I cannot BELIEVE I have this stupid haircut.
OMG. I seriously cannot stop laughing at this poor dog. I think I've been laughing for a solid five minutes. Look at that haircut. He must be absolutely furious. LOOK at the fro with the trapezoid that is cut out to allow his beady eyes some room! OMG, ROTFL. And the poor other dog in the background is getting his hair cut the SAME WAY will have the SAME FATE. Oh, man, this is too much. I haven't laughed this hard since, well, the last post.
Hot damn.
Thanks very very much, Kerry L. and the Chicago Tribune photographer Kuni Takahashi.

that dog looks so angry, like everyone is going to pay for his hair being like that
oh my gosh, it's a bichon frise! i have the same dog. but mine is much much cuter. beyond comparison. i'll send auntie meg a photo and you can all judge for yourselves... :-)
looks like plastic. poor toy dog.
It's Dog Ross!
Thank god I stumbled upon your website. There was a serious lack of CUTE in my life.
This dog looks SERIOUSLY pissed! Poor little guy.
for gosh sake, people. the dog only looks angry because of the funny downswoop the "hairstylist" gave him above his eyes. . .I seriously doubt he's anything but completely befuddled about what's going on.
it's still a very funny picture, though.
Looks like afro's are back in fashion. :P
they are not getting a haircut in the shot, its more like styling before a dog show, this is how bichon frise should look like in order to be eligible for such shows. i think the fur is very nicely done and fluffed up!
Teehee - it looks like a grumpy smiley if you squint a bit!
>:o.
Jeee....this should be in the cute or sad folder!!
i'm not sure if that's actually another dog with the same fate in the background. looks like a mirror to me.
awww - how awful! poor little dogs. (they look liket they're made out of scuplted bubbles. haha)
*like
**sculpted (wish it was possible to go back and correct comments! i guess i'm just so excited about the cuteness that i don't bother with the spelling check. haha)
Bichons are much cuter when they're not clipped this way.
Yes, it is a stupid haircut, and an insult to this site. Please remove this crap from here. A bichon frise is too selective, not to mention it falls under the category of among the most despised dogs.

(and folks, bear in mind, there are a lot of different Mikes in this world, including those that fall under the category of among the most... ah, you know. blah de blah.)
ya, i'm gonna have to agree with Mike. people who like dogs like this are really at one end of the spectrum -> those who have tamagotchi's as their best friend and others who borderline insane elderly.
Doesn't that dog host a show on PBS about painting?
i don't think this dog is "cute" as in fuzzy bunny cute - i feel bad for it so it's another kind of cute to me. (fyi - my best friend is not a tamagotchi and i'm not an insane/elderly woman, arse.)
"Doesn't that dog host a show on PBS about painting?" - haha!
Heh. Bitchin' frizzy.
lmao poor lil guy gettin the disco treatment and everything....but u know if someone did that to me i think id look rather pissed too...btw what the hell is a tamagotchi????
poor thing =( but should be very hugger-friendly =)
And people wonder why dogs like these as well as poodles are ticked off all the time. You would be too if someone did this to you! Poor pup!
Tru dat, GolfWidow.
Spiffy -- click the namelink for Tamagotchi info. Late-90's fad.
That's quite a 'fro. It's a little poofy for me, but doesn't the body fur (easier to see on the dog in the background) look like a cloud? Or cotton candy? I bet it's nice and springy. Makes me want to squeeze him.
oh my god my dog used to look exactly like that until we got too lazy to get him properly groomed.
it's called the "sheep" look for poodles :P
AFROKEN!!!!!!
Okay, I feel the need to point some things out:
A thinker, you obviously do not live up to your namesake, as it is quite evident that the cut is what makes the dog appear angry. Now, some of the slower people would not immediately understand this, but give the smarter people a break! If you think you're so high and mighty because you've pointed this out, then good, get a gold star and go buy a pair of pliers to help with dislodging that rod from your rectum.
Kittypants, note the conduit going down to the platform, and the position of the man in the background. That is no mirror.
Yes, I'm grumpy. >:( Insomnia will do that to you. I probably look as angry as that dog. Just pay no heed to me and get on with the CO love. :)
ANYWAYS... I think the pup is cute. :)
Ouch, hashi. No harm meant. Sounds like you need to get some sleep. . .
Yeek!
Hashi, I found you a nap...
good picture, theo :-)

I've seen vicious dogs that didn't look that angry. If they had that haircut they probibly be more vicious.-Woods Walker
My God, it's Afro Ken, come to life.

Woah what's with the bichon hatin'? I know it's "just a dog" but when you selectively despise a particular part of a species... well, that's discrimination!
Anyway, I have an adorable, fluffy, well groomed Bichon. We adopted him from a rescue organization and he is the epitome of cute.
Christine: I'm sitting here eating my lunch, checking up on the CO comments from the morning. I start to read yours, like any other, and then you go and cap it off with "arse"! I just about spit out my lunch - too funny!
Aw, I love the little frizzles that stick up.
"*growl* Forget the happy little trees, I'm gonna paint your funky ass into a corner if you keep snipping on me like this, yo! *snarl*"

man, those dogs are so soft. I don't know if it's the way they fluff them so much, but you can barely tell when your hand makes contact... sooooft.
Okay is it me or does this poor pooch look like a Star Wars Storm Trooper from the original trilogy? (Yeah I'm a geek)
The caption could read "If Darth Vader had a dog."
Poor thing, I thing the Dark Side has had an influence here. I say use the force poochy and bite'm in the light saber! No one would blame you!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA
re: the PBS painter guy...
"and a little green paint wants to live, right. about. here."
is he still on?
Hahahah, awww. My friend has a bichon, which we always refer to as his "fluffy white puffball dog."
Actually, that is HOW bichons are supposed to be styled. Very good circled head, kudos to the groomer. Looks great too me
arbed: arse is one of the best words -- 'specially in cases like that (when it's true). haha :)
That dog looks like it was created for an episode of South Park! Fluffy, but so, so, ANRGRY!
Poor doggie! I don't understand the point of having your dog look like a lifeless statue... which always seems to be the case with these shows. Free the doggies! Say no to shows!
This dog looks EXACTLY like the guy on PBS! For those of you who don't know him: http://www.bobross.com/
I think he died a few years ago, unfortunately.
