Who doesn't love puppies? 

On your worst day at work, after a heartbreak, or in the midst of a midlife crisis, holding a soft, innocent, and smiling puppy can just do the trick and spring you back to life. There's something so magical about sipping your first cup of joe while scrolling through a pile of adorable puppy memes. It's not just about their cuteness, but it's the fact that science backs up how tiny furry faces lift your mood. Studies show that viewing images of puppies can trigger the "baby schema" response (those big eyes, soft features) which boosts positive emotions and improves focus. Who knew, right?

Because you now know that these adorable pups are not just pure amusement, that they really function to save us from ourselves, to stimulate our instinctual behaviors, to help us get through the day from a biological standpoint, now we can relax and enjoy the presumably hedonistic act of scrolling memes. The worst luck could come your way – you're stuck in traffic before work, your coworker spilled coffee on you, you realized you did a project wrong, and you forgot your lunch. But remembering that you have a cutie doggo at home waiting for you to get back home for pets and cuddles softens the blow of a bad day somehow. Our dogs love to give us good morning barks, snuggles, smiles, and playtime. There's nothing so comforting as the smile of your furriest of companions. There's no better way to greet the morning than with a wagging tail, a hot cup of coffee, and a scroll through some pawsitively hilarious dog memes. Enjoy!

  • There's nothing cuter than a puppy. It doesn't matter what kind of person you are, puppies surpass any and all people's judgements. They're absolutely adorable and there's no world in which they won't be loved and love back.
