You’re all well aware of the fact that my dog is very cute. This is one of those indisputable facts that can easily be proven by science. But did you know that he is also insane?

I wanted to make a little video of him doing his repertoire of tricks, but he was so mesmerized by the bowl of carrot pieces that he started madly rolling over again and again and again, so intent was he on being rewarded with a carrot. He didn’t even really wait for me to tell him what to do. The whole thing gave me a case of the giggles.

[Please don’t laugh at my voice; I know I sound like a 12 year-old goober. I just can’t help talking to dogs (& often children) in that voice. Shudder. I mean, maybe just turn the volume down, or at least pretend you did.]
