“Duck Hunt Project” Aims to Recreate Classic Video Game in Real Life
A canine group of vintage video game fans have embarked (see what we did there?) on an ambitious art project to recreate the classics in New York’s public spaces.
First on the list is Nintendo’s Duck Hunt, complete with that laughing dog. Ranger is pictured above getting into character in anticipation of passing tourists.

For Dogs, Begging Is More Effective Than Working
A new study out from the Center for Canine Prosperity reveals what many have known for some time – that dogs often get what they want by begging, rather than working hard for it.
Researchers reviewed the productivity-to-income ratios of nearly 3,000 dogs across the country and found that those who beg are, on average, 34% more successful.
“What kind of work ethic are we instilling in today’s puppies if we give them whatever they want at the slightest whimper?” asks Conrad Butler, a conservative blogger who wrote about the study. “Next stop, government handouts.”

Dog and Chinchilla Form Fast Friendship After Valentine’s Party
It didn’t take long for Maggie (left) and Charlie (right) to realize they had a lot in common. Both are fluffy, both live in New York, both are pretty cute (if they do say so themselves), and both own every album by ’90s alt-rock band Better Than Ezra.
After being introduced by a mutual friend at a Valentine’s Day party, the two have been texting furiously, and there are rumors of a date night on the horizon.
