Woof — it’s been a looooooong week.
If you feel like you’ve been working like a dog, let us offer you the internet equivalent of a big pile of catnip: hilarious tweets about pets.
We Shih Tzu not.
Each week at HuffPost, we scour X, formerly Twitter, to find the funniest posts about our furballs being complete goofballs. They’re sure to make you howl.
(And if you want more, no need to beg ― you can check out last week’s batch right here.)
My wife has kindly asked me to stop referring to the neutered male pets in our house as “my council of eunuchs”

Snoopy is the most famous dog in the world. And he’s giving a live performance of his theme song. This is like the dog version of being at a Michael Jackson concert in 1987. “It’s not that fire bro 😭😭”. Uh…yes it is. Please respect that little guy’s culture https://t.co/qm3k3JirNd

I love my mom’s dog, she’s such a brave and stupid warrior. whenever I yawn or something in the guest bedroom, she freaks out and barks like crazy until I show myself. then she gets really happy and trots around celebratorily
