Dogs

Aww man! We've been sucked in again. It's another edition of animals in costumes, but we swear it's way worth your time. Why? Well, because there are few things more adorable than dressing up our dogs and cats in holiday garb and showing them off on the Web. We're positive they love it! (Maybe.)

There is nothing anyone can do to take away the pain the community of Newtown, Connecticut is going through right now. But a charity group from Illinois is using man's best friend to provide a little comfort to those who are mourning the loss of life from last Friday's mass school shooting.

Don't get us wrong, Christmas is definitely NOT about getting stuff from people. That is not what we're saying at all. At the same time, something makes us think that these dogs are probably having a *way* better Christmas than us. Possibly because "eating beans from a can" and "watching 'Batman Returns' alone on the couch" probably aren't part of their agenda. These pups are f

We spent the first 15 seconds of this video trying to figure out if it was a trick or not. Then the narrator actually says "this isn't a trick."

A trip to find a Christmas tree turned into a potential disaster for young Peyton Myrick. The two-year-old's grandfather had taken the boy to find the perfect tree on a 300 acre plot of family land in Clover, South Carolina when they got separated and, suddenly, Peyton was nowhere to be found.

We love dogs. They're like cats that don't give us hives or try to suffocate us in our sleep. So it was extra-challenging for us to go through all of the amazing dog videos we've shared with you during 2012 and pick out the best. But we did. Because we care about you. And dogs. Mostly dogs. But also you. Here are our finalists for Best Dog Video of 2012. Give them a look and then vote for your fav

It is often said no good deed goes unpunished. Elvis Hernandez can tell you all about that.

You can love the president or hate him, but you've got to admit this is one cute First Dog. Here's Bo Obama being a very good dog and not knocking over any of the one zillion Christmas trees in the White House as he "inspects" the decorations before it opens to the public and 90,000 people stroll through...

Santa Claus rules. Unless his beard gets stuck mid-mall stunt, then his cool status gets a little iffy. But otherwise, good ol' St. Nick is really awesome. Why? For starters, he has reindeer as pets, gives out presents for a living and gets thousands of free homemade cookies on Christmas Eve. Basically, the guy's livin' the life. It's no wonder he's survived to be like, hundreds of years old! Read

Cats and dogs certainly have different personality traits. How would you react to them if they were people instead?

A family in Indianapolis, Indiana faced a moment that all loving parents dread. Fortunately, their dog spared them from the ultimate horror.

Thanksgiving is a wonderful holiday for dogs. Lots of human food, lots of stuffed, sleepy people, and lots of attention. But sometimes you have to work to get your treat, and Sloopy the Chihuahua is no exception. But you have to admit, as attention hunting goes, this is pretty great...

Musician Fiona Apple already has a bit of a reputation for being melodramatic, and her recent move to cancel her South American tour because her dog is dying probably won't do much to dispel that. Still, Apple wrote a touching four-page letter explaining her decision that's guaranteed to make you shed a tear.

Humans aren't the only ones who find great enjoyment from slides. Take a look at this doberman tackling the rock slide like a little kid at a pool party. And just like us, even the canine can't settle for going down just once.

It seems like just one week ago we were posting a picture of a dog in a garbage can on our Facebook page. Since then, we've shared lots of stuff with you, and in return, you make us LOL with your witty, sometimes disturbing (looking at you, guy who said he take his time killing a cat) comments. Here are our favorite captions you provided for our weekly photo contest. Congratulations to our winners
