At first glance I thought your intriguing animation was a black raccoon from the way it was running, when it was *only* a shapeshifting dog. Either one would get my full attention out where the tall grass grows.

Oh, gods, I love it! Well done!
I saw this before; 'twas great!
My, what a large... tongue you have, Althouse.
Wow, Chip. Color me impressed!
Great. And what a relief that the dog is smiling in close up.
I love it, especially the slobbering finale. Thanks Chip.

Count me in the "love it" group.
Something tells me that Holly got a treat and some scratches behind her ears when Meade saw this.
Very nice!
Smiling? - looks more like he/she is on the hunt, to each his own
(1) She's a good girl!
(2) Well done, as always, Chip. Thanks.
(3) Woof!
I needed a lift today, and that did it! Superb!
Chip; always amazing!
The Chipster has created another performance art winner. He needs to be a part of a DVD of Althouse Revisited to be issued soon.
Very nice job, Chip. It's got that back-and-forth drama with the big finish. I think she's smiling too. Woof!
Perhaps more "Look at me! Look at me, dad!"
"Be berry qwiet -- we're hunting Awlthouses!"
Which is much more fun than hunting owls' houses!

Great job, Chip. :)

Kind of reminds me of that old Commodore 64 game "Forbidden Forest":

An influence?
