I'm not going to lie, when I saw this video on Videogum this morning, I almost spun right off the planet. TV FOR DOGS, PEOPLE. WELCOME TO THE DAMN FUTURE. While I try to collect myself a little, please peruse this blockquote, which the heroes at Videogum found in the website's frequently asked questions:
DOGTV was designed for dogs who have to stay home alone. While there is no need for you to watch DOGTV with your dog—unless this is his first time—you are more than welcome to watch DOGTV together! We’re sure you’ll have a great time.
HOLY ESS, I must have this channel added to my cable package immediately.
The whole thing got me thinking, though. You know what else would be a nice addition to my cable package? A different kind of dog channel, featuring wall-to-wall shows starring dogs. Shows about dog lawyers, shows about dog doctors, shows about hip, rebellious mutts moving to an upscale neighborhood and trying to fit in with all the purebreeds, etc. Hell, there's already a dog cop show being made. We're so close. Let's not quit now!
Naturally, we'll need one show devoted entirely to corgis. I'm thinking we call it "Corgi Squad," and have it feature our favorite little furballs kicking down doors and foiling terrorist plots. I would watch that. I would watch that a lot.
After the jump, some of my favorite corgi pictures from Tumblr over the past week. Enjoy.

Can’t wait for the Cop Dog/Justified crossover.
Also I blacked out after seeing #17, too…much…cute
Corgi in a bow tie. CORGI IN A BOW TIE!!!!
Corgi in a bow tie is absolutely the correct answer. Trust me.
I like their Thursday night lineup: Barks and Recreation, The Good Woof, and How I Humped Your Mother.
We need a caption for #1: “Ididn’tdoitnobodysawmedoityoucan’tproveanything.”
I submit for your consideration Act 1 of episode 233 of This American Life, if it please the court.

I would really like for bowtie corgi to host a Crossfire type show where all he does is bark over his guests while they try to get across their talking points. So, kind of like the original Crossfire, except more intellectual.
I hate to be a hater, but is #20 really a Corgi? Part Corgi maybe.

My dog doesn’t pay attention to the TV at all. Except one time during a sex scene on Dexter. She was way into it, which clarified that she was straight. I was iffy on that as we live in San Francisco.
Was anyone else disappointed that the guy’s name wasn’t Nicholas Dogman?
I was.
I cried at #10, he looks so sad, like he’s being picked on for having David Bowie’s eyes disease.
When Frank’s boss at IBC proposed programming for cats 20 years ago in Scrooged, we all mocked him…
