It’s kind of crazy how many photos of dogs I have on my camera roll.

Just putting together the album for this article yielded more than 40… and I don’t even have a dog of my own! I just can’t help myself from snapping shots of all the strays I find on my travels.

Now I’m here to share them with you. These 16 pictures of dogs around the world are guaranteed to make you smile!
