This is the moment you’ve all been waiting for. After weeks of asking our readers to submit their paw-fect pet pictures, we’ve put together our first — absolutely adorable — roundup.
We received dozens of photos of our neighborhood cats and dogs, so we decided to divide the spotlight to double the celebration. This one’s for the pups. After all, cute animals were what the internet was really made for in the first place.
Editor’s note: We had too many submissions to include everyone’s photos.
