Eight Dogs Take The ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. This Disease Affects Our Best Friends Too.

The ALS Ice Bucket Challenge continues to gain momentum and it was only a matter of time before dogs joined in on the good cause. After all, they are our best friends! Here are some of the dogs who’ve taken the challenge (with a little help from their humans).

First up, there’s Ammo the Dachshund who was prepared with a cute little shower cap and (thankfully) warm water.

Aspen helped his human get wet. Good dog!

Twiglet managed to dump her own bucket.

Then there’s cute little Tinkerbelle who came prepared.

And Donut the pug who wasn’t amused.

Boomer was skeptical at first, but didn’t find it all that bad.

This Cavalier King Charles Spaniel got the royal treatment.

And finally, Lucky. Well, Lucky lived up to his name.

ALS also affects dogs, but the condition is known as degenerative myelopathy (DM). Read more about DM here, as well as some stories about dogs affected with DM here and here.
