Nintendo Switch Puppy Plush: Canine Console

The Nintendo Switch is the company’s highly anticipated new game console. While lots of folks are just excited by its gameplay possibilities, other fans are already creating fan art based on the theory that the controller looks like the head of a cute dog. That’s why @TheAnnaTheRed created this hilarious plush toy.

You have to admit, this plush is downright adorable. I bet Nintendo is sad that they didn’t think of it first. This would have been one heck of an official mascot for the new device. It’s awesome. Plus they could have sold a ton of these toys.

You can take it for a walk, play games, and cuddle it in bed on cold nights. It really is the perfect console.

You Will Love This: Puppytext Lets You Type in Puppy-Style

Puppytext Site

What’s not to like about puppies? They’re cute, they’re adorable, and most of all, they’re incredibly cuddly. You could probably even manage to cheer up even the moodiest of grouches by showing him an image or two of puppies in all their fuzzy splendor.

It really doesn’t come as much of a surprise, then, that puppies now have their own font. I’m not talking about paw prints or caricatures of puppies packed into a Wingdings font. Rather, I’m talking about Puppytext, which features photographs of a litter of puppies positioned into various letters and characters for your typing pleasure. It’s not an actual font file in the strict sense of the word, since you can get your fill of puppy-filled text by heading over to the Puppytext website or getting its iPhone app which is priced at $1.29.

Go on, try it out. I know you want to.

Orapup Promises to Get Rid of Your Dog’s Doggy Breath

Orapup

Love your pets like you love your kids? Then you’ll probably want to hear all about the Orapup, which is a doggy tongue cleaner that promises to combat bad doggy breath by getting rid of it, right at the source.

Most people brush their teeth and scrape their tongues every day, but some of them still end up with pretty nasty breath. So you can’t really blame your canine pals for having less-than-stellar breath since they can’t brush and all. While there are a ton of doggy toothbrushes available, there’s only one pet tongue cleaner that I’ve heard of so far–and that’s the Orapup.

If you’ve ever tried brushing your dog’s teeth, then you know it could end up being quite the chore, especially since you have to hold them down and make them stay still while you brush. The cool thing about the Orapup is that you don’t need to hold them down, because it’s been designed to clean your pooch’s tongue in the easiest way possible: by having them lick it.

Hit the jump to check out a video featuring the Orapup, as well as links on how you can get one for yourself!

Orapup

All you have to do is squeeze a dollop of the beef flavored gel that comes with the Orapup. Aside from motivating your dog to lick away at the Orapup, the gel contains natural enzymes to neutralize your dog’s mouth and fight tartar at the same time. The bristles on the Orapup itself are made from ultra-soft material that brushes over and in-between the dog’s teeth to give it a good cleaning. In between the bristles are also four scrapers that collect the grime and bacteria that the bristles have managed to loosen up.

Orapup is currently up for funding on Indiegogo, where a minimum pledge of $10 will get you one Orapup in a random color, five flavor packs, and two Orabrushes for humans.
