Here’s my Thanksgiving gift to you: Shiba Inu puppies in real time!
You probably know about these little celebrities by now…they’ve been in all the magazines and on all the major news networks. In case they’ve somehow escaped you, here’s a little background:
A San Francisco couple (who wish to remain anonymous) put the live stream of their new litter on UStream, presumably for prospective adopters to view. UStream CEO John Ham said in a MSNBC interview that his employees discovered the stream when there were just a couple of viewers, thought it was engaging and adorable, and passed along to their friends and families. The appeal was clearly universal and the feed went viral almost overnight. Ham reports 4 million views in a single week, in fact! And nobody’s even making any money of of this!
The good news is that all the puppies have found adoptive homes and UStream has arranged for each pup to go to their new home with their own webcam so they can be followed as they grow up! Because, let’s face it: If you’ve grown attached to these little cuties, you’re gonna feel it when that kennel is suddenly empty (about 2 weeks from now).
In the meantime, enjoy them right here or on UStream! If they’re sleeping when you arrive, check back later! They’re so cool when they’re at play!
