Javier, a black and gray terrier mix and the CEO of WeRateDogs, stands and looks at the camera with big brown eyes. he's wearing his best tan suit with a white shirt collar and brown tie with polka dots. he is ready to get down to business.
Javier, our CEO, hopes your holiday break was everything you needed it to be. It is understandable if you need a bit more time to get reacclimated this morning. He hopes 2026 brings you love, happiness, and plenty of good dogs. He is comfortable handling that last one ❤️
This is Pebble. She may be the reason you're late, but wants to remind you she's also your reason for living. 13/10 (IG: pebbletherottie)
We only rate dogs. This is a very cozy bed bug. We advise you to get a new bed, since this one is taken, and kindly request you only send dogs. Thank you… 12/10 (TT: coldsmuckersuncrustable)
This is Mogley. He just had a very close call. Almost formed an entire thought, but snapped out of it just in time. 12/10 (TT: evilmaizey3)
This is Scotty. He is not chasing his own tail's shadow. If you'll notice, he actually has it cornered. 13/10 (TT: lifewithscotty)
This is Mack. In his head he absolutely crushed this agility course. Who are we to tell him otherwise. 14/10 (TT: adventuresof.mack)
Don't Buy Starbucks! At any location, today and beyond, while workers are on ULP strike!
As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.
Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX
This is Goose. His stick didn't fit through the door at first. But Goose believed in himself, and more importantly, so did his doorman. 13/10 (TT: bigstickgoose)
a person in a white shirt and blue striped boxers holds a black and tan dachshund under the armpit with one arm and under the chin with the other. the dog has a massive mouthful of cooked spaghetti chomped in his mouth, with noodles sticking out in all directions, and a single long strand dangling down the length of his skinny body. we know the position isn’t ideal, but the dog was recently fished out of the garbage where he found this treasure, so it’s a temporary solution. the dog’s eyes are wide: likely a combination of joy at the feast, surprise as the swift removal, and shock at having been caught.
We only rate dogs. This is spaghetti con salsiccia. Obviously has the noodles and the sausage, but is notably missing sauce. Please only send dogs. Thank you… 13/10 (IG: futrinka_tacsko)
Good things are possible and we don’t have to settle.
ahh! a small fluffy ghost sits on a hardwood floor staring directly at us. but actually... the longer we take it in, the more cute the ghost becomes. one could even mistake this little guy for a golden retriever puppy wearing a sheet with eye, ear, and mouth holes cut out of it. even though he gave us a fright, we would still pet this ghost puppy.
My goodness. Please don’t send in ghosts. They are very frightening. We only rate dogs. Thank you... 12/10 (IG: theodore.goldenvelt)
This is Herman. He learned how to eat corn on the cob today. And within 11 seconds, he became an expert. 13/10 (TT: devonjohnson07)
a lab pup sits and looks up at the camera. his fur is a mottled blend of blond and black, and he’s standing on his leash with one front paw.
a closeup of baby finley resting his little chin on a blanket. one of his ears is curled under at the tip and his eyes look a little sleepy.
finley sits on a rock next to a body of water and squints slightly into the sun with his pink tongue sticking out.
This is Finley. He has a rare genetic mutation that causes patches of different colors in his coat. It is completely harmless, but it does make him completely handsome. 14/10 (IG: jaktlabben.finley)
This dog led an officer to his leash while being rescued from his burning home. 14/10 for all (IG: aurorapoliceil)
This is Finny. He doesn’t go chasing waterfalls. He carefully studies their timing and arrives in advance. 14/10 very impressive (TT: jordancain70)
In the bookshop this morning:
PARENTS: “Okay, we’re leaving now.”
CHILD: *pulls another book from the shelf and sits down *
CHILD: “Then I guess this is goodbye.”
the intensity of my anger at those who would criminalize the homeless — a population literally created by the greed and callousness of the ruling class — is very hard to contain. it was you who dismantled the safety net. if you don’t like the results, put it back
This is Basil. She just wanted to let you know that you can run, but you can't hide. 13/10 (TT: christaniner)
85% of Gaza is on the brink of death due to starvation. Israel could let aid in at any moment. And some people (like these men tried to do with me on Friday) are still trying to justify this atrocity.
There is no justification. This could stop at any moment. End the blockade now.
Well, I'll be damned.
It's royalty free and there's already six, generic manufacturers lined up.

Women are punished more for not forgiving than men are for doing wrong in the first place.

Admittedly I don't read enough books these days, but I still need them <3
