Every Dog is a Good Dog, but dogs that cosplay, especially inadvertently, are the best dogs. I'm sorry if you don't agree, but I don't make the natural laws of the world. I just relay them when it's appropriate.

This week's Best Dog is Wolfgang, a German shepherd belonging to Jen, a.k.a. "Augeia" on Twitter and Twitch. Wolfgang must wear doggie goggles—"doggles"—because he has corneal pannus, an auto-immune condition that makes his eyes especially sensitive to UV light. Wolfgang's a pretty good sport about his lot in life. In fact, he's currently enjoying fame as an accidental (but totally awesome) cosplay of Dogmeat from Fallout 4.

Even Bethesda is impressed. They're sending along a crate of cool stuff suited for a cool dog. Good job, Wolfgang.

Whew. Dogs. They're just the best, both in real life and in video games.
