Toby the Dog and Sheila the Duck: A Really Strange Relationship

By Alex in Animals & Pets, Video Clips on Nov 23, 2008 at 1:35 pm

This YouTube video is about Toby the dog and Sheila the duck who adopted him at the Mac Kenzie farm. The video, first spotted at Cute Overload, has gone viral because of the sheer WTF-ishness of it (is that a word? No? It should be!).

The video is subtitled in Spanish, but you really don’t need to speak a whit of Spanish to understand what happened. And be prepared to be amazed: Hit play or go to Link [YouTube]

Update 11/24/08 – It’s a viral ad by an Argentinian ISP called Arnet – Thanks Demian!

    I’m not gonna lie, it made me cry, it made me laugh, it made me a little queasy.

    Well, I’m glad I read the comments before watching this, because I do Love animal stories but something told me I should read the comments before viewing. Whew…watching this just might have ruined my night.

    Like the dudes above said… touched, amused, disturbed.
    Geez, it’s ok to taxiderm the duck… but the lady running and pulling the duck like that… I’m really glad the adoptive mother is not a horse!

    I saw this on Cute Overload first and was just… shocked. Very cute until she’s pulling it along at the end! I’m like WTF, couldn’t they have put wheels on it or something!?! LOL

    That really is quite a WTF? video. It starts all cute, then taxidermy!? Those ad-makers are some crazy people. I liked the part where the bill fell off…

    Wow, that was brilliant. In like 30 seconds you go from so many different/opposite emotions, it’s amazing. Watching it a second time makes you realize even more how brilliant and calculated/planned it was. I’m impressed by whoever did this. Obviously it’s not to be taken seriously, but I guess not everyone can understand or enjoy this kind of humor.

    A male duck named Sheila? I’m not an animal expert, but I thought female mallards are brown.
