You know what they say, a dog is a man's best friend, and that saying exists for a reason. Dogs possess the ability to put a smile on everyone's face simply by giving a lick here and a tail wag there, not to mention their kind, loving energy and goofy behavior. To truly understand just how loveable and funny these canine companions are, we have compiled a list of some of the top moments of doggy humor on the internet. Read on for the most hilarious and ridiculous pupper photos out there!
1. One Of These Is Not Like The Other
Some dogs are meant for working, like the black labrador pictured here. Instead of helping his owner catch ducks, he has decided to find his own inner duck.
The ducks may have accepted this pup into their flock, but no matter how hard he tries with his badminton birdie, there is no fooling the rest of the world. This is a dog in duck's clothing.
2. Camouflaged
Just like humans, dogs enjoy a soft bed, some nice fluffy blankets and a toy or two tucked in with them. This pup took it to the next level, and his owner almost missed it.
After a long day at the park, this pup tucked itself into bed with all of its favorite toys, which just so happen to bear a striking resemblance to the pup itself.
3. A Fine Hat
Rain or shine, the weather always calls for a hat. Some people prefer a nice ball cap to keep the sun out of their eyes, while others prefer a fur-trimmed cap for the winter.
As a dog owner, you never need to worry about finding a hat when you have a boxer willing to sit on top of your head. No dogs were harmed for this hat, but this owner might not be able to say the same for his head. Who knows where that doggy tush has been?
4. The Hybrid Human-Dog
In theory, big dogs shouldn't be afraid of things going bump in the dark. For this rather large golden retriever, any sudden noises would send it straight into the loving arms of its owner.
This good boy was feeling particularly spooked one evening, and jumped right into its owner's arm. That same night, the hybrid man-dog shadow was born.
5. Say "Doggy Treats"
Getting that perfect pet photo can be tough. Groups of dogs love to frolic and start playing with one another instead of sitting still, and putting their best paw forward.
Just like with a regular family photo, there is no photo where everyone is smiling toothily into the camera. Either a tongue is wagging, a snout is pointed in the wrong direction or a pup's eyes are closed.
6. Young Versus Old
Every owner wants to immortalize what their dog looked like as a puppy. These little balls of fluff are never cuter than when they have their puppy fur, big paws, and droopy ears.
This owner thought it would be cute to recreate the same image they took when their dog was only a few months old. Well, the grown-up version is definitely not on the cute side and more on the 'uh oh' side.
7. Snowball
Some dogs are built for all seasons. Huskies and husky mixes love running around in the snow, and curling up into a tight little ball when the temperature begins to drop.
Instead of running inside to warm up by the fire, this snowball of a pup decided to curl up and enjoy the flakes of snow gently coming down on it.
8. The Case Of The Forgotten Stairs
Dogs come in all shapes and sizes, just like humans. For this little dachshund, he had gotten used to padding up his tiny little staircase and cozying up in his favorite spot on the couch.
However, his owner had forgotten one crucial thing while cleaning - moving the staircase. There is nothing worse according to his dog's eyes, than forgetting to push the staircase back to the couch.
9. Beware Of The Washing Machine
Washing machines can be pretty dangerous for the unsuspecting doggo. Toys go inside and come out smelling like something completely foreign.
After seeing a dog-shaped toy enter the washing machine, and spin around and around, this dog was left wondering, "Am I next?" Those scared-y dog eyes say it all.
10. Welcome To Motherhood
Having puppies is an exciting time in any young female dog's life. They get to eat whatever they want, waddle around their home, and enjoy plush dog beds provided by their considerate owner.
This mama dog looks excited to have her puppies, but post-birth life was a different story. Feeding all of those hungry little puppies really seems to be tiring her out. Somebody give this mama a break!
11. The Dog-Uar
The luxury car brand Jaguar is all about elegance and class. The Dog-uar is something else entirely. Dogs aren't exactly known for their graceful pouncing capabilities.
That's why this Dog-uar or plain red car with a dog sitting on top is the perfect example of every person's car. All you need is a pup to make your very own Dog-uar.
12. Squad Goals
Disney princesses are known for dancing, singing, and generally being able to commune with animals. This dog decided to prove that it is a modern-day princess.
Instead of adding a cute bird or a little rabbit to its squad, it managed to wrangle a deer and a cat into joining it on its owner's stoop. This is not a trio anyone wants to mess with.
13. Let The Displeasure Be Known
There are certain highlights in every young dog's life. One of them is hitting the doggy park, sniffing all of the other dogs, and even grabbing a toy or two from a friend.
After enjoying a few minutes at the park, this owner decided it was time to head home. Their pup was less than enthused to realize that playtime had been cut short.
14. Homemade Snuggie
Creature comforts are an important part of all of our lives. Who doesn't love snuggling up in a warm blanket, turning on Netflix, and enjoying a good television binge session?
