A bunny of two whats? A bunny of 2 other bunnies? Isn't that how it usually works?

"He was the same size as the other two pups when they were born but as they grew, he didn't," she said.

They'll probably try and breed it for that trait.

He who? Scooter? Your mutant bunny/pokemon? It's unclear who "he" is. Assuming you meant to write "bunny or two"--does this mean you're proposing a three-way for one of kid-dom's favorite characters?

Nice work rhythmically but fails. A little more work is required.

Damn that thing is small.
With the right amount of time and seasoning, it should be rather tasty.

Yeah, and whatever health problems go along with it. Poor dog. Sure would be cheap to feed though.

He is the cutest lil feller evar!

I used to dislike little bitty dogs. As I grow older and more patient I've come to like the pathetic little things.

 
lukelightning 2009-07-14 11:24:34 AM  
"Gisborne owner Cheryl McKnight fashioned a regular purple sock into a jersey, which Scooter wears so he is easily seen around the house."

Or maybe you could not decorate your house entirely in glossy white shag.

I've seen cuter bunnies, honestly.

I believe subby means "a two year old bunny"... short for "a bunny of two years of age".

 
nobodys_goose 2009-07-14 11:28:57 AM  
So they try and declare 6-MONTH old puppies to be "smallest dogs" now?

Call back when he's 6 years old and that size.

The forced perspective on that shot makes it look a giant tea cup with an ordinary puppy.

This. Guinness won't recognize him as the record holder until he's 2 years old, if memory serves. This is just like that family in India that was bawwwwing because they wouldn't give their 12 year old son the record for being the shortest person in the world. Here's a pic of the current record holder:

The Great Dane next to him was the record holder for world's tallest dog at the time, though I'm not sure he's still the tallest.

A pub that doesn't grow? So the biatch would be giving birth to pups the same size as her. Ouch.

As you know, after Peter Jackson took over New Zealand, all photographers and videographers were intensively trained in forced perspective and are now required by law to utilize this technique at all times.

FTFA: Scooter was originally named Pee Wee, but Ms McKnight decided to change the name, saying she didn't want him to suffer an inferiority complex.

This is why we can't have nice things.

chrisco123: Invariably, people who have these miniature dogs are jerks.

Really? In what way? I'm curious.

I've run into one or two tiny dog owners who were middle-aged-never-married-doggie-as-substitute-baby types, which was just silly. And of course it's not hard to find large dog owners who use their dogs as a sort of look-how-manly-I-am fashion accessory, a different kind of silly. But most dog owners I know, big or small, just like having a friend.

Me, I'm a cat owner - a different kind of sickness.

JohnCarter: My dog just left a gift in the yard bigger than that

LOL, I'm a real klutz and I'd be afraid I'd step on it and kill it.

I have a long-suffering dog who has been stumbled over a time or two; she is a larger breed but she still loves me so I guess it doesn't hurt too much...the dog has a pet cat that she leaves lying around sometimes I have tripped on him too, and its my experience that they're much more rubbery/injury resistant.

chrisco123: Invariably, people who have these miniature dogs are jerks.

Came here to say this.
Well, maybe not "invariably", but "more often than not".

Just one example:
Dog parks are ruined if there are many of these little dog owners around. They're absolutely paranoid that their precious little canine snowflake is going to be attacked or stepped on. If a normal dog gets anywhere near it, they (the owner) have a panic attack. Meanwhile, their spoiled little yap factory squeals and growls and actually does most of the instigating.

Here's the evidence FTFA:

Scooter's siblings were sold.

"Dogs have to weigh at least 870 grams before they can leave their mums for the shops, and he has not even reached halfway."


Sold the other pups to pet stores. Puppy mill?

Those little dogs are jerks right along with the owners. They bark at everything and growl and snarl and it's fine because 'they're just scared,' but if my 70 pound dog reacted like that, she would be a dangerous menace.
But of course she wouldn't because her brain is bigger than a pea and she had been properly trained and socialized.

My dog doesn't get underfoot too much, but once we had a baby that changed. One, the baby is a constant source of snacks for the dog (spit-up, cheerios) and so the dog wants to be near it. Two, especially as he grows, the child becomes an enormous blind spot for the floor in front of you. Fortunately, our dog while small (11lb) is sturdily built... about the same height/length of most dogs half her weight which is made up by muscle and bone.

Anyhow, the lady in TFA said she put a purple sock on the li'l nipper to enhance his visibility. Concern: validated.

Awwwww, sounds like a nice little dog. Good on ya'. I like small dogs too, but I am telling you if there's anything to fall over, get your clothes hooked on, lose your balance on etc., I will. Sometimes I am amazed I'm still alive. I have not injured any dogs or cats ever thank God. It does seem to me tho' that white is more visible than purple, don't you think?

These little dogs are disgusting. What kind of sick bastard looked at the wolf eons ago and thought to himself, "Let's selectively bread these things until we can get 'em super small and sickly looking!"?

Get a farking hamster, lady...

Your 70 lb dog is a dangerous menace.

Maybe someday I'll be lonely enough to inflict some furry retard with a mouth full of teeth on the city I live in, but hopefully not soon.

Or, hey, maybe you live in the country or some other appropriate environment for a hunting/working animal. In which case, please accept my apologies.

Jeez pal, glad you're so much better than everybody else that you can condemn anybody that owns a dog bigger than a rat. You just keep going on being "not lonely." Yeah, that's the ticket.
