Coolest dog ever

[–]slambient[S] 251 points252 points ago

she has thinned out and lost a lot of the fluff she had as a puppy. she looks more like a wolf now.

OP will deliver etcetcetc

[–]so_i_happened 270 points271 points ago

It's been 12 minutes how long could your trip out possibly be?!?!?!?!!!!

[–]slambient[S] 171 points172 points ago

It's hard to tell. I'm sitting outside of fitting rooms. Sometimes it feels as if I may never return.

[–]D07 40 points41 points ago

Good choice, run while you can.

[–]BECKSTERRRR 36 points37 points ago

I work in a clothing store, and I keep candy in my fitting room for the boyfriends. Also children.

[–]Cheese_Bits 18 points19 points ago

You're awesome! Unfortunately I still have to rank you below the place that had Calvin and Hobbes books.... regulations and all. I'm sure you understand.

[–]BECKSTERRRR 11 points12 points ago

I've been outdone.

[–]clemsonkid117 3 points4 points ago

It's okay though, you tried!

[–]antifogmatic 17 points18 points ago

Hey, it's Friday. Give OP at least 30 minutes!

[–]Inidi6 20 points21 points ago

The 30min is up.

[–]zxrax 15 points16 points ago

41 minutes later... It's like 11PM where I live and it's night pretty much everywhere that redditors live except maybe Australia. We all know no redditors go out on friday nights, so...I think it's safe to say OP will never deliver.

[–]slambient[S] 20 points21 points ago

9:30. Now I'm waiting for my better half to pick out candles.

I'll be delivering. Promise.

[–]IHavePoopedMyPants 13 points14 points ago

It's been FIVE minutes, how much longer can we wait?!

[–]slambient[S] 19 points20 points ago

Go shower and change your pants. I might be back by the time you're back.

[–]hnrqoliv182 7 points8 points ago

I don't have the attention span for that even though I'm really interested!

[–]Cheesepudding 24 points25 points ago

51 minutes. OP is dead for sure.

[–]aboynamedsoo 38 points39 points ago

1 hour. OP is dead and now must give puppy to me.

[–]PutBjorkOnYourSpork 24 points25 points ago

OP will surely deliver.

This picture is unbearably cute.

[–]NoLongerALurker09 6 points7 points ago

I see what you did there.

[–]Pwninator 10 points11 points ago

I see what you did bear.

FTFY

[–]brighterside 7 points8 points ago

Ok, you do realize this is a cub and it's cute until about 5 years down the road it brings home a neighbor instead of a bird.

[–]Tinyplum 6 points7 points ago

is this person serious... or trolling... do not know

[–]slambient[S] 129 points130 points ago

for those wondering, we're not entirely sure of the breeds because we can't really trust the people we got her from (if you'd like to read a bit of her story go here). but, we were told german shepherd/akita/corgi mix.

based on her features and size, now, those breeds seem to be accurate.

[hi jeff. :X]

[–]DieselMcArthur 151 points152 points ago

And you are sure it's not actually a bear?

[–]jadeycakes 91 points92 points ago

How awkward would that be the first time you went to the dog park?

[–]shark_vagina 70 points71 points ago

It would be more bloody than awkward.

[–]MexicanFightingSquid 68 points69 points ago

You'd know wouldn't you shark_vagina.

[–]dcknight93 29 points30 points ago

I want to see the showdown between a MexicanFightingSquid and a shark_vagina. That has epic written all over it.

[–]Bongson 25 points26 points ago

More like Japanese cartoon porn, but sure, lets call it epic.

[–]IAMAVelociraptorAMA 7 points8 points ago

Dog parks usually are.

[–]GluonJetPilot 14 points15 points ago

Why aren't there any cat parks?

[–]Semyonov 11 points12 points ago

Same reason.

[–]GluonJetPilot 22 points23 points ago

Maybe they could have cat parks, if they only allowed one cat in at a time.

[–]Semyonov 4 points5 points ago

Do you have any idea how many cat ladies would be lined up?!? Around the block.

As far as the eye can see.

[–]adaranyx 2 points3 points ago

Cat ladies don't leave their house except to buy 100 cans of cat food at a time.

[–]ScienceYouMonster 34 points35 points ago

AND YOU NAMED HER KHALEESI!? 10/10

[–]Beasty_Glanglemutton 13 points14 points ago

You should go to state fairs and charge people to watch you wrestle it.

[–]LionHorse 11 points12 points ago

Nope. I'm going with a stuffed Teddy Bear had sex with a Tanuki.

[–]danaofdoom 12 points13 points ago

Slambient, I'm sorry to tell you this, but I think someone gave you a bear cub and told you its a german shepherd/akita/corgi mix.

[–]UhOhOreo2012 5 points6 points ago

Definitely mixed with an Akita, you can tell pretty easily.

[–]epskate 12 points13 points ago

Happy to see this dog will have a good life. Thank you for being a good dog owner.

[–]WBedsmith 3 points4 points ago

I have a mutt (my dad found her in a parking lot in Queens), and this is the closest dog I've ever seen to my dog. Long-lost relatives?

[–]inwardsinging 2 points3 points ago

She seems to be a blue color (grey) which doesn't really occur in those breeds, so I'd guess there's some Chow in there as well.

[–]akosborne 2 points3 points ago

Looks like there might be chow in there. Shape of the face looks very chow like.