This dog only had one thing in mind when it snuggled into its blanket for the evening - comfort. Getting comfortable just so happened to involve chewing a snout-sized hole, and making a DIY snuggie. Hopefully, their owner didn't mind too much.
15. When Two Become One
These days selfies are a part of everyday life. Dogs make the perfect canine companion for cute photos, but they do need to be posed just right to get that Instagram-worthy image.
At first glance, something about this photo is off. If you noticed the snout pointing upwards, then good for you! This dog looked upright as the camera clicked, and a perfect meme-worthy photo was born. Rest assured, no snouts were harmed during this photoshoot.
16. A Rainbow Of Dogs
With hundreds of dog breeds in the world, it makes sense that dogs would come in all different shades from white to black. It's pretty rare to find a perfect rainbow of dogs, but this person managed it.
While some pups were out snoozing in the sunshine, this dad managed to find a gradient of dogs from beige to black. Now that's impressive!
17. Wake Up!
Bodies are pretty amazing. They keep animals alive, and they make all manner of unique noises. For one little puppy, he was enjoying a peaceful sleep until he was rudely awakened.
This is the face of a puppy that has just been awoken by its own flatulence. Dog toots can be just as loud as human ones, and this dog looks startled by this realization.
18. Attack Of The Tiger-Dog
Netflix's Tiger King really made the world think twice about owning exotic cats, which is why this rather tiger-looking animal caught this person's eye.
Fear not though, this striped animal is none other than a dog just chilling out in the shade. No tigers were found here, just a dog and some well-placed shadows.
19. Framing Is Everything
There comes a time in every young dog's life, where it is time to strike a pose and have an artistic photoshoot. For one owner, they saw the perfect shot and went for it.
Instead of a white dog with an impressive ruff of fur, this is a dog's face framed by another dog's tail. This is one of those photos that can't be planned.
20. These Boots Were Made For Walking
It's not every day that a fashionista puppy gets to don their favorite pair of leg-high boots and go for a stroll around town. After looking through her favorite mud puddles, this Pomeranian knew just what to wear.
With a snout to fashion, this pup chose the most beautiful muddy puddle available and donned the latest in Chanel couture from the wild.
21. Life Outside Of The Grooming Shop
Do you remember when you were young, and you saw your elementary teacher out in the wild or simply at the grocery store? It was probably a shocking moment to realize they had a life out of school.
For this little dog, they had always seen their groomer in the salon, giving them the latest in grooms. That is, until they saw them out on their daily walk, and were pretty shocked, just like how kids feel when they see their teachers.
22. Living On The Edge
Dogs that grow up around cats tend to be a bit confused. Are they a dog or are they a cat? Or are they something in-between? This confusion can lead to the adoption of cat-like behaviors.
What behaviors might those be? Well for one, climbing on top of cabinets and staring down like a cat is definitely one of them. Dogs don't land on their feet the way cats do though.
23. Hey There
If there is one thing most dogs hate, it is being alone for long amounts of time. They are instinctively pack animals, which means they gravitate towards people and other dogs.
One day this border collie said "Enough!" and decided to start poking its head out whenever someone walked by the fence. We have to admit, this is a great way to get attention and make new friends.
24. In Or Out
Every household has its own rules. In some, dogs arent allowed on the furniture. In others, if a dog decides to go out into the yard, then the door to the house is closed.
In an effort to live in the best of both worlds, this pup found a happy medium. Their butt stays inside, and their head stays outside. That way the door is always open.
25. An Italian Moment
Understanding the mind of a dog is something animal behaviorists have been trying to do for decades. In yet another moment of, "Why?" we have to wonder what the significance is of this single piece of pasta.
Maybe this piece of dry pasta is delicious, or maybe this dog got it confused with its favorite treat. Some mysteries cannot be solved and this is one of them.
26. All Grown Up
Unless a dog owner selects a specific breed, it can be pretty tough to know exactly how big or small a mutt will grow up to be. For this owner, they saw a round ball of fluff and knew it was the puppy for them.
What they didn't bank on was the dog growing into a miniature polar bear. This dog doesn't seem to understand that lapdogs are small, not enormous.
27. A Vet's Surprise
There comes a time in most male dogs' lives when they make the important trip to the vet to get neutered. Not only does this prevent them from fathering puppies, but sometimes it helps to modulate their moods.
As soon as this husky woke up it knew something important was missing, and his vet captured the moment he realized it.
28. What's Behind Door Number 2?
Dogs can't get it right all the time. Most houses have multiple doors to different rooms, closets, stairways, and more. On a good day, most dogs get confused about what door their human is behind.
For blind dogs, it is that much harder to determine which door their owner will be coming through. This lovely dog almost got it right, they were just off by a door.
29. Black And White
There are a lot of genetic anomalies that show up in dogs. Heterochromia is one of them, where the eyes are two different colors. While this dog does not have two different colored eyes, its coat is two-toned.
It looks like the fur was being printed for a black dog, but at the last moment, the cartridge rant out, and a partially white dog was left.
