25 Dogs Who Hate Christmas (But Still Made The Nice List)

'Tis the season to be jolly! That is, unless you're one of these sweet dogs who just do not understand Christmas.

The holiday season brings good tidings around the world. There's nothing quite like lighting up a Kentucky Fried Chicken yule log, pouring yourself some hot cocoa, and re-watching Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer for the 150th time the night before Christmas. The 12 days of Christmas are made better by the family who unites us, the friends who lift us up, and the pets who turn our houses into homes.

But, let's be honest: Not everyone understands the true meaning of Christmas. We all know an Ebenezer Scrooge who hates wearing a Santa Claus hat and hearing the Little Drummer Boy on repeat. The same goes for our canine campaigns; Here's proof that you can be naughty and nice at the same time with 25 dogs who are real Grinches about Christmas.

1. Kiss under this mistletoe. I dare ya.