[–]Mightypurv 63 points64 points ago

The world needs more pictures of this fluffiness

[–]centipedeseverywhere 41 points42 points ago

OP DELIVERS!

[–]EviliciousAZ 26 points27 points ago

dear diary, on this day, OP was not a faggot.

[–]Lifeweaver 3 points4 points ago

Those eyes. They can see my soul.

[–]Rokkamuffin 24 points25 points ago

Are you keeping a bear on a leash? Im pretty sure that will backfire at some point

[–]slambient[S] 42 points43 points ago

maybe i'll be the next this guy.

edit: minus the fedora. important distinction. NO FEDORA.

[–]Brandonberg 2 points3 points ago

I think having a bear as a pet makes up for wearing a fedora, but only sometimes.

[–]sumuvamonkeyfiver 2 points3 points ago

The fedora's only at his wedding...and I think it's an HIMYM reference.

[–]craigmfaustin 19 points20 points ago

Ha found a person I know in real life on Reddit accident. Win. Your Dog is amazing and looking healthy.

[–]slambient[S] 13 points14 points ago

hello cmfa. :]

and, yes, she's very healthy now.

[–]TheBigFo 17 points18 points ago

It's so fluffy I wanna die!

[–]alamanderz 57 points58 points ago

Before looking at all the Aw you provided in the album I was really having doubts on this adorable animal not being a bear cub. I want nine of them please.

[–]slambient[S] 30 points31 points ago

i'd take nine more if they were all healthy. definitely couldn't afford any more of the same scenario we had when we picked this one up.

[–]The_Nice_Knight 7 points8 points ago

Well, now. You've said it, so tell the story, please!

[–]TimeToWander 3 points4 points ago

Shhh. This is what they wanted you to ask.

[–]coldwarjunkie 18 points19 points ago

Why hasn't Colbert warned us about this number one threat to America: bear cubs that masquerade as adorable puppies?

[–]TheThingToSay 9 points10 points ago

Haha...mildly related: My brother has a full grown dog that looks like a German Shepherd but like 1/10th the size. It's amazing how many people would believe me/him when we said he was a coyote pup we found a few weeks ago.

[–]Gringostar87 10 points11 points ago

That's a dog?

[–]phildawgseverin 9 points10 points ago

My dad has always wanted a baby bear. He watches them on TV all the time. I really want to get him a dog that looks similar to a bear. I know its stupid but this is something he has always wanted.

[–]MexicanFightingSquid 8 points9 points ago

His dad was one hell of a brave dog.

[–]ibetthathurt 21 points22 points ago

Oh God... it's so fluffy!

[–]NataLand 8 points9 points ago

[–]ffsnametaken 6 points7 points ago

[–]kcharris 4 points5 points ago

That's an amazing looking dog, happy that you have all found each other!

[–]pnwgirl 4 points5 points ago

I did a double-take. I thought it was a bear cub. Very cute bear puppy. What breed is it?

[–]mtx 5 points6 points ago

Does it eat honey and picnic baskets?

[–]WazaWazaWaza 4 points5 points ago

What breed? It's like the CUTEST thing!

[–]shibalover19 4 points5 points ago

I love your bear cub, I mean dog. I read the story about her adoption. You and your girlfriend are wonderful people. You two deserve to be the proud owners of the cutest dog in the world.

[–]slambient[S] 4 points5 points ago

[–]Fartknuckle 8 points9 points ago

I used have a puppy that looked just like that when I was a kid. I named him oso. Spanish for bear. He bit someone so my stepdad shot him...I shouldn't comment when I've been drinking

[–]GluonJetPilot 3 points4 points ago

I could bear-ly tell it was a dog.

[–]eamantite 14 points15 points ago

Not sure if bear cub
or puppy

[–]hzrd 2 points3 points ago

what breed?

[–]slambient[S] 3 points4 points ago

we're not entirely sure. we were told german shepherd/akita/corgi. we never saw the parents.

those breeds seem like they could be correct because of her features/size. she's about three months old in the original picture.

[–]katzenjammer360 5 points6 points ago

I definitely see Shepherd. I'd guess Newfie in there somewhere, too. Maybe that's the Akita I see, but she looks a lot like a newf to me. Guess you'll see by how big she gets!

[–]random11111111 2 points3 points ago

I bet you broke its chair, drank its soup, broke its bed, and its family caught you in their house after they came from their walk.

[–]Jernaree 1 point2 points ago

give me it

[–]silversey 2 points3 points ago

Your pup is ridiculously precious. Good for you and your girlfriend for all that you've done for her, and I hope you all have a very happy future together!

[–]squidvicious5 2 points3 points ago

What breed is this wolfbear puppy?

[–]paperbanjo 2 points3 points ago

If you named it Bear, it'd be the only dog in the world with the name Bear who actually deserves to have that name.

If she isn't spayed find some similar dog and breed her. Must make MORE!!! Reddits own breed of dog, Karma Hound!!! (silvermoon12 naming credit in this thread, I don't look at many comments for animal pics, but this is Reddit so someone probably came up with that years ago)

[–]Geneoaf 1 point2 points ago

I really though this was a bear until coming to the comments. I only read "meet my little bear cub" and then clicked on the picture. I really should start reading the whole titles.

[–]staywhatyouarekp 1 point2 points ago

It's an animorph, just you wait when it's in its human form things will get real awkward.

You need to loan your pup to a little girl dressed up as Merida (from Brave) for Halloween.
