Shelter Dogs Are Sorted into Hogwarts' Houses
The Harry Potter books and movies are incredibly popular with people of all ages. One Orlando shelter used this popular franchise to get attention for their adoptable pups. In the story, the magical school for wizards splits each student into one of four houses based on their talents and personalities. 

At the shelter, they took the same four houses and sorted the dogs. This could help potential families learn a little more about the dog based on which house they were sorted into, making it a little more fun for everyone. They called the program Pawgwarts (which rhymes with the school in the story, Hogwarts). 

Happy dogs were sorted into Hufflepuff, brave dogs went to Gryffindor, the smartest dogs went to Ravenclaw, and the determined and ambitious dogs went to Slytherin. Hopefully, this worked some magic and got some of these pups adopted immediately. Which house would you want to adopt from?

This New Toilet Paper Just Might Save the Planet
Every 24 hours, 27,000 trees are cut down to make toilet paper. To us, that feels like way too many — and Honeycomb agrees. That's why this small, female-founded brand created luxury, three-ply toilet tissue made from bamboo. It feels just like regular high-end toilet paper, but doesn't harm trees. 

So why bamboo? It's the fastest-growing plant in the world — growing 100 times faster than the average tree — which means thousands of rolls can be produced in the time it takes for a single tree to grow back.

This Doodle is on His Way to Hogwarts
Dobby is a Doodle named after the special elf from Harry Potter. When his owner knew she was getting a dog, she planned how to train the pup to respond to commands inspired by the spells in the Harry Potter series. This brilliant little pup has learned 15 different spells, and it makes both of them feel pretty special. 

Dobby can respond to Avada Kedavra, which is the killing curse in the book. He plays dead when he hears it. The owner's personal favorite is when she tells him to "go to Azkaban." That's the name of the fictional wizard jail, and Dobby knows that for him, it means going to his crate. Their learning journey isn't over yet; she's always thinking of more spells to teach him. 

If you love dogs and Harry Potter, you should follow along on their Instagram account for more adorable Dobby content!
