Puppies’ Date Ends With Awkward Kiss

Puppies’ Date Ends With Awkward Kiss

Everything was going well for John and Cindy, two Shiba Inu puppies from Long Beach, CA who went on a date to the Olive Garden last Saturday.

John was being witty, Cindy had hilarious work stories locked and loaded, and they both looked fantastic. Dinner was delicious, too (Cindy had the Herb Grilled Salmon and John ordered the Tour of Italy). It looked like a second date was definitely in the cards.

Then came the kiss.

“I’m still not sure what happened,” said Francine Baker, Cindy’s roommate. “She came in about 10:30, completely flustered. She didn’t really want to talk about it, but from what I gather, John is just a really bad kisser.”

No word yet on whether the two dogs will be able to move past the incident and see each other again.

Pup Launches Neighborhood Recycling Program

Pup Launches Neighborhood Recycling Program

A 5-month-old puppy named Otto was disappointed to learn that his area of Phoenix, AZ didn’t recycle plastic.

“They take metal and paper, but no plastic bottles,” says Johnathan Mitchell, Otto’s neighbor. “It’s 2013 for crying out loud, I don’t know what’s taken them so long.”

Rather than wait for the city government to act, Otto has taken the initiative and launched a localized plastic recycling program.

“He goes door to door collecting bottles,” says Mitchell. “He drives them to the closest processing center, which is on the other side of town. It’s a bit of a haul, but until we get more trucks or facilities in our neck of the woods, there will be a lot of plastic heading to the landfill. Otto’s on a mission to change that.”

Dog Sues Doctor for Botched Plastic Surgery

Dog Sues Doctor for Botched Plastic Surgery

Quinn the dog only wanted a little off the ears. Just a routine tuck to make them a bit more streamlined. Instead he got the exact opposite: ears blown up to cartoonish proportions.

That’s why Quinn filed a malpractice suit against the doctor who performed his procedure.

“It was a complete butcher job,” said Antonio Vega, who represents the dog and sent The Fluffington Post the above photo. “His ears are like that all the time. Just sticking out and goofy. Someone has to pay for this.”

The dog is seeking $500,000 for medical expenses, emotional distress and punitive damages.

Corgi Buys Homemade Hats on Etsy

A New Jersey corgi named Stanley has something of an addiction.

“He’s been known to order 25 hats online in one sitting,” says Raymond Marin, the dog’s roommate. His e-commerce platform of choice is Etsy, an online community where artists and craftspeople sell their handmade wares.

“He’s really into the crafty charm of homemade clothing,” says Marin. “He’s obsessed with it, actually. I’m talking about closets full of hats – most of them are made of felt or burlap. We’re talking lots of ribbons and glue guns, here.”
