It goes without saying that interspecies loving is the best kind of loving. It goes without saying that Labor Day is the symbolic end of summer, one last chance to throw back some frozen slushie beers before you're once again throwing back beers while freezing in piles of slush. And it goes without saying that watching videos of police horses enthusiastically licking, nuzzling, and generally being adorable with dogs has become the greatest Labor Day Weekend tradition.
Don't ask me to explain why this is my favorite annual tradition. It's like asking why EDM folks love wearing Kandi bracelets and wife-beaters so much, or why Nicolas Cage keeps buying massive luxury items he can't afford.
When I think of Labor Day, I think "slobbery horses kisses are pretty alright." And that's all there is. Without further ado...
YES MR. PUPPY, BOW BEFORE THE HORSE GOD.
YOU AND I WE ARE NOT SO DIFFERENT, ARE WE GIANT DOG CREATURE?
CLEANSE YOURSELF IN THE WATERS OF LAKE HORSE TONGUE.
STOP YOU'RE EMBARASSING ME NO WAIT DON'T STOP NEVER STOP.
I NEED TO REACH YOU YOU ARE MY FRIEND MY FRIEND WHO I NEED TO REACH.
EVEN NON-POLICE DOGS LIKE PLAYING TUG OF WAR.

BUDWEISER IS THE OFFICIAL SPONSOR OF ALL TEAR-INDUCING DOG/HORSE INTERACTIONS.
KISSING HORSES, BITING BLANKETS, CHASING TAILS, WHAT CAN'T PUPPIES DO???
I DON'T EVEN CARE THAT THIS ISN'T A POLICE DOG, THE DOG IS WALKING THE HORSE FOR CRISSAKES!!!?
IT'S JUST LIKE ANNA DEAVERE SMITH SAID, EVERY HORSE HAS A DOG INSIDE THEM.
PEOPLE LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT MY BEEEEEEEST FRIEND (IT'S A DOG).
I'VE REALLY LOST THE THREAD OF THIS POST BUT I DON'T CARE BECAUSE LOOK AT THEIR STUPID CUTE FACES!!
As ever, may the last lick of summer lather you in the slobber of true love.
