18 Puppies That Love Playing in Puddles

It’s official, puppies in puddles are just about the cutest thing we’ve seen this year, and that’s hard to beat!

With the rainy season longer than ever, lots of us are spending more time indoors and waiting for the weather to clear. We definitely need a little joy in our lives after all the seriousness of the past year or so, and watching our favorite furry friends have the time of their lives is the perfect way to do just that.

A puppy puddle is usually something we don’t look forward to finding in our homes (hint: think potty training), but these capricious canines are doing a whole lot more than just making messes. They’re warming our hearts with nothing but a few inches of rainwater and a whole lot of mud!

Even if we can’t be as carefree as these pups are, let’s watch these cute puddle puppies (or ‘puddies,’ whichever you prefer) have some fun splashing around with their favorite humans!
