This week we saw how big a St. Bernard puppy can get in just three months and cheered on the dog’s mission to become a ‘bark ranger’ in every national park.
In addition to videos and stories about trending pets, readers also send in photos and videos of their pets for our weekly “Pet of the Week” lineup.

This week’s Pet of the Week winners are Ollie and Gracie, two Corgi brothers with a true brother-sister relationship.
“They always want what the other person has, and this time Ollie decided he’d had enough and wasn’t going to lose his blanket,” owner Anne Graham told Barron’s.
In the hilarious video, the two were seen having an adorable argument on a blanket. But their bond is undeniable, even if they argue over trivial matters.
“They’re great companions and great dogs,” Graham said. “Gracie is smarter, but Olly is kind and caring and his face melts your heart.”

This week’s first finalist is Osi, who recently passed away after spending 15 years with his owner. Whether I was working, walking, swimming, or hiking, Auggie was always by my side, creating an unbreakable bond.
“Auggie actually opened the door and looked for me. If it was a pull-down lever, he would pull it open,” the owner told Us.
They spent the day and night together playing hide and seek.
“My little buddy is no longer here, but he will forever be in my heart,” his owner said.

Next up this week is Archie the miniature poodle. He was having a bit of a “bad hair day” after his encounter with the couch.
“He started rubbing himself against the synthetic throw on the couch and his coat started to get bad,” his loving owner Leslie Hunt told Newsweek. “He feels like he’s being charged with static electricity.”

Last but not least this week, Daisy and Zoe, two dogs who live with their owner Michelle Fenton, both have their own rescue stories.
Daisy was found along a highway in Texas and adopted through a cattle dog rescue after Fenton drove her home all the way from North Dakota.
“She was clearly raising a puppy at the time, but the puppy was never found,” Fenton told the publication. We quickly bonded on the car ride home. ”
It wasn’t long before Zoe joined them. One morning, when I let Daisy out, I noticed a small puppy pressed against the door. “She had been dumped and thankfully she found her way to us,” Fenton said.
To our surprise, this little puppy ran away to safety and quickly became part of the family. Zoe, who is now about 1 year old, loves living with Daisy.
“She’s about a year old now and full of zoomies!! She’s also a fierce cuddler,” said her owner. “These two are great friends and I’m so grateful to have them in my life.”
