dogs

Hooo boy, it is so close to being summer, we can practically hear the incessant song of the ice cream truck already. Frankly we don't want to wait until Monday to kick off the season. We can't. We've lost all control. Here are some pics of animals in kiddie pools to prove it.

Even in the face of unspeakable tragedy, miracles can occur.

Dog and jokes! Dogs and jokes! Good memes happen when you combine dogs and jokes! With that in mind, we proudly bring you the best of the First World Dog Problems meme. These poor dogs -- they think they have it so rough (ruff? Ugh. sorry).

CalArts student Madeline Sharafian made this to show how meaningful it is to cook for somebody you love. In this case it at least means nobody chops off their fingers because their exhausted.

Achieving a perfectly-timed picture is tricky stuff, because it doesn’t usually happen on purpose. But when these photos are done right, the result is Web G-O-L-D.

There's nothing surprising about our pets getting into shenanigans when we're not looking. Sometimes we find the little buggers in the act, and what results is adorably hilarious. But other times, we're not lucky enough to catch them red-handed, although their guilty expressions totally allude to trouble.

Maybe it's not okay to laugh at the misery of others, but would you just look at how much this corgi hates wearing a panda costume? It is hilarious.

It's been a particularly rough week, so we thought we'd try to cheer everyone up with a few of the cutest dog GIFs ever. These dogs are heart-meltingly cute and are sure to brighten up even the darkest days. They'll make you just want to cuddle up and smile! Have a safe weekend everyone!

Well, the dogs don't seem particularly unhappy, so we guess this is okay. As long as dogs don't understand what dignity is, they'll probably be fine. Owners in China have been stuffing their dogs into stocking and high heels, taking pictures of them, and putting them on the internet, because this is the world we live in now. Since you know you secretly want to see more of these, here you go: Read

This is not a joke. A man at the largest outdoor bazaar in Buenos Aires bought two toy poodles from a vendor for $150 each. Only he didn't actually buy two poodles. He actually bought two ferrets that were hopped up on steroids and given fancy hairdos so they would look like poodles.

Domino, a dog at the 'Pets Fur People' animal shelter in Tyler, Texas can talk. Well, that's what some of the employees of the shelter believe.

Welp, it's official. This dog's life is more exciting than ours. He's wakeboarding. He can do back flips. He got on a skateboard and didn't break his collarbone. He is officially the coolest dog ever. But that's not the best part.

Ladies and gents, it’s time for another round of entertaining fails. Recently we’ve scoped out the really unfortunate and the semi-painful type of fail. But this time around, we’re going for the straight up adorable, AKA puppy fails.

Meet my little 7-year-old buddy, Baxter. He is the happiest, most good-hearted dog I've ever known. As soon as you walk in the door, he will greet you with a smile and make you feel like you're the most important person in the world.
