I've written about my undying devotion to dogs only once or twice (ok, maybe a little more) on this site, but as any proud papa to a pup knows, when your little critter acquires his own shoutout on Cute Overload, he's hit the big time.

He is adorable, isn't he? Even with the occasional "crustache" (kibble leaves crumbs, y'all), the little fella can do no wrong in my book.

And, obviously, he likes to keep clean, so I can't complain.

(Also, Tide: we're ready for those residuals now.)
