It’s been a hard week, we’ve just had supper, and I think this video may be the last push I need to send me off to bed for a nap. Watch the sleeping baby make the drowsy puppy sleepier and sleepier.

Dog and Baby
My doctor’s office has a poster which asserts that dogs and cats are good for babies, they help develop Baby’s immune system. What I really want to know is what you think of that weird-looking rug featured in this video. It’s distracting.
Dogs & Toddlers
I don’t understand, now, why I was afraid of dogs when I was little. We didn’t have one. Everybody else on our street did. Eventually I made friends with Brownie, who lived next door and had the run of the neighborhood.
(Story stops here: sorry, falling asleep as I type.)
Puppies, Dogs… and Babies
I couldn’t help thinking of my mother as I watched this. If any of the scenes depicted in these videos had ever been enacted in our house, my ma would have absolutely plotzed. No warmups–straight up to the moon!
Baby Walks the Dog
All right, little tiny humans can safely walk little tiny dogs. All the dogs in this video are well-behaved. They don’t take advantage of the toddlers. How much that reflects the realities of life, you be the judge. Just sayin’…
Dogs Walk Human Babies
How do dogs and cats understand that human toddlers are like kittens or puppies, and should be treated accordingly? You’d think a dog on a leash would get excited about something and pull the baby over… but that only happens once in this video.
Priceless! Baby and Bloodhound Duet
Neither of them can sing, but this is a duo made in Heaven. Have you ever seen a cuter baby? Back and forth they go, the baby and the dog. I wonder which one of them will give up first.
A Rather Rude Dog
Rumor has it that dachshunds have been genetically modified to pull your pants off. You know the kinds of stuff the Pentagon gets up to.
So far it works best against babies. If our country ever has to fight an army of babies, we’ll be ready.
Kiddies & Kitties
It seems clear, from scads of video, that dogs and cats understand that human babies are–well, babies–and act accordingly. The same huge Doberman that would send me shinnying up a tree has the baby in stitches.
I don’t know where they got the baby orangutan.
Dogs & Babies: The Whatchamacallit
(Sorry, couldn’t think of a catchy headline.)
Ever since Romulus and Remus were suckled by a wolf, dogs have been taking care of human babies. Think how different it would’ve all turned out, had they been raised by newts.
