How your Monday goes can determine the outlook for your whole week, so it's pawsitively important that you start it off on the right paw - a puppy paw.

Mondays are hard because you have to leave your comfortable weekend routine and return to your normal schedule of leaving your puppers at home while you spend half your day in the office. On the weekends, we hang out with our doggos all day. From cuddling in bed before our morning coffee to long walks in the evenings, we cherish our quality time with our four-legged best friends. But once Monday rolls around, we have to leave them behind and go back to work, where our doggos are noticeably not there.

We're not saying we would be more productive if we could bring our dogs to the office, in fact, we would probably be less productive because we'd be worried about them causing some canine chaos around the office, but our mood would certainly be better. And a good mood makes a happy worker, and a happy worker usually makes good progress in their work. 

But we're a solution-guy: if we can't bring our dogs with us, we'll find a way to bring the dogs to us. Not in dog tweets, nor in cute pupper pictures, but with a howl of happy dog snaps. They'll bring some doggie dopamine to our Monday until we can get home and kiss our dogs again. And if we do that, then we'll have a good Monday, and hopefully, a good week. It's like eating a healthy, nutritious breakfast - it should nourish you and keep your going all day long with a smile on your face… at least until lunchtime. 

Only 7 hours and 59 more minutes, right?

  • This is why dogs are considered man's best friend. A cat wouldn't do this. Nor would a snake, hamster, or bunny. But a dog will. Because a dog just wants three things: food, a safe place to sleep, and a human to love. Whenever we come home after a long day at work, our dog is as happy to see us as they were the day before, the week before, even the year before. Our coming home means that we get to be together again, and that joy makes us feel alive, worthy, and loved.

  • You don't really see a dog's personality until they feel safe in their new home. Even puppies can take some time to show you how they really are if they are shy in their new home. But once they do, oh boy, you're in for a treat. The goofball inside them breaks out, or the prince/princess, and you have yourself a fine and dandy doggo just waiting for your love.
