For all of you who've spent endless, sleepless nights wondering what what it's like to be Bernie bin Laden, your long wait is over. Thanks to the magic of video, you can finally see the world through the soon-to-be-infamous "Bernie cam," and experience all the mayhem of his existence from his point of view for three glorious, insanity-filled minutes.
Now you too can relive the horror of Bernie over and over again until your brain finally melts. Because if my wife and I have to, so do you. So check out the video below if you dare. And if your modem can handle it, click on the number at the lower right of the video window and select the "720 HD" option. Evil always looks better in high-def. Motion sickness pills optional, body armor recommended.
OMD!!! That was hysterical! I'm a little dizzy, and totally exhausted, so I guess it's a good thing that it's midnight and bedtime. (I'm also kinda regretting the cocktail or three I had this evening.) Bernie, you are one wild child!
Sadie is my 9yr old Rott/Shepherd mix. Diagnosed with osteosarcoma in her right scapula 1/28/10. Our brave girl had her amputation 2/13/10 and her last chemotherapy on 6/6/10. Unfortunately, a tumor appeared in her back right leg and on 10/7/2010 Sadie's earthly journey came to an end. On 10/24/2010 we adopted Ranger, a handsome Rott/Lab mix tripawd (got hit by a car) I think Sadie sent him to us.

Wow, that is awesome! I don't think I have ever had that much energy, I wish I did. I also wish you could harness Mr. B's power and energy. I bet you wouldn't have any more of those "rolling brown outs" or whatever they were called in California. My brain went into overload just watching him! Linda almost got her battleship sunk a couple of times 🙂
Elizabeth and Sammy
Diagnosed with osteosarcoma in the right front leg 8/23/10,

leg amputated 8/30/10

I couldn't begin to say how special Sammy is to us. Living and laughing with and loving this wonderful boy is priceless.
we love 'bernie cam'!!! this was just too hysterical - exhausted from laughing and trying to imagine 24/7 of bernie bin ladin. thanks for a great way to start the day!!
charon & gayle
Life is good, so very, very good!!! Gayle enjoyed each and every moment of each and every wonderful day (naps included). She left this world December 12, 2011 – off on a new adventure.
Love Never Ends
Bernie cam is awesome!!!
Having witnessed BBL in person a couple of times I can say that that video is truly accurate!
I've thought about a pug cam.... we could use the video for those with insomnia as 70% of it would be motionless with a snoring sound track 
.

p.s. really nice editing job John!
Bernie Cam was so much fun to watch - OK a little dizzying as well. I laughed so hard.
We can't wait to see the next installment of Bernie fun.
Glad to see Bernie was not hurt - hope everyone else has time to recover before the next video 
I am definitely going to have to share this with my dog-loving family. I'm thinking Bernie may go viral.
I LOVE Bernie. He's SO cute!! If he would hold still long enough, I'd love to give him a big hug and a kiss on his beautiful face. (His body type reminds me of Abby.)
Do you have any idea what kind of dog he is?
Jackie, Abby's mom
Abby: Aug 1, 2009 – Jan 10, 2012. Our beautiful rescue pup lived LARGE with osteosarcoma for 15 months – half her way-too-short life. I think our "halflistic" approach (mixing traditional meds + supplements) helped her thrive. (PM me for details. I'm happy to help.) She had lung mets for over a year. They took her from us in the end, but they cannot take her spirit! She will live forever in our hearts. She loved the beach and giving kisses and going to In-N-Out for a Flying Dutchman.

Hi Jackie. Our best guess is an australian shepherd/collie mix, but that's really just a guess. A lot of people who've seen him in person think he has some greyhound in him, because of his body shape. We did the DNA test on him when we first got him, and it said he had those two breeds, plus Pekingnese in him. So who knows?! (And for anyone who's reading this, save yourself the $70 and don't do the DNA test; clearly there is no Pekingnese in Bernie, unless he ate one just before we swabbed him.)
And if you'd like to give our boy a big hug and kiss, we can arrange that. Bernie would LOVE to spend a weekend in San Diego! We'll send him down on the train! 
I love Bernie Cam too! Watching his "extra high energy" I realize that my 2 young pups of 4 1/2 months are really quite mellow compared to Bernie. Thanks for the laugh - always good to start the week off with some fun.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA! Zowey Powey! H-e-l-l-o Halloween....where's my Dramamine???
I didn't dare watch it in HD...it would be like riding the Bernie Tilt-O-Whirl!
LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! Keep 'em coming!
Comet - 1999 to 2011
She departed us unexpectedly January 23, 2011 at the age of 12 1/2.
She was born with a deformed front leg and a tripawd all of her life.
I watched it in HD and definitely experienced a little vertigo! However, I can't say I wasn't warned. I want to plug my phone into my home theater and watch it on that! It would save me lots of money by not going to disneyland.
