Introducing: Dubs II, otherwise known as the cutest thing you’ll see all day.
On Friday, National Puppy Day, the University of Washington announced the 14th live mascot in its history. Dubs II, an Alaskan Malamute, will succeed Dubs following the upcoming football season.
But you can get to know him now:
More than 90 pups went through the rigorous selection process. The application alone was 11 pages long. Ultimately, the new Dubs emerged from a litter of four born on Jan. 4, chosen by a UW Athletics representative and the current Dubs’ trainer.
