Summer and dogs are two things that work very well together.

Dogs are great in every season. In autumn, dogs jump into piles of orange leaves with the greatest joy we've ever seen. In winter, dogs enjoy snow as if they were penguins sliding on Antarctic ice. In spring, dogs run through flowery fields and enjoy every new and fresh smell. But then you have summer. It's not that dogs are better at summer (they're the best in any season, on every corner of the globe), but there's something extra special about dogs enjoying the season to the fullest.

It feels truly uniquely heartwarming seeing a dog run across the beach, trying to play with every person, chasing a ball into the shallow waves, taking a sand bath and running back to their hoomans, happy as they can be. It's really special looking how all the dogs play together in the dog park, all smiling wide, hanging out with their doggo friends and having an absolute blast.

So now that summer is here, and you might actually try to avoid the scorching sun and hide inside where there's a working AC unit, we think it's time to enjoy and be happy just as dogs are in summer - and that can easily be done with dog memes. You're inside, not suffering the rising heat, and still see the happiest doggos online. It's the best way to open summer.

It's such a happy sight - dogs trying to catch the water of a sprinkler, like it's their life mission. Dogs love water so much.

“No time to explain. Get on the horse and come with me to Doggo Land. It's where we're going to get unlimited treats and belly rubs, and the season is always summer. We can go to the pool and get dog-safe ice cream with no hooman telling us ‘no’. We can run across the dog park as many times as possible, without any hooman saying ‘come here, it’s time go home'. In Doggo Land, we go wherever we please.”

Oh, there he is. We've found the one dog who doesn't like the pool in summer. The single one in existence.
