A special festival celebrates the love of dogs.
In Nepal, Hindus celebrate Diwali, a festival of lights celebrated by millions every year in the fall in India, Nepal and elsewhere. Specific to Nepal's parties, though, is a day dedicated to dogs, called Kukur Tihar.
This photo showing dogs wearing floral garlands at the festival was catching clicks on Reddit recently.
The beautiful image prompted other dog lovers to share photos of their dogs celebrating being the beautiful creatures they are.

The garlands are a sign of respect for the animals.
