I thought I’d seen some happy dogs in my day, but these 18 pups? I dare say that they’re the happiest dogs in the whole wide world!

As a dog owner myself, there’s nothing that makes me happier than seeing my two pups full of glee. They find so much joy in the little things, like riding in the car or destroying a new toy, that it reminds me to stop and count my own blessings. If everyone could be as happy as these dogs, even just for a day, the world would be a much better place.

1. Let’s kick things off with a dog birthday party! So many happy faces.

2. “I brought you a present. Make a wish, Mom and Dad!”

3. This dog really knows how to turn a frown upside down.
