In adult life, ruff days are a dime a dozen. They can come and go in an instant and usually present little to no warning of when they are due to arrive. That is other than Monday, which stands as a pawmanently ruff day that has no pawsitive solution. That is until now. For we have formulated (with the help of some clever canines) the pawfect list to get you out of your funk, to put some pep in yourself and most importantly to put the wag back in your tail.

And it is this list of cuddly dog memes which will not only make you feel like you are being cuddled by a cute canine, but your soul too. A complete canine experience that leaves you feeling warm, fuzzy and complete from within. And while it is best saved for those ruff days, it can be used whenever you need some of that mutt magic to get through a tough moment.

  • Sometimes cuddles are physical forms of touch. But other times they are energies transferred through shared joy, much like in this example above. Your souls are so excited and delighted to be reunited once more that they in themselves entwine and celebrate the love you share.

  • Pretty much what we all need to help calm us down when we are having a ruff day. A comforter that is tightly wrapped around us and a cute canine to curl up on top of us while we slowly fall asleep. And while that might not be so much of an option while we are at work, at least we have this meme to fuel our day dreams until we get home.

    So I sold my daughter's slide yesterday on Facebook Marketplace. I asked the buyer, "How old are you kids?" She giggled and said, "No, it's for my pugs. They love to go up and down a slide." We are all mothers in our own way. Made my day!
