Dog Stays Up All Night to See the Sunrise

Hibert the dog, a golden retriever Rotterdam, The Netherlands, successfully stayed up all night to watch the sunrise this morning.

“He wasn’t sure if he’d make it,” said Jaimie Brooks, who stayed up with Hibert. “Around 3am he started getting sleepy, but we made a quick run to the 24-hour coffee shop and got him caffeinated and back on track.”

Was it worth it?  Hibert seems to think so.  After watching the sun peak over the horizon, he reportedly curled into a ball and went to sleep with a smile on his face.

Dog Keeps Slightly Smaller Dog as Pet

In a move that many are calling “weird” and “unsavory,” Cleo the dog has decided to keep a smaller dog named Ruff as a pet.

Friends say Cleo, who was herself adopted, has always wanted adopt a dog of her own.  After a visit to the local animal shelter, she fell in love with Ruff and signed the papers to take him home that day.

“It’s a little creepy, but kind of sweet, too,” said pet expert Maya Tanenbaum. “I mean, Ruff has a good home now.  You can’t argue with that.”

Others don’t see it that way.  

“It upsets the natural order of things,” said one friend, who wished to remain anonymous.

Puppy Regrets Size Small Sweater Purchase

Otto the dog has been on a diet the past two months, that’s why he optimistically purchased a size small sweater last week at the mall.  Unfortunately for Otto, he hasn’t quite lost as much around his waistline as he thought.

“He really should have tried it on before he left the store,” chided friend Amy Amikker.  "And he really should have kept the receipt.  Now he’s stuck with it, and it looks ridiculous.“
