“Dogs are my favourite role models. I want to work like a dog, doing what I was born to do with joy and purpose. I want to play like a dog, with total, jolly abandon. I want to love like a dog, with unabashed devotion and complete lack of concern about what people do for a living, how much money they have, or how much they weigh. The fact that we still live with dogs, even when we don’t have to herd or hunt our dinner, gives me hope for humans and canines alike.”

Dog-lover Drew Barrymore formally introduced the world to her new rescue pup, Oliver, now over a year old, on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. Showing off photos, she told Ellen, “He looks like a bear. He looks like a tiny little bear. I can’t even handle it. He was a rescue dog. He was found in a box with his brothers and sisters outside of East Valley Shelter.”

We’re in love. From Josh Duhamel’s Huffington Post blog: “The best part about adoption is that when you adopt, you save more than one life. By adopting Meatloaf, I was able to make room at the shelter, so more pets can come in, giving them a better chance of finding a home.” And then, just when you think it doesn’t get any better, you find out that Josh is a Dachshund lover to boot.

Ryan Gosling

Hey girl, need a conversational gambit to keep things flowing? Do what Ryan Gosling does and bring along your dog. When Gosling appeared as a guest on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, he brought along his dog, George, a mixed lineage mutt—or “some kind of Muppet” as Gosling called him. “He’s more interesting than I am, so I just thought it would be helpful, the actor said as his dog snacked on bits of green apple. Though it’s doubtful all eyes were on George, the dog’s full-body mohawk certainly drew notice, as did the lone red sock, not a fashion statement as some may have thought, but rather hot spot protection. The mohawk though? Apparently George insists on it.

George Clooney

Yet another reason we adore George. Sigh. George Clooney on Einstein, a black Cocker Spaniel he rescued in 2010: “I start to panic that Einstein is not going to like me” Clooney told Esquire of their first meeting. “So I run into the kitchen, where I have these turkey meatballs, and I rub them all over my shoes… Who knew Einstein was such a food whore on top of everything? He throws himself at my feet.”
