There’s no better pick-me-up than the one you get when you see a clip of an animal acting silly, which is why we’ve compiled this weekly column. These short videos feature all sorts of animals, providing you with that much needed rush of endorphins.
This week’s column features a giant lion, a husky trying to figure out a mattress, a wonderfully edited dog dance, a very vocal Frenchie and a poodle with a very adorable haircut. Check them out!

I don’t know if this is just me having no knowledge about lions and their proportions, but this girl looks like one of those cartoon lions from the Ice Age. No matter, she is still friendly and calm, happy to take a walk in the sun and get her much needed back rubs.
A smart dog

Huskies are silly and dumb, just like the video above, which helpfully edits in the thoughts of the dog as it makes several discoveries. First, the mattress has a strange texture and second, there’s just so much space underneath that bed. And then back to the mattress.
Kind of gross but also amazing

This wonderfully edited video shows you how some music and slow motion can transform an unfortunate clip of a dog rubbing his butt against the pavement into some hilarious dance moves. Those back kicks are something else.

This frenchie with an impeccable coat of fur looks upset and disappointed with its owner, making concerned facial expressions and trying its best to say something. In the end, it lands on a bark and some more disappointed faces.

While I don’t know why someone would do that to their loving dog, I still approve because he looks like a giant ice cream or a cartoon sheep. This poor guy’s humiliation goes even further, as he is tricked into licking a fake ice cream cone.
