4. Justise Winslow, Miami Heat + Jefe & Noah

If you are ever feeling sad or blue, head over to the Instagram account for Justise Winslow’s pups Jefe & Noah. I am confident that the Winslow bulldogs could turn any frown upside down. The duo radiate pure joy. Seriously, look at Noah’s smile. There’s no way you can look at these two without cracking a smile of your own. Justise once hashtagged #HappyButTired about Jefe and I’m pretty sure that’s been my forever disposition. And also there’s. The duo is often caught loungin’ around while dad’s at work.

Speaking of dad’s work, it appears at least one of the Winslow pups’ sports interests has gone in a different direction, with Jefe taking a liking to the good ol’ game of futbol.

The two Winslow bullies are on the same page when it comes to enjoying superheroes. Justise snapped a photo of the duo sporting the capes of the iconic DC protagonists – Jefe as Superman and Noah rockin’ Batman gear. The pair also are on the same page when it comes to rockin’ with the newest addition to the Winslow squad, Kodo, their French cousin. I’m looking forward to posts from Jefe & Noah for National Dog Day, assuming they are certain to brighten or heighten whatever mood I may be in.
