Jake, left, and Windy take a break from watching television.

Windy, Jake and I were watching Too Cute: Puppies on Animal Planet last night.

The show followed the births of litters of Golden Retrievers, Labrador Retrievers and Shih Tzus. Cuteness abounded with the babies growing to the weaning stage. All of the labs were destined for guide dog school, the goldens went to homes, except for a showgirl-in-training, and the Shih Tzus went to new owners.

Windy was especially attentive to the sounds of the puppies. Each whimper she heard caused her to lift her head and stare at the television. I wondered if she remembered the litters she had while she was with her other owner.

So, search your TV listings for when Too Cute: Puppies will be re-broadcast. To inoculate yourself against the cuteness: Remember what an 8-week-old puppy does during your sleep cycle.
