Welcome to Mariah Week! How would you describe Mariah Carey? One word is not enough. In fact, 1,000 words would not be enough. That's why ELLE.com is celebrating the elusive chanteuse all week long. (Previously, we recapped the first episode of Mariah's World and ranked all the songs on her Christmas album.) Stay tuned for more Mariah.

The only thing Mariah Carey might love more than "moments" is her beloved pooches. Over the years, we've been blessed with endless examples of the diva's appreciation for her canine babies. Mariah has included pups past and present—Jack, Cha Cha, Jackie Lambchops, Jill E. Beans, Squeak E. Beans, JJ, The Good Reverend Pow Jackson, Pipitty L. Jackson, and Mutley P. Gore Jackson the 3rd (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)—in music videos, TV spots, interviews, family snaps, and social media updates.

We love her dogs too. Here are 20 times Mariah showed us just how much she adores them.

And Bieber makes three, in the "All I Want for Christmas Is You" remake.
