Happy National Mutt Day!

Need a cure for the Monday blues? Our photo feature is here to help provide a brief diversion from your workday routine with a small dose of squee, wow and awwww. Enjoy!

They say every dog has his day, and now that saying rings true. From humble beginnings, mutts now have a holiday to call their own. This July 31 is National Mutt Day — a day to celebrate the wonderful characteristics of mixed-breed dogs and promote their adoption. Of course, at Best Friends, we love all dogs — mutts included. So take a moment to relax and enjoy some adorable mutt dog pictures.
