When it comes to picking the perfect holiday present, there’s one gift that no trendy toy or video game system can beat: A puppy.



Watch the above video compilation of people of all ages, crying tears of happiness after receiving their new best friends. We’d be surprised if you can make it through the whole thing without getting a little misty-eyed yourself.



And if all the joy makes you want to hand over a loveable pooch to someone special this winter, the ASPCA is a great place to start. Not only will you be giving companionship to a loved one, but you’ll be giving the dog a forever home where they can spend many happy holidays to come.
