31 Cute Dog Photos That Will Make You Smile No Matter What You’re Going Through

Life can be a downer sometimes that letting out a smile can get a little tough. There’s sad news happening all around the world. There’s some heartache we all have to go through. Add to that the stresses and demands of everyday life such as in school or at work. Well, I have a couple of good news to make life a little better for you. One, it’s still the weekend; and two, dogs! In a world where there’s sadness and pain, dogs have proven to be a constant source of joy. There are speculations that the heavens created dogs to spread happiness and optimism, and who’s to say that isn’t true?

Several psychological studies have shown that dog owners lead happier lives than non-dog owners, and that people facing serious illnesses fared better in the presence of dogs. This may be due to the belief that dogs behave a lot like humans and can actually give meaningful social interaction. Well, they are not called man’s best friend for no reason, are they? Here are 31 cute dog photos guaranteed to make you smile even when the going gets ruff!
