Ready for your heart to melt into a pile of mush? Then you've come to the right place, 'cause we're shining a spotlight on Dan Levy [1] and his too-cute-for-words rescue dog, Redmond. The Schitt's Creek star [2] adopted his dachshund-corgi mix pup back in 2012 when Red was 4 years old, and it sounds like it's changed both of their lives for the better. "He had been mistreated and abandoned at an adoption fair in Los Angeles," Dan explained in an Instagram post last year [3]. "Finding him was the greatest thing that ever happened to me." Please excuse us for a moment while we wipe away happy tears.
Speaking of Dan's Instagram, if you scroll back far enough, you'll discover that it's a freakin' treasure trove of peeks into his laid-back life at home with Redmond. Through the years, he's shared a boatload of cuddly Redmond selfies, solo shots, and sassy side-eyed pictures, and each one makes us smile from ear to ear. Ahead, take a look back at all the sweet photos of Dan and his furry friend being the best of pals.

BRB, attempting to Photoshop ourselves into this one.
