As hoomans we very rarely get to live with such joy that we would say we have lived the best day of our lives. But for doggos the truth could not be any different.

When it comes to our cute canine companions, their lack of awareness and over excitement at anything even vaguely new in life allows them to experience the best day of their lives over and over again. You could frame it such as to say that us hoomans have simply learned too much about the world and have thought too much about what it is that we could do to live the best day of our lives.

So while we go around chasing dreams that are far too large to ever be attained, we figured we could all use a little encouragement and mood brightening. And what better way to do that than with this collection of cute puppers captured living what they and their pawrents believe to be the best day of their lives. So go forth and remind yourself that sometimes it is worth letting the little things light up your life while you work towards the big things.

Holy dang, yeah, if someone took us to our favorite shop and told us to pick out anything we wanted, we could quite easily call that our best day ever. Could you imagine the joy of being taken to the video game store, furniture store or even the lofty heights of Target, to pick out any item that your heart desires? It is the symbolic representation of being financially free because someone else has shouldered your financial burden and you know what, it sounds and feels great. Good for this doggo for getting to enjoy such a hooman level experience.

Well, we might need to circle back on this one and see how she is doing in a year or two because after being released from the shelter, and thereby putting the awful story that put you in there in the first place to bed. Well, anything would count as living one’s best day. Just the simple fact that you would not be spending your night in a cold and scary metal box is enough to make that the best day of your life. So running around your new home’s garden with a ball that is one hundred percent yours is a pretty darn big achievement considering the context.
