Boston Terrier Born Without a Body
In what scientists are calling “some totally crazy s**t,” a torso-less Boston terrier has been discovered in Quebec, Canada. The adorable pup is all head and feet – no abdomen or limbs to speak of.
“Not sure how this little guy is still alive,” says Burt Korman, a geneticist with Harvard Medical School. “Where does he keep his internal organs? How does he move around? Does he just waddle?”
But not everyone in the scientific community is convinced of this genetic miracle. “It’s quite obviously the perspective in the photo that makes him appear this way,” says Nita Lintner, an actual scientist. “You people are pretty dumb.”

Cat Determined to Celebrate July 4th All Week Long
A Baltimore, MD cat named Truman won’t settle for a one-day celebration of America’s founding.
“He started barbecuing on July 1st,” says Erica Dahmen, a neighbor. “Then there was the fireworks. And the music – John Philip Sousa, all day, all night.”
The patriotic cat is known about town for his week-long Independence Day celebrations, and the party is still going strong. This Saturday and Sunday promise to be full of summertime festivities in Truman’s back yard.

Dog Wears Black Tie to Casual Party
Beverly Hills pup Jackson was rather embarrassed when he arrived for what he thought was a formal affair.
“He was sporting full black tie. Jacket, duds – the works,” says party host Neil Fetters. “We were trying to keep it casual. Just getting a few dogs together to play some poker, you know?”
