See? We're not weirdos for throwing birthday pawties for our doggo. We love doing it. Every year, we get them a rotisserie chicken, mix it with some of their favorite wet food, and let them go to town for their special day every year. We also invite our favorite hooman friends (who love to give our doggo all the love she deserves) and we throw them a birthday bash. But, it turns out that not everyone has so many guests to invite to their doggo's birthday pawty, so one pawrent took matters into his own hands by printing our flyers and posting them in a local park.

It could have been a total flop… but it wasn't! Over 40 people and their doggos showed up to the event, turning the lonely gathering into the most wholesome celebration on this side of the internet. We've got pictures of the birthday boy, some attendees, and a fancy dog cake that even makes our mouths water. Scroll down to see it all below, it's certainly the cutest thing you'll see today.

    Hallo! Ich bin Alori ein 2-jähriger Hund mit großem Herz und fast keinen Freunden. Diesen Freitag (25.4) um 17:00 Uhr schmeiße ich mir selbst eine Party-direkt gegenüber vom Hundegarten! Es gibt Hundekuchen, Schwanzwedeln und mich, wie ich so tue, als wäre ich beliebt. Komm vorbei und mach das Ganze weniger traurig. Ich versuch auch, nicht zu viel zu bellen. Hi! I'm Elori a 2-year-old dog with a big heart and almost no friends. This Friday (25.4) at 5PM, I'm throwing myself a party across from t

  • Is that a handmade card? We don't even get handmade cards on our birthdays. We don't even get any cards (or presents) at all. This doggo is living a better life than we are…. and we're more than a little jealous.

    As promised, I had to deliver went to Alori's birthday party. I met Alori, his dog sibling, his lovely owners (the girl on the first picture, pictured with Alori, me and my personal cute companion), around 40 people (some who saw the original flyers, but also some redditors)

  • See? Doesn't that cake look really good? It's so colorful and well-decorated. Our cakes are either made hastily in the oven with one layer and some frosting, or store-bought. We wish our friends would make us a cake like this! (Minus the dog treats, obviously)

    and around 20 dogs. Alori seemed to be having a great time with his new friends and enjoyed the dog treat cake and a hand-made birthday card. It was a wholesome meeting with great weather and I'd be happy to attend Alori's 4th birthday in a year again.

    By the way, the owners were slightly aware of the reddit post, but not how big it got.
