I must admit that I'm completely smitten by this adorable video of a 2-1/2-week-old golden retriever pup being trained to whistle. This is the oldest version of the video I could find, uploaded by Maurarox about a year ago, but for some reason a lot of people seem to be rediscovering (and reposting) this clip. (Anyone know why that's happening now?) At any rate -- enjoy!
