You Didn’t Know This Was Your Favorite Fluffy Dog Breed Until Just Now

If you’ve ever seen a shar pei, then you know that they can be quite wrinkly. Their short coats need to be cleaned on a regular basis in order to remove any dirt or debris from between these folds.

But there’s a new kind of shar pei in town that is quickly stealing the show.

Meet the bear-coat shar pei. These fluffy-coated dogs have a lot going on for them in terms of the cuteness factor.

Their adorable smooshy muzzles and long, soft fur will steal your heart in a second.


Add that fur coat to their wrinkles, and you have one adorable pup who will steal the attention of anyone you meet.

As puppies, they can be mistaken for tiny bear cubs, but don’t be fooled. You won’t have an angry mother bear on your tail if you decide to give these adorable pooches some head pats.

And you’ll be able to give them so many with how big their heads are. Their head-to-body ratio is enormous, and it’s with an owner’s hope that they’ll grow into the size of their massive noggins eventually

And if you think they weren’t cute enough before, you should see them in action. Watch this GIF of a puppy trying to get down some stairs.

The amount of concentration in his furrowed brow shows what a daunting task it is for a puppy of this size.

How anyone could ignore that gorgeous face is beyond me.

“I’m Not Leaving You, Mama!” This is What Love Looks Like.

UPDATE: Lizzie and Phantom are currently recovering in an outdoor koala ward within the  Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital . They’re doing swimmingly; Phantom is both gaining weight and exploring his temporary habitat. And of course, mama and baby are sharing more adorable cuddles! For most species in the animal kingdom, the bond between mother and baby is incredibly strong. That's pretty much inarguable. But last week, two koalas in Australia further proved it. After they were hit by a car, Lizzie and her joey, Phantom were welcomed into the Australia Zoo Wildlife Hospital. Six-month-old Phantom had escaped the accident unscathed. Lizzie, however, wasn’t looking so good, what with facial trauma and a collapsed lung. In order to survive, she needed to go under the surgeon’s knife. But this marsupial mama wasn’t alone during the life-saving procedure. Phantom accompanied her and clung to her as she received treatment. The vets let them be; Phantom was too y...

The Sound Of This Baby Rhino Wailing After Its Mother Was Killed By Poachers Will Haunt You

It’s one of the most sorrowful sounds you’ll ever hear, but it’s also a sad reality check for anyone who thinks protected species are safe from illegal poaching. In a video released this in July, a baby rhino named Davi cries for his mother after she was shot and killed by poachers. Most rhinos spend at least three years with their mothers before weaning,  the Dodo  reports, but Davi’s childhood was cut short at just 8 months old. The baby rhino stood close by his mother’s lifeless body until rescuers arrived. They fitted her with earplugs and a blindfold to calm his anxiety on the way to The Rhino Orphanage in South Africa. Source: YouTube/Terrence Daniels Davi huddles close to his mother’s dead body. It was there that Davi spent the night crying. “His calls for mom echoed deeply and urgently throughout the night, but two carers have been with him every step of the way,”  caretakers posted . “At least he is in good physical condition [and] has no injuries...
