A lot of people don’t know this, but our dog Bella has hypnotic powers.
You’ll be sitting at the dinner table, eating a piece of pizza, when you feel these strange… impulses.





Admit it, if you HAD a piece of pizza, you totally would have dropped it.

Oh, those eyebrows! Irresistible. Looks like she keeps that gorgeous rug super-clean for you. =>

haha! I love it. She is compelling!

Just be nervous when the suggestion is, “you want to roll over and play dead.”

Maybe you need to upgrade Bella’s dogfood diet?
February 19, 2010 at 10:07 pm
And now, I want a slice of pizza (or THREE). She is so darn cute.
February 20, 2010 at 9:55 pm
Hilarious. She’s such a cute dog.
February 21, 2010 at 7:21 am
I mean, who could deny a face…like that? Not me. Yep, woulda totally dropped the pizza!
February 21, 2010 at 5:33 pm
You’re right…so would have dropped it.
February 22, 2010 at 5:39 pm
I probably would have not dropped it, but I would have peeled off some cheese and meat, only because of past experience – not a good cleanup afterwards.
Very cute pics and a cute dog. Probably Bella is so hypnotic because you love your dog so much. :)
By the way, I work as a virtual assistant of The Healthy Moms ( http://www.thehealthymoms.net ), the site is fairly new and I thought I would drop by some mom related sites to spread the word.

Is bella a wheaten terrier/ Co she looks and acts just like Rufus – our wheaten terrier. The pizza delivery guy is one of his fave visitors!!!
February 25, 2010 at 3:02 pm
I confess! I totally want to drop pizza on the floor.

Such an adorable pup! I love the captions. :)

I am mostly surprised at how the majority of commenters AREN’T returning with “OMG that’s cute… but my dog snarfybum is just tremendously fantastic, and much more adorable than your canine due to [insert pseudo-humorous, non-unique tale of pet folly here].”
March 3, 2010 at 10:14 pm
My dog, Hometeam, does that to me about EVERYTHING!!
PICK ME UP….LET ME SLEEP IN YOUR BED…LET ME TAKE UP MORE THAN HALF OF THE SINGLE MATTRESS..GIVE ME THAT CHICKEN…
March 3, 2010 at 10:14 pm
oh, and BUY ME A TOY is a big one.
March 4, 2010 at 4:25 am
omg how cute! I’d totally drop the pizza. Our saint lays on the floor and crosses her front paws one over the other. I’m not sure if she’s trying to be cute to get a treat or what. But she always gets one.
March 5, 2010 at 12:27 pm
OMG she is SOOOOOOO cute! I would’ve followed her every command!!
March 8, 2010 at 12:13 am
So cute and adorable. I like the pictures.

Funny. Love it.

Very funny post. Couldn’t help but laugh
March 13, 2010 at 3:18 pm
Hellllooooooo? Are you in there? I look for you all the time. Should I forget about you? Come back next year? Or never? What’s up these days?
June 27, 2010 at 6:14 pm
Yeah! I keep coming back hoping for something new. But you’re M.I.A…
I’m sad.
June 27, 2010 at 7:42 pm
After four months… a new post. JUST FOR YOU! :)

Our dogs must be related! Those powers used to work so well on me before kids. Now the dogs have focused their powers on the kids. Works like a charm. At least the floor is clean. Can’t say the same for the dogs’ arteries.
April 19, 2010 at 7:43 am
He’s so cute I might have just gotten him his own pizza.
April 27, 2010 at 7:09 am
That is too funny!!
Cute dog too.
April 30, 2010 at 6:19 pm
How could you possibly resist.
May 6, 2010 at 3:11 pm
Too cute. How can you resist when they look so darn pitiful?
May 9, 2010 at 7:35 pm
I’m a little bit worried that your dog hypnotized me and I’ll forever be dropping pizza. So very cute (the dog, not me dropping pizza).
Just found your site. I ran through your last few post and…you’re hilarious! I love it. I’ll be back!
May 17, 2010 at 10:07 pm
Oh those puppy eyes…
