MY PUPPIES, LET ME SHOW YOU THEM

ITEM [via YesButNoButYes]: Two filmmakers have put together a film documenting the “pulling power” of puppies.

That’s “pulling” in the British sense i.e. attracting the attention of nice young ladies.

Trailer follows.


METHODOLOGY:
They selected five puppies: a Border Collie, Pug, Samoyed, Staffy and Yorkie and mounted a Sony Ericsson cameraphone to their collars. Then they went to the park and waited for women to go SQUEEEEEEEE! The phones took photos as each woman approached. Then they calculated the number of photographs taken in a one-hour period.

RESULTS: Samoyeds and pugs are your best pulling value.

FULL DISCLOSURE: Financed by Sony Ericsson.

DISCLAIMER:
Possibly not a real study. It could in fact be a viral marketing video for Sony Ericsson. Or an excuse to take lots of cleavage shots. Or perhaps both.

Either way, Jerry Lawler would approve, I'm sure.

Show me the puppies,

This is dF

I'm surprised that Match.com doesn't offer a pet rental option

The same point was raised in the movie "Marley and Me" (one of my backlog!) and I think it's very valid. I mean, your boyfriend has been to be approved by your dog, right? :P
