You might be at least a _little_ sick of seeing people dump water over their heads everywhere you turn on the Internet, even if the hugely viral phenomenon _is_ raising [insane amounts of money](http://time.com/3148314/als-ice-bucket-challenge-million/) for a worthy cause.

But the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge has now taken a cutesy turn. Here, we present some of the best canine contributions to the ever-growing collection of icy videos.

**The dachshund that’s totally prepared with a cute little shower cap:**

**The pug that would rather just donate the damn money and have you leave it alone:**

**The big guy named Jet that’s pretty chill about things:**

**The puppy named Buttons that’s all, “can you not?”:**


**The corgi that actually seems** **_excited_** **to complete the challenge:**

**This chill chihuahua named Jack:**

**The little dude named Phineas Ernest Sander that’s rocking a fly raincoat:**


**The little cutie named Tinkerbelle that chills in protective rain gear while her human sings for some reason:**

**The dog named Boomer that realizes the challenge isn’t so bad after all:**

**The courageous pooch that uses an actual bucket:**


**Honorable mention: this cutie named Lucky that** **_almost_** **completed the challenge:**
