Everyone knows that UConn has the greatest mascot of all the mascot, the best dog of all dogs, Jonathan XIV, who was preceded by the majestic Jonathan XIII. Look at those amazing doggos.
But there are lots of other dogs in the UConn family. Many former Huskies have some truly outstanding doggos in their life. So I decided to rank them. “But Meghan, isn’t this just an excuse to post pictures of dogs?” Hell yes it is. These are all the dogs we could find via social media, the sole purpose of which is (or should be) to spread images of dogs far and wide. If you know of a UConn doggo that we missed (or you have a UConn doggo you want to share) then please view this post as an invitation to send me all the pics of all the dogs. There is never I time when I do not want to see pictures of your dog, and I will happily update this post with any good dogs I receive. Send them to me on the Twitter @MeghanBard.
Anyway, let’s get down to it. It’s important to remember that all dogs are good dogs, and all of these dogs are extra good because they are UConn dogs, so the ranking on this list should not be considered a slight against any dogs, because we would never do that. Dogs are great.

Doggo in a diaper, I mean honestly.

This is an extremely good beach dog, hello, I would like to pet
1. (tied) Morgan Valley
Coach Valley has an adventure dog, this dog loves to hike I can tell. This dog could star in Homeward Bound, but would never leave home without proper supervision.

Ohmygod this dog is such a good basketball dog. Just chillin’ in the gym, the perfect dog (they are all perfect).
1. (tied) Richie Ashmeade
Richie appears to have some kind of lab dog or lab-adjacent dog and I love lab dogs they are so good.
1. (tied) Shabazz Napier
He is a swimming dog, I would paddle with him. This dog could win at least two national championships.
1. (tied) Andre Dixon
Andre’s dog’s name is Karma, which I assume means Andre has lived an amazing life to deserve an amazing dog.
1. (tied) Murray Williams
This appears to be a big yellow lab dog, and I would very much like to pet her.
1. (tied) Stef Dolson
This dog is just cute as hell. That is all.
1. (tied) Breanna Stewart
Stewie’s got a doggo named Spicy, which is a truly excellent name for a dog.
1. (tied) Moriah Jefferson
MoJeff has a dope car, but her dog is even better.
1. (tied) Charlie Villanueva
Charlie has not one but TWO dogs. A tiny little floofer dog and another dog that appears to be like part lab part rottie? I dunno but I would rub that dog’s belly for sure.
1. (tied) Scott Burrell
German Shepards are wonderful, special dogs, and this one is a good workout dog who needs a nap. Would snuggle this dog.
1. (tied) Cliff Robinson
Uncle Cliffy got a new doggo not too long ago, and that dog has grown into an extremely adorable large dog. I love this dog. I want to hang out with this dog.
1. (tied) Andre Drummond
Dre has a brown lab dog, and I had a brown lab dog and she was the best dog in the world, so I can only assume this dog is also the best dog.
1. (tied) Ryan Boatright
Meet Boat’s son Bentley. He has his own IG. He is a great dog.
1. (tied) Ed Nelson
Honestly, there is no way we could finish off this list with any dog but this one. A Husky with a husky. It’s too perfect. (Also, excellent decorating job, nice work.)
