Upsidedowndogs.com is one of the strangest sites I've seen in some time. I have no idea how these people got their dogs to be upside down, or why. posted by HaloMan at 6:20 PM on October 21, 2008 [5 favorites]
Meh...I guess I'm just a lolcat person.

I should like to offer a dissent over which Cartesian axis these canines are rotated; to wit, I believe they are in fact supine... posted by Tube at 6:21 PM on October 21, 2008 [2 favorites]

"Roll over! C'mon, roll over! DASAGOODDOGGY! WHOSAGOODDOGGY?!"
or why.
During the vast majority of canine evolution, dogs were standing up. Floppy ears, pendulous jowls, and facial folds that would normally be hanging down due to gravity are transmuted into a puddle of dawg humor by rolling over. posted by CKmtl at 6:42 PM on October 21, 2008 [1 favorite]

Cute, thanks! posted by amyms at 7:10 PM on October 21, 2008
My dog refuses to go upside down. He hunkers down clings to the earth with his nails like nobodies business. I think he can actually increase his specific gravity at will. Roll over. Come on. I want to take a funny picture of you. Please. Roll over. C'mon. ROLL.

<humorless pedant>Of course, the upside down dog is in a submissive position, so we're inclined to think it's cute, as it means the dog is submitting.</humorless pedant>
... but I wish I thought of it first. This is why the web can still be fun and pointless.

Yeah, it took me a few seconds, but as soon as I figured out it wasn't part of the page but a banner ad, I simultaneously thought, "how annoying," and, "that's effective advertising." Still, sneaky and a bit deceptive. posted by krinklyfig at 7:14 PM on October 21, 2008

Are you smarter than an upside down dog? posted by Devils Rancher at 7:20 PM on October 21, 2008
I turned my cat upside down. Nobody was smiling then, though there were teeth involved. posted by louche mustachio at 7:30 PM on October 21, 2008
My old dog always used to love getting her stomach scratched. When I came home, she would automatically roll over on her back and refuse to move--no matter how inconvenient her location--until she was scratched thoroughly.
I thought this might end up with lipstick on a pitb... oh sheesh.
Thanks for the smile } posted by Cedric at 7:40 PM on October 21, 2008
Amusing, but they're no LOLcats.

When Good Dogs Go and Crossbreed
Malamute + Pointer =
Moot Point, owned by....oh, well, it doesn't matter anyway
Cocker Spaniel + Rottweiller =
Cockrot, the perfect puppy for that philandering ex-husband
Bull Terrier + Shitzu =
Bullshitz, a gregarious but unreliable breed posted by netbros at 8:13 PM on October 21, 2008
They do all this to compensate for the fact that they can't look up.

Mine lolled around in the back yard ridiculously and looked an awful lot like the second dog down. I say mine since he kinda was but he was really my parents' and I haven't been back to visit since he died. Christmas is going to hurt a little this year. posted by Tehanu at 8:22 PM on October 21, 2008
While not knowing what to expect, I did not expect this. And, with that surprise factor in play, this is one of the weirdest, freakiest thing I've seen on the web in years. And I smiled.
And: 'ja ever play the game where you have a staring contest, no blinking, and you know the part where your opponent's face starts to get all weird 'cuz you haven't blinked? Try that game with one person upside down, say, on a couch. You. will. be. freaked. posted by not_on_display at 10:35 PM on October 21, 2008

Am I the only one who was completely freaked out by these pictures. Those are some freaky-looking dogs. This was real David Lynch walking-talking-backward territory for me. posted by Kattullus at 10:53 AM on October 22, 2008 [1 favorite]
