I pet Malachi. He is a 5 year old Therapy Dog. Malachi goes to schools to comfort kids who are feeling anxious or having a hard day. He loves kids so much, he can tell when they are upset and need him. He lies next to them or sits in their lap. Malachi makes everyone feel better. pic.twitter.com/hKgzknbYVa

I’ve Pet That Dog

Yes, it’s exactly what it sounds like, and yes, it’s even more amazing than you think. This wholesome account is run by 12-year-old Gideon, who, despite his age, has already made a huge mark in the world of Dog Twitter. On his account, you’ll find frequent photos of Gideon smiling alongside each dog he meets, accompanied by a short bio or fun fact about the pup. You’ll be scrolling — and smiling — for hours.

According to the FAQs on his website, Gideon has petted over 1,200 dogs in the last four years, which is as long as his account has been active. He has even petted 387 virtual dogs because not even the pandemic will stop this canine hero. Don’t worry; it’s all supervised by his mom!

We Rate Dogs

If you like your dog pictures with a dash of humor, you’ve come to the right account. This page features new pup pictures every day, with a silly caption and rating to match. Each photo is rated by the anonymous account owner with a score out of 10, and (spoiler alert!) every dog so far has scored more than 10.

On this page, you’ll find pit bulls, poodles, and every other breed you can imagine. The account frequently spotlights newsworthy pets, such as Bobo, the 22-year-old Chihuahua, as well as user-submitted photos — so message them a photo of your pet while you’re browsing!

Out of context dogs

This adorable page is just dogs — nothing else. There is, as the name implies, zero context given in any of these posts, only photos and videos of dogs being silly, cute, or just plain weird. In just a few scrolls, you’ll find reposted TikToks of hilarious pups, photos of doggie haircuts gone wrong, and oh-so-much more.

If you expect just a smile while visiting this profile, raise your expectations. Before you know it, you’ll be laughing out loud and begging for more. You can scroll in peace for hours if you want. And with this many adorably random pups, you’ll want to.

The Pet Collective

Although not doggie exclusive, The Pet Collective is an adorable, relatable account that features pets of all species. From silly cats and dogs to unlikely farm animal friends, you can find it on this page. Even if you’re a dog-only person, there are plenty of pup videos on this profile to help you get your fix.

On its website, The Pet Collective describes itself as “a playground that promotes joyful moments … for the spoiling, nurturing, and whole-heartedly pet-obsessed,” and from a pet lover’s perspective, we couldn’t agree more. The collective accepts video submissions from users, so you know everything you see on the page is as authentic as it is adorable.

The 6 newest dog breeds: What sets them apart
If you’re thinking of bringing home a new dog, consider one of these elusive breeds
A Bracco Italiano runs on the beach

Some dog owners (and fans of dogs) can name dozens of dog breeds like the back of their hands, but others can't even tell the difference between a dachshund and a Corgi. That's OK! As long as a dog owner knows how to take good care of their fur baby, they don't necessarily need to know the fun facts. At the same time, learning about different dog breeds can be valuable in certain situations, whether you like watching dog shows or are considering volunteering at a rescue.

Even if it's just for fun, there's a lot you'll want to know about the six newest dog breeds in the show universe. The American Kennel Club (AKC) is one of the largest dog breed registries in the world, and it oversees the standards and requirements for each new breed that's created. Since 2021, it has welcomed six new breeds to its ranks, and you may have even seen these dogs in a local or televised dog show.

Bringing home a new dog can be one of the most fun, joyful, and memorable things you'll ever do, but that doesn't mean it's always going to be a walk in the park. After all, adding four more paws to your family is a big decision to make, and it requires a lot of research, time, and care from everyone in your home. But if you do the research, practice consistency, and remain patient and loving with your new furry friend, you'll set yourself up for success!

In the dog rescue world, a tried-and-true rule called the 3-3-3 rule can help new dog parents learn what to expect and how to help their dog thrive during their first few months at home. This adjustment period is vital for everyone's feelings of safety and happiness in the family, but a little love, time, and patience go a long way. No two 3-3-3 rule dogs will be on the exact same timeline, but knowing this rule can give new adopters a sense of peace and understanding during an unstable time.
