Scientists Trace Pomeranian Heritage to Teddy Bears
Geneticists at the University of California, Berkeley will publish new findings on the breeding heritage of Pomeranians.
“We’ve found a fork in the family tree that may explain why Poms are so puffy and cheerful all the time,” says Daniel Kromer, a senior researcher. “It seems they share a common ancestor with Teddy bears. It makes a lot of sense. I mean, just look at those things.”

Chihuahua Laughed Out of Comic-Con for Lame Costume
A Chihuahua named Sunny arrived in San Diego, CA this weekend, ready to get his geek on at Comic-Con.
“He’s a big Superman fan, but didn’t have a lot of time to make a costume,” says Allan Lansford, a source close to the situation. “He walked in there with a plastic cape, and those nerds really roasted him.”
Witnesses say Sunny left the convention early out of sheer embarrassment.

Dog to World: Deal With It
A New York City pup named Pippin is tired of apologizing for his extravagant lifestyle and fashion sense.
“People are just going to have to get used to the fact that he wears Spider-Man sunglasses, and not in an ironic way,” says Carl Decamp, a longtime friend.
Pippin can be seen in parks throughout the city, where he maintains friendships with dogs who judge him not on his accessories, but on his character.
