Dogs are the best thing to ever happen to mankind. Around the holidays, dogs are the companion to be thankful for. Here are some of the reasons why having a dog around the holidays is the best.

  • You get to play in the snow together!
  • You get to watch them open their presents...
  • ...and rip apart all of the wrapping paper with glee!
  • You can get professional photos taken with them...
  • ...and mail out the photos to all your loved ones.
  • They can meet Santa Paws!
  • You can put a Santa hat on their head...
  • ... or reindeer antlers  to make them look adorably silly.
  • If they knock over your Christmas tree, you can see the look of guilt on their faces and there's no way you can get mad at them after that!
  • You can spend some quality time together...
  • ...and get some warm, wintertime cuddles.
  • You can put them in a Christmas sweater...
  • ...and get one for yourself to match!

Christmas is meant to be spent with your loved ones, and who loves you more than your own pooch?
