Howdy, animal fam, and happy weekend! We made it to the weekend on pure willpower and espresso shots, so we're excited to take some time to kick our shoes off, put our paws up, and relax for a while. Well, we would do that, if we didn't have a doggo at home that needed to go out and play every five minutes. Our puppy is absolutely awwdorable, but man, is she a handful! We can't get mad at her though, especially when we see how happy she is just to have us home.

If you've ever had a dog, you have experienced the joy of seeing how happy your pupper gets just by being in your presence. Their tails wag in helicopter mode, they start scooching in for some snuggles, or maybe they get so excited that they race around the house with zoomies. Their happiness is purely powered by their love for us, so we can't let them down by staying inside all day. 

The wholesome dog memes in this listicle are powered by the pure pupper love puppies have for their pawrents, so let's zoomie into a heartwarming weekend with our doggos by our sides. Enjoy!

    Friend-shaped, but not friend

    The American Howling Retriever is a breed of dog with extremely coyote like features. In fact, the only difference between it and a common coyote is my refusal to ever admit I've made a mistake and all the benadryl I keep giving it so it won't maul me.
