Some of you may already be fans, but if you don't know about the Shiba Inu puppies in San Francisco (the first bunch went viral in 2008 when their raisers shone a webcam on them in order to watch them from work), well, you should, because it is very relaxing to watch puppies on your computer if/when you can. Kika the Shiba Inu mother dog just had her third litter, and on M-F you can watch them via this link:

I offer this because honestly, I find it very soothing. And it's all the better because the humans are not in it for money or fame -- they never appear on camera except as hands and feet taking care of the dogs.

I honestly love having them up in a little window on my computer. I'll be working away and then think, "hey, what are the puppies doing?" and check in. The human Mr. and Mrs. Shiba sometimes put the volume on (and more so as the puppies grow older) so if you can, leave the volume on and then you hear little squeaks!
