Going to work is one of the hardest things that we have to do in life. The hours are long, the work is woeful and worst of all we have to spend serious hours away from our cute canine children. Thoughts of freeing ourselves from work start to stream into those of playing in the park with your pupper, making them all the more powerful and painful to think about when you know that you have to be bound to your desk for the next five hours. But there is a way to ease these frustrating feelings, and that is with a delightful and highly heartwarming dog meme list like the one we have put together for you today. A pawfect blend of pawdorable puppers of all sorts and sizes to satisfy even the most specific of canine cravings.

  • Whether it is the combination of celebrities and canines that gets your soul stirring, or the simplicity of a delightful doggo marvelling at Xmas lights, or you are all about cool canines pushing the limits of what it means to be a dog and what they are capable of. We have got what you need to feel a little less far from your fur baby who is hopefully awaiting your return patiently.

    Rescue dogs need to be spoiled to the point where they never remember the times they weren't loved.
    via idratherbewithmydog

  • A pawfect way to put it. Because that is what a darling dog child will do for us anyway. Much like how we are smitten with hooman babies, a dog child will show us love like we have never experienced before. So the least we can do is to give them a life the likes of which they have never even dreamed of.

    Is your human a rescue too? Yeah, she's got some issues, but we're working through them. I love her so much.

  • We are all rescues in one way or another. Especially when we bring a doting doggo into our lives, it is hard to deny that their endearing qualities rub off on us and help heal certain parts of our soul that we did not even know were broken. It is probably why we want them to be around us all the time, tis a shame this world is not more dog friendly.
