At this point, we're pretty sure that everyone agrees on the fact that dogs are just… delightful. It's as if they exist in our lives only to make us happy. Dogs are adorable without even trying. They just lie there, with their bellies up, asleep and drooling, and we are right there next to them, awwing. Dogs are funny without knowing that they are. They just do stuff, whatever makes them happy, and sometimes, they end up making us laugh. All of that is known. But what we think people don't talk about enough is how determined dogs are.

And sure, we see that determination sometimes when dogs protect their humans or when they try to sneakily grab a piece of salami off our plates, but we think the best - and cutest - way of showcasing how determined dogs are is with this thread… a thread about a dog who climbed all the way to the top of the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt just because he felt like barking at some birds from a little closer that day.

It's a good day in the world when a story about a doggo climbing to the top of the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt goes viral. We cannot even explain how happy this video made us. So pure, so wholesome… sometimes, you just gotta go as high as you can and bark at birds, man.

And for everyone seeing this picture who are worried about the dog coming back down from the pyramid… don't be. It seems that the way down was even easier than the way up. This delightful doggo was simply living his best life that day.
