Please enjoy this dog's spruced up recovery cone

Human life is a long series of disappointments, but at least we have photos of dogs dressed in cute costumes to ease the pain.

Today's dog-in-cute-costume comes courtesy of Bailey McConnell on Twitter, whose mom gave the family dog's recovery cone a much-needed makeover.

More than 29,000 retweets later, McConnell's dog is pretty much internet famous.

Is this dog any happier with her cone now that it makes her look like a giant plant? She's likely indifferent, but we feel good about it.
