  1. Love this! I also like how it looks like Julie is pinching her arm at the end, as if to make sure she’s not dreaming? I am definitely TEAM NACHO.

  2. this was the best minute of my day and it’s 11:33pm so i’ve lived a lot of minutes today

    this was the best minute of my day

      • Why should Triple D get to stomp around like a giant while the rest of us try not to get smushed under her big FEET?

        • Generally I tend to let people who are named/ who have triple D’s do anything they damn well please.

  3. when i had a blackberry my phone used to yell TYYYRAA MAIIILLLLLLL (AHHHHHHHHH!) every time i got a picture message. i miss those days. i wish someone would send me pictures of nacho. i wish someone would give me nachos but then i will have to be a plus side model and miss jay will give me attitude about my signature walk in panel. oh, cute dog.

  4. Coming home from a shitty 5 hour class to Nacho cuteness pretty much made my night. One of my cats yelps like that all the damn time, and it’s not cute at all.

  5. I just fell asleep for like three hours and woke up and watched this. Now I’m going back to sleep immediately and there’s a 78% chance I’ll dream about this dog. I’ll keep you posted.

  6. um ok so i had a chihuahua for not long enough…. i miss and love him. THIS VIDEO WARMS MY HEART AND SOUL

  7. “YOU’RE PERFECT NACHO.”

    In other news, now I need to cross “Dog howling in response to Tyra Mail” off the list of possible film thesis ideas. Julie & Brandy are always one step ahead.

  8. I’ve never had a puppy before, but I’ve successfully kept a plant alive for nearly a year, so!

    When I get a puppy I hope it smiles with it’s eyes too. That is a skill that takes you places for sure.

  9. So true story, Autostraddle is blocked at my new job under the filter “mature content” (read: lesbosexy). Coming home to videos and comment threads like this make it all okay. This whole fucking thread is a comment award. Let’s be honest. You all rock.

  10. Oh, um … nevermind the PS I put on the #4 BtS. This video almost made me admit to liking dogs.
