Woof, woof, the weekend is here and with is nearing summer there is a very good chance that your mind has been moving more and more towards adopting a darling doggo. Because what better buddy is there for the summer (and for life) than a doting doggo who just wants to get outside and have non-stop fun in the sun. So we figured that we would do our part to push you in the direction of your nearest animal shelter with this collection of tempting canine treats, that should have you running, not walking, to your nearest shelter.

So we recommend you get your shoes on and have your house keys in your hand along with any other documentation needed to adopt a dog. Because there is no telling what the doggo derived deliciousness of this list could do to you, and when it will kick in. we wish you well, and a life full of wholesome happiness with your pupper.

  • Literally, what are you doing, get your jacket on and run to the animal shelter, you can read the rest of this list while on the way there to amp up the excitement even more. But what more of a reason do you need to bring home a pawdorable pupper than to be the first person to show them that they deserve to have their own things.

  • A painfully pawdorable reminder of just how wholesomely unique each and every pupper is in their own right. Sure, not every pupper is born with stand out features such as this cutie. But that does not mean that they do not harbor stand out features on this inside.
