Dogs with jobs are so amazing. One of the most amazing jobs that dogs have though in our opinion are helping other humans. Service dogs are so important, and they always do such important jobs. And while every dog who becomes a service dog is so, so important, not every single dog can become a service dog. Some of them are simply too good and gentle for that job.

That is the story of this gorgeous black Labrador pupper. The little guy was just a tiny bit too shy to become a service dog, so he ended up being a rescue. He still stayed the very best boy though, and the things he was taught in service dog school have definitely come in handy for him protecting his human. 

Everyone has their favorite kind of dog, and this one is for the people who love chocolate labradors. With that beautiful chocolately fur and deep brown eyes, it's impossible to not fall in love with these beautiful dogs. For more adorable animal pictures, have a look at these cute baby penguins. 

Sometimes, it's necessary to do things to your pets that they don't like to take care of them. I remember very well the first time I had to feed a pill to my cat after taking her to the hospital and how much she hated it. I didn't like doing it, but I had to, to make my cutie feel better. Well, this dog owner - who has god knows how many dogs - knows the feeling, and so do her dogs.

Every month, she gives them a dewormer, and the dogs have the funniest and most adorable reactions ever. A twitter thread by said owner, @BlairBraverman, showing the dogs dramatic and hilarious reactions has gone viral, and there is absolutely no way that you'll be able to stop yourself from smiling while reading it!

The game of bones is back! 

You probably all remember the two adorable labrador athletes who met earlier in the lockdown-season for an iconic food-bowl race which went viral by their bored owner, sports broadcaster, @MrAndrewCotter.

Now they're back for the final round of this world series, a thrilling and strategic championship when Mabel, the underdog dog, surprisingly claims the victory: "Into the final minute and Olive in possession, but this is where Mabel is strong, chasing the game..." 

Bride Kristen Dupree was started to feel nervous and jittery before the ceremony so she had an idea. She asked one of her bridesmaids to go and get her two-year old black Labrador, Zeke, who had been hanging out with the groom and groomsmen all morning. 

And what happened next was just pure happiness and love. A mini-series of heart-warning "first look" photographs of Kristen and Zeke, taken by Farlow Photography, that have since gone viral. 

The photos of the "first look" between the two hold the raw emotions of love, and we're pretty sure that's what makes this spontaneous shoot so magical. 

Hatty, a 2-year old Labrador retriever, has officially been sworn in at Cook County State's attorney's office. Hatty will be in court with child victims of sexual assault and will handle about 150-200 cases a year.

We love this duo! The unique eight-week-old Labrador mix was born with 6-legs but hops around on her back paws -- thus explaining the name Roo! For those of you who are unfamiliar with the name, Roo is the baby Kangaroo from 'Winnie the Pooh', and the cutest possible name for this little lab!

Recently, a woman on tumblr gave a vegan meal to her lab and posted the picture online. The whole incident sparked an incredible debate and one veterinarian, in particular, explained why this was a big mistake. According to the available scientific evidence, dogs rely on natural protein intake for their proper nourishment. These days, however, things are different as people are continually giving their dogs food of their own choice. For instance, vegans are giving dogs vegan meals (no meat). Now, doing this does not immediately affect a dog's health, but instead, the health slowly starts deteriorating which the owners don't notice. In short, by forcing your lifestyle on dogs, you are putting their lives at risk. That is why this thread is so important to read by any pet owner. Via: RearFront

Single parenthood can be tough, but rewarding. Just ask Fred, the adorable senior labrador, who has taken a brood of ducklings orphaned under his paw after their mom disappeared few weeks ago. 

The ten-year-old pooch is the resident pet at Mountfitchet Castle near Stansted, Essex, in the UK, where a member of staff found the lost siblings waddling around the battlements. The Staff at the popular tourist attraction said they were very worried about the ducklings, but Fred immediately took to them and has been babysitting ever since. Fred definitely proves that you can be a perfect dad even at grand old age of ten. The staff says that the babies 'absolutely love him'.  Take a look at some of their precious photos together.
