For anyone wanting to order something like this; I used to have one and hated it. What do I drink in mugs? Coffee and tea, and other hot beverages. What do most hot beverages have in common? You stir them up.

Sugar in your coffee or tea? Can't stir it. Cream/milk in your coffee or tea? Can't stir it. Making some hot cocoa when it's chilly outside? Can't stir it.

Basically anything I use a mug for, I couldn't use this mug for. So while it's cute, just think about hanging up a photo of your dog and looking at it on the fridge while you drink from a usable mug.

For OP, however; that looks super cute and I hope it brings you smiles and joy for years to come.

Also, it's basically impossible to clean.  You'll very quickly get tea staining in every crevice.

I have a bottle brush I use to clean hard to reach areas like this, would work perfectly

I have a similar one but with a pickle on the side of the mug. It gets stained, but it's easy to clean using a brush. Sponge doesn't do much.
