Wheelchair-Bound Pup Frolics in Autumn Leaves

I don’t know about you but I’m suddenly much more excited for fall.

I don’t know anything about this dog other than that his image was submitted to Reddit by the user EmotionalMillionaire, that he appears to be handicapped, and that he’s shamelessly whipped up over a small pile of fallen leaves.

For those who prefer summer to winter, it’s easy to miss out on fall fun by being preoccupied with dreading winter. Thoughts of cold feet, low, dark clouds, chapped lips and the feeling of your thighs freezing through your jeans while waiting for the subway overtake thoughts of pumpkin carving and apple bobbing. For many, fall feels more ominous than festive.

But this pup in the wheelchair puts all that into perspective. If he can enjoy the autumn leaves with abandon, then so can you. Go to Starbucks and buy a pumpkin spice latte before they’re gone again, eat a bunch of cookies (a non-seasonal activity that certainly won’t hurt) and as Matt suggested, go shopping for a puffy vest.

Or, do exactly what this little guy did and find a pile of leaves, wait for a gust of wind, and then freak the fuck out.

Whatever works.
