These Cuddly Pups Remind Us Why Dogs Are Man’s Best Friend

When I was young, I was terrified of dogs.

No one really knows why. Maybe because the whole neighborhood had Labradors who would chase me and knock me down.

They thought we were playing. I thought I was dinner.

Eventually, because my sister wanted one, I agreed that we could get a dog if it was a little one, and we soon welcomed a terrier pup into the family.

Now, as an adult, I love doggos. (I still don’t love Labs though. Sorry most popular breed on the planet.)

There’s just nothing quite like a dog to bring a smile to your face.

Here are 16 of the best doggos that ever graced the internet.

1. Live from Puppy Camp

I’ve frankly never seen a happier camper.

2. The name’s Melon. Super Melon.

Here to rescue all your summer cookouts, picnics, and play dates.

No one cared who I was until I put on the mask from aww

3. Now that’s a giant dog I could learn to love

Because what kid wouldn’t want a life-sized (and living!) teddy bear?

Some images require no title, just a smile. from aww

4. File under “Things you didn’t know were possible”

That is one gorgeous pup.

5. That little puppy wanted to be his Number One

And Sir Pat Stew said, “Make it so!”

6. Sounds like the perfect compromise!

I want to give him all the skritches.

7. Wild Bill is a very good pet parent

And that heeler is a very good girl.

My 11yr old dog is blind but still loves hiking so I got her doggles to protect her eyes from sticks from aww

8. Besties

It’s good to have a big best friend.

This cat from my neighborhood always protects his little dog friend and I thought this picture can brighten up someone’s day:) from aww

9. OG in the house

She has aged well. She doesn’t look a day over 12.

10. So many friendly interpretations to unpack

a) Did you bring my friend a friend?
b) Do you need a friend to keep you company?
c) Can you take this friend to my other friend across town?
d) Whatcha doing, friend?

I’m an Amazon delivery driver and was greeted by this today. from aww

11. Use the force, Pup

What an absolute glamor shot!

12. Twinsies and BFFs 4EVR

It’s good to feel loved by a bestie.

10 Golden Retriever Puppies Enjoyed a Purple Dragon Reading to Them at Storytime

I’m gonna go on the record about something that I feel very strongly about.

I’m talking about Golden Retrievers. I don’t care if you think they are boring, generic dogs that only suburban soccer moms have. I’m here to tell you that they are one of the most gentle, loving, and all-around outstanding dog breeds out there.

Okay, now that I’ve said my peace, it’s time to move on to the story!

A totally adorable litter of ten Golden Retriever puppies sat and watched (they’re also well-behaved) as a robotic Dalton the Storytelling Dragon read to them in Redlands, California.

And it’s not the first time it’s happened either. Here’s another litter of Goldens getting into the reading spirit with Dalton.

Dalton the story telling dragon made his first appearance for the “Sweetheart” litter tonight! #sunnydreamsgoldens #daltonthestorytellingdragon #sweetheartlitter #hudsonxgidgetpups🐾 #goldenretrieversofinstagram #puppyvideosofinstagram #cutestpuppies #puppiesatstorytime #puppyluv

Don’t they seem totally enthralled by the story?

Hey, these dogs like fairy tales, what else can you say?

This is all going down at a place called SunnyDreams Goldens, in case you wondering, because I know I was! If it was closer to me, I’d be making a trip there to meet and possibly buy a couple of these pooches.

Enjoy this video and just try to tell me that isn’t one of the most adorable things you’ve ever seen in your life.

I told you it was freaking adorable!

And now we want to hear from all the readers out there.

We’re all about the cute and fuzzy animals here, so we want you to do us a big favor: in the comments, share some wholesome and heartwarming videos, photos, and stories about animals that you think we’ll love.

Thank you in advance!

This Is Why Your Dog Eats Grass

Dogs like to eat a lot of weird stuff. Technically, this is called “pica,” which is eating things that aren’t food, and most dogs engage in this behavior.

Although grass isn’t a particular favorite of my pup, many dogs do like to chomp on it from time to time.

Your dog may be attracted to grass for a few reasons, and it’s not inherently dangerous unless you treat your lawn with chemicals.

One reason they might munch on your lawn is that they have an upset tummy. Grass is a purgative, which means it makes them throw up. If their stomach is feeling upset, they might want to get whatever’s bothering them out of their system ASAP, and grass is one way to do that.

Some also suspect dogs eat grass because they’re technically omnivores. They might want to occasionally add some plant material to their diet, and that’s one way to do it.

Surprisingly little research has been done on why dogs eat grass. It could be dietary, or it could be due to boredom or stress, depending on the situation.

But… should you worry?

For the most part, if your dog’s eating grass, she’s probably fine. If you notice that your pup is eating a lot more grass than usual, though, you may want to take her to the vet just to be on the safe side.

If you notice other signs your dog isn’t feeling well, then you definitely should visit your vet.