30. Walk Time
There are a couple of words in the English language that excite dogs, one of these is 'walk.' As soon as this word is uttered most dogs cannot help but get excited.
This little dog did more than get excited though. Her whole muzzle lit up, and she let out a very toothy grin. Dinner time must be an equally exciting affair for her.
31. An All Judgement Zone
Some dogs have a lot of personalities, just like people. Instead of minding his own business, this dog decided to let his judgment be known to his owner.
We don't know what this owner did to deserve that look, but maybe the gate keeping this dog inside the kitchen has something to do with it.
32. Best Friends Forever
The age-old adage would have the world thinking that cats and dogs simply don't get on. But that isn't true at all. When puppies and kittens grow up together, they quickly become best friends.
This puppy and kitten duo cannot help but roughhouse together, and that kitten can hold its own. These two won't stop playing anytime soon judging by those looks.
33. Just A Sniff
As soon as the urge to yawn takes over there is no stopping it, it has to happen. A dog's sense of smell is amazing which means they take the opportunity to smell everything.
An open dog mouth is a perfect place to sniff, at least that is what the dog not yawning thought. For both humans and dogs, be careful where you yawn, you never know when you might get a snout to the mouth.
34. A Cat-Dog's Paradise
Growing up around cats can be a bit discombobulating for a dog. They have certain instincts like wanting to belong to a pack and eating whatever they find on the ground.
Whenever cats enter the picture dogs get confused. Just look at this one, he thinks it is totally normal to hang out in a cat tree that was clearly not designed for mid-sized dogs.
35. Happy Birthday
Every year spent with a pet is one worth celebrating. Dogs become family members, and that means their birthdays deserve to be celebrated.
Dog birthday cakes have yet to really take off, but there are bakers that specialize in them. This cake must be full of treats judging by the eyes bugging out of this beautiful Bernese Mountain dog's face.
36. Running Out Of Ink
A litter of puppies can be anywhere from one puppy to eight or more. An ultrasound lets an owner know roughly how many puppies their dog will be having, but it is impossible to know what their coloring will be.
As this dog had her puppies, each one was slightly more faded than the last, until all that remained was a pure white one. This dog's fur ink definitely ran out after the first four pups.
37. A New Friend
In life, there are times when both people and dogs get jealous. Maybe a friend has a new friend, that you aren't friends with, or a new dog is brought into the home.
This owner decided to get creative with their LEGOs and create a life-size version of their beloved Corgi. The Corgi pictured was clearly not amused by the new addition to the home.
38. Caught Red-Pawed
As soon as a good smell wafts towards a dog's snout, it is almost impossible for them not to find out what the smell is. After catching a whiff of something in this purse, the dog could not help but stick a paw in.
As soon as that paw was dipped into the purse, the owner came in and caught them. This looks says, "Oh no, please don't get upset."
39. Ready For A Night Out
Have you ever walked by a mirror, and thought "Wow, I look good." If we had to guess, we would think that was the thought that crossed this dog's mind.
He is busy gazing into his eyes in the mirror and looks like he is getting worked up to go out on the town. Hopefully, he found the confidence he needed.
40. Meet Squishy
After a long day of guarding the house, every dog needs some time for rest and relaxation. For most, that means curling up on their bed or on the couch.
This little lady definitely spread out on the couch, but she prefers to sleep with her faced all squished into its side. How can that be comfortable?
41. A Permanent Paw Print
With so many different breeds, fur colors, and sizes, it can be hard to find dogs with marking that are truly unique. This puppy was fortunate enough to have one of the cutest markings ever.
Snoot has a perfect paw print on his nose, which makes it look like he is getting permanently booped by other dogs. Maybe this is a genetic marking that will be passed on to future generations.
42. Model Legs
Large dogs like Great Danes and Wolfhounds always manage to look majestic. This is in part due to their size, but also their breeding. Long legs are one of the main traits.
Instead of tucking those perfect legs away. this large doggo decided to show them off to the world. These have to be some of the best legs in the kennel club.
43. Puppy Dog Eyes
Being a dog is a lot of work. When you aren't guarding, you need to be watching whatever your owner is eating. Some of it could drop onto the floor at any minute.
Begging for food takes a lot of energy, and after a long day of dog work, this spaniel couldn't handle it anymore. While they are ready for a treat, their body is ready for a nap.
44. Picture Day
No year at doggy daycare would be complete without a class photo to memorialize all the dogs who had spent the year building friendships and sharing toys.
This class of handsome dogs brought their A-game, and everyone posed perfectly for the photo. Someone must have been waving some treats in front of them.
45. Leaf Attack
Nothing is quite as exciting for a dog as bursting out of a pile of leaves and attempting to snap some of them out of the sky.
This German Shepherd loves nothing more than jumping in a pile of leaves and attempting to snuffle out all of the smells that are emanating from them. Each leaf tells a story.
