take it anymore. Your dog’s stress may lead him to act out in he office, telling his coworkers, and even his boss, to bark off. Several human resource complaints may need to be filed for your dog to get the picture: busy dogs can’t equal angry dogs. He may benefit from taking a few anger management classes to help him control his emotions on hectic days. Still, old habits are hard to change.
He stops short of getting the pink slip by picking up his slack and working overtime without pay.
Little buddy just hopes one day all of his busy doggy work will pay off and he’ll get a raise so he can buy the most gourmet kibble around. Right now, he’s saving to pay for his children’s obedience school.
So yes, at the end of the day, your dog absolutely deserves a pack of Busy Dogs Bowser Beer!
White Lab Crashes His Truck-Trailer Into Car
A Minnesota lab’s joy ride came to an abrupt end today when the truck crashed into a tree and parked car.
Police believe the dog shifted the truck-trailer into gear when his owner was inside a gas station.
According to the news report, the crash didn’t get the dog down; he seemed very joyful afterwards (perhaps celebrating the beginning of his truck driving career?).
Our advice? Don’t leave your dog alone at the wheel… unless he has passed has driver’s license test.
