Stupid Pet Tricks on Letterman, March 29, 1984
By request. With Stacy Darden, Jim Audubon, Linda Weber, and Alaine Lombardo. The dog, Lady, doing "push-ups" was shown again when Dave guested on The Tonight Show the following week. That clip is here; • Video
From E!'s February 23, 1995, broadcast.

Crazy to think that today, in 2023, that turtle is the only one that may still be alive and still be living in a sink in the basement.

i was just thinking i would do some tricks for her. ESPECIALLY then when i was 12.
Great how courteous and grateful Dave is to the ‘contestants’ for their participation in his shenanigans.
i dont think one of these pet segments ever made me feel as bad for the animals before as this one did. that poor cat just getting twisted and yanked all around, the ferret getting sick then no one cleaning it up as they are still up there wandering around, then that poor turtle confined to a god damn sink for decades.
We had a turtle for like 10 years when I was a kid... his name was Elvis and we found him in the woods in Mississippi... but then my dad let my brother take him and he lost him about a week later... but a few years ago, my mom was driving home from Mississippi back to Utah, and whilst crossing the river at Vicksburg, saw another turtle crossing the road about to get run over so she stopped and picked him up and brought him back to Utah I have been taking care of him ever since lol his name is Frank n I built him a little cage in my backyard for the summertime and he lives inside during winter

Pretty funny to see the bewildered reaction to owning ferrets as pets in the 80s! Not that they've become ubiquitous but I feel that most people would at least be able to recognize the species nowadays.

My first thought when she said about her turtle, "He stands on his hind legs," was, "like Gamera??"
Is that Phillies hat that the cat wore, one of those that you used to get DQ sundaes in? I've never seen a dog do pushups before. That was hilarious. That turtle wouldn't be able to self-right would he? I thought Dave was going to ask, does the turtle puke?

Thought he was going to say that when the lady walked out he wanted to do some push ups aswell
For me it's the alow motion replay!
That kind of push up is weird 😂
push-ups lol
That first cat looked abused 😢
The cat is just lazy. Turtle delivered.
I'd rename the trick to rolling over...

Poor cat scared to move 🤦
gamera never looked so good.
Becsuse weasels don't smell bad enough.

My cat can lay down and sleep. And I don’t think that dog was doing push-ups at all.
Charlie is the turtle's first name. I'd be willing to bet his last name is McConnell.
