That one thing, of course, is you. (Well, not _you_ you, but you get it.) Not everyone can relate to Mariah’s song — but we feel confident that everyone can relate to [this new version](http://mashable.com/2014/12/15/pug-all-i-want-for-christmas/) performed by [Doug the Pug](http://instagram.com/itsdougthepug). All _he_ wants for Christmas is food. Tacos, pizza, cookies, Chex Mix, doughnuts, Doug wants it all. And that’s all he wants. It’s all he’s ever wanted. ### See Adorable Puppies Shaking Their Fur  Annie - 7 weeks, Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Carli Davidson  Annie - 7 weeks, Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Carli Davidson  Koda - 20 weeks, Pomeranian Carli Davidson  Koda - 20 weeks, Pomeranian Carli Davidson  Hans - 12 weeks, Boxer Pit Mix Carli Davidson  Hans - 12 weeks, Boxer Pit Mix Carli Davidson  Cloud - 8 weeks, Shar Pei Carli Davidson  Cloud - 8 weeks, Shar Pei Carli Davidson  Josie - 12 weeks, Boxer Carli Davidson  Josie - 12 weeks, Boxer Carli Davidson  Meatball - 10 weeks, Pit Bull Carli Davidson  Meatball - 10 weeks, Pit Bull Carli Davidson  Vincent - 8 weeks, Dachshund Carli Davidson  Vincent - 8 weeks, Dachshund Carli Davidson ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3634784/doug-pug-christmas-mariah-carey/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3634784/doug-pug-christmas-mariah-carey/"},"headline":"We Are All This Pug Named Doug Whose Only Real Christmas Wish Is Food","datePublished":"2014-12-15T22:28:39.000Z","dateModified":"2026-05-11T04:48:14.864Z","description":"Watch his very relatable parody of Mariah Carey's \"All I Want for Christmas Is You\"","url":"https://time.com/3634784/doug-pug-christmas-mariah-carey/","keywords":["Newsfeed","animals","christmas","Holidays"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt98beb003f3612533/69876eef06f2c166b0332e35/screen-shot-2014-12-15-at-4-48-05-pm.png?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Samantha Grossman","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/samantha-grossman/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt98beb003f3612533/69876eef06f2c166b0332e35/screen-shot-2014-12-15-at-4-48-05-pm.png?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Screen Shot 2014-12-15 at 4.48.05 PM","caption":"","creditText":"","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3634784/doug-pug-christmas-mariah-carey/","name":"We Are All This Pug Named Doug Whose Only Real Christmas Wish Is Food"}}]}] ```
