Nothing says Christmas like nativity scenes, and you can find different versions of them set up in front of churches and houses all over during the holiday season. But you’ve never seen a nativity scene quite like this one…


The groomers at Wags To Riches, a grooming company in England, decided to stage their very own nativity scene with some freshly groomed pups, and the result is just too adorable.

But how did they get all of the dogs to cooperate so nicely?

“It’s amazing what dogs will do for a biscuit,” the owners of Wags to Riches told The Dodo. “They were all happy to sit for the photo.”

While the puppy in the manger is fake (a pottery figurine), the rest are well-behaved pets from clients along with the business’ resident dog.


Does this get you in the holiday spirit? I find it amazing any time a group of dogs can sit still long enough to pose for a photo! 🙂

It happens to the best of us. Christmas time comes around, and we try to get in the holiday spirit. But for one reason or another, it’s just not happening. Not at the moment, at least. But we push forward and play along anyway — and end up looking like the Husky below! 😀

Anuko the Husky is famous for his grumpy look that’s greatly exaggerated by the dark black mask around his face. But the look is deceiving. According to his owner, Jasmine, Anuko is actually a kind dog who shows great enthusiasm for fun things in life. He’s not a big cuddler, but the Husky follows mom around everywhere. The dog even helped Jasmine out a lot with some mental health issues she was experiencing at the time she decided to bring him into her life.

Even though he isn’t actually grumpy, the Husky’s unimpressed looks have resulted in a hilariously awkward Christmas card photo shoot, and it’s too perfect. Take a look at the photos below — you won’t be able to help but laugh!





Aren’t these photos just great? Anuko the Husky is the best! 😀

When a beloved pet goes missing, it’s always a sad and frightening experience for the his owners. However, in the case of the Krier family, it turned out to be a hilarious and extraordinary experience.

One night, their black Labrador named Bo went missing. According to Laura Krier, their family’s property in Kansas is surrounded by open fields, so they assumed that Bo went out just to explore around. He didn’t come home that night, and that made Laura and his husband Kyle get worried.
The next day they got a call, telling them that a dog corresponding to Bo’s description was spotted running around a field about 6 miles away.

Kyle Krier went to the said location to pick up Bo. Much to his surprise, Bo was not alone. Apparently, he went on an adventure with his two friends, Libby, another dog, and Ozzy, a goat. The two animals belong to the Krier family’s neighbors, Chris and Shawna Huggans. Everyone now believes that the three animals planned their escapade and left their homes to explore the nearby fields together. It was definitely an experience that the Krier family will endlessly talk and laugh about.

According to the Krier family, Bo loves going on new adventures and making new friends.

They say that Bo is “crazy, he is full of energy, and always up to something.”

Ozzy and Libby belong to Krier’s neighbors, the Huggans.

The gang sits comfortably in the car as they get transported back to their homes.

Kyle Krier was fortunately able to capture the final part of Bo’s adventure in this video. Otherwise, people wouldn’t believe his unusual and hilarious escapade.

The wish to make a change is the first step towards a change. However, while the adults are often too busy worrying about their everyday responsibilities and problems, children are much more creative and have a clear vision, which is essential for success.

Pavel Bramov, a 9-year old from Russia, is another example of this. This amazing little hero sells his paintings in exchange for food and supplies needed by an animal shelter.


The loss of his pet, Barsik, had a great impact on his juvenile mind, so Pavel could no longer see animals suffering.

This originated the idea, later developed in the “Kind Paintbrush” project, started by Pavel and his mother Ekaterina Bolshakova.


The two run a group on Russian social media site, VK, called “What a little volunteer is capable of?” The page shows the world that young people can change the world and showcase just how he’s doing it.

They are hoping that it will inspire other philanthropic young people.

Despite their honest wish to help and Pavel’s undeniable talent, it is just the duo and their patrons, they do not get any funds from any organization; neither do they have a manager or employees.


The boy makes a contract with pet owners whereby he sells custom pet portraits of their pets in exchange for food, medicines, toys, etc., for dogs in the animal shelter.


He is the youngest volunteer in the sole animal shelter in Arzamas, which cares for over 100 dogs. Therefore, the supplies provided by Pavel are more than welcome.


After finishing the painting, Pavel meets the pets, and always tries to find out about their rescue story, and their life with the current family.

The heart-warming project has led to a massive response from animal lovers in Russia and across the world, and Pavel has even made custom portraits for people from Spain and Germany.


The portrait of Chuck was exchanged for skin medicine, buckwheat (5 kg), and canned dog food (10 cans).

Ksyusha’s portrait was sold for canned dog food, buckwheat(6 kg), some medicines, and bandages.

Jesse’s portrait’s value was in offal(7 kg) and buckwheat(3 kg).

The painting of Tuzik, Rex, Lusya, and Keks was exchanged for canned beef, milk, cereals, a packet of dry food, and some trimmings.

Basi’s portrait was sold to Natalia for fetched buckwheat(10 kg) and pearl barley(10 kg).

Ekaterina says that their entire family is proud of Pavel and his efforts.

“Our family is proud of his wonderful project. His days are scheduled to minutes, he wants to do absolutely everything, there is just not enough time.”

Pavel is like any other kid and often runs short of time, but he dreams of becoming an architect and building an animal shelter.

If you ask us, there is no doubt that he has already done a lot. Yet, considering his young age, the sky is the limit!
