What makes a dog a Very Dog dog?

Arguably, some dogs are more dogs than others. Sure, all dogs are dogs, but some dogs are so big and fluffy they could be classified as bears (who actually give bear hugs, because you wouldn't really want to receive one from an actual bear… that's dangerous), like a Samoyed dog. And some dogs are Chihuahuas, and we don't think we need to explain ourselves on why we listed them here. They just need to be a little less angry mouse to be more dog, that's all we're saying.

So what really makes a dog a… dog? Well, there are many parameters, but here are the ones we think are the most crucial in making a Very Dog dog: First of all, they need to be as adorable as a dog. Dogs have this endless adorableness to them that's got to be there. Secondly, there's got to be some excited tail-wagging there. We know some dogs don't have their tails, but the tail-wag can be an energy as well. And lastly, we think floofiness is a must. Dogs don't have to have long and lush fur to be extra floofy, it's about acting as if they're the floofiest around, wanting pets and belly rubs.

Basically, most dogs are Very Dog dogs. Because they're such good boys and girls, who are all adorable, soul-waggers, with fabulous floofiness. We wuff them all. If your dog is next to you now by any chance, please pet them extra for us.

Even a dog who forgot how to dog for a second there is still a Very Dog dog. That's because forgetting how to dog, or doing any other type of silly things is actually a doggo qualifier. Dogs are so silly sometimes, making us laugh with their howlarious antics, which is just another reason to love them so much. Seriously, we love dogs so much, we want to pet them all - smart, silly, and everything in between.

If you don't allow your dog on the furniture, you're missing the point of having furniture at all. They are called FURnitures, don't they? It's in the name. They were meant to have fur on them. Your dog is doing you a service by climbing on the couch or trying to jump on the table.
