best animal friends

:3

the original odd couple

I'm only just now able to see Joe's dog/horse video. SO CUTE.

I had no idea fawns were soooo tiny. Even if that's an exceptionally huge cat, that fawn is wee.

I love the horse/dog too!

<3 to the whole thread, basically.

And I want to go jump in the middle of the dude-lion-lion cuddle puddle.

yah the fawn is so small! same size as cat!

i can't tell you if the tears on my cheeks are from sadness or laughter

OMG

I am dying. I started laughing so hard when they first showed Dever with his waggly tail that the lady in the cube next to me looked over and asked if it had really gotten that bad here that I was cracking up.

I LOVE YOU, DENVER!

Kinda tangential, but macaques can recognise their bffs in photos. Juvenile monkeys were fascinated but puzzled by the photographs. They often tried to greet or touch the animal in the image.

love denver

and !! @ trying to "greet or touch" their friends in the pics

great link, dowd

mvp posting imo

also the first little clip of the adult monkey looking quizzically at the photo needs to be a gif

I have watched guilty Denver like 10x.

guilty denver killed me

SO ASHAMED

i love how the other dog is all http://images.usatoday.com/news/_photos/2006/03/28/snitching-rayco.jpg

lol yeah

We took the comments off the video because some people were accusing us of beating our dogs.

Yeah. Weird, right? Forks posted it on his FB page and some girl was talking about how awful the owner was for abusing his dog? I was v confused.

owner sounds like woody harrelson

i think people are bullshittin' as owner's voice is kinda grating

denver reminds me of this - http://www.hulu.com/watch/4102/saturday-night-live-dissing-your-dog

I like the guy's drawl. "You let it happen. Well I hope you're happy too."

tips from the pros

Man, I posted Denver to my FB page and I got a couple concerned comments

Poor Denver

Mean master - what do you expect from a dog when you leave treats around - I can imagine how he treats his children!

can't they just accept something as totally, cosmically hilarious and awesome? fuck

its always amazing how little dog lovers understand dogs

The two commenters never had a single pet of any kind ever!

(sorry to keep harping on the Denver thing btw)

honestly feel a bit buzzkillington about that link. his guilty lip raising thing is him bearing his teeth out of feeling threatened. if a dog does that it is going to bite you really soon. doesn't mean its abused just that it feels cornered.

it's all kind of defused by the guy not being overly threatening. but you should never use that kind of punishment on a dog. just give it a command that it understands so it knows what is going on. that's why the dog is so relieved to just get in its crate. /soapbox

While I find that article's assertion dubious (I have come home to a REALLY guilty looking dog and had to search for the offense), I also don't think the teeth-baring is aggressive at all. An expression can mean more than one thing, and along with the timid tale-wag, the downcast gaze, and the squinting, it looks to me like the dog is being submissive and "ingratiating" (that's a little anthropomorphic, but the best term I can think of). It gets drawn out a little, but I would hardly call it mean, much less cruel, and even less abusive.

Kitty cat love <3

thats an american person so the american was probably immediately eaten after it was filmed fyi

I'd be his best animal friend.

Me too. I accidentally commented in the wrong thread (Look at these fucking cats thread) that I wish dearly to join that mass of cuddling.

These guys are killing me.

That would make a good advertisement for the toughness of that particular inflatable pool. Also: cute!!!!
