Rules

  1. Posts must be related to dogs or dog ownership and must not be void of content.
  2. This is a neutral space. No bigotry or personal attacks. Criticism should be polite and constructive.
  3. No automated content. This includes AI generated imagery, post body, articles, comments or automated accounts.
  4. No advertising or self-promotion.
  5. Illegal or unethical practices are frowned upon, and any comments or posts suggesting them will be removed. This includes, but is not limited to, backyard breeding, ear and tail cropping, fake service animals, negative reinforcement, alpha/pack/dominance theory, and eugenics.
  6. No judging or attacking community members who care for dogs with cropped ears, docked tails, or those from puppy mills or questionable sources. While we discourage these practices (per Rule 5), all dogs deserve loving homes and compassionate care regardless of their background or physical alterations.

Shaky dog pictures are the funniest shit ever

This looks like the distorted photos from Amityville Horror.

Ha, I looked at the image before I read the caption and thought that it's nose was supposed to be an open human mouth.

[–] ickplant@lemmy.world 7 points 5 days ago

The spot on his back and one ear looked like pancakes, so I thought you took your boy to the beach to throw pancakes at him.

I only throw cheese at my boy. I bet he would love me to frisbee a pancake right into that fat mouth of his

That's not a dog, that's The Boiled One

This looks exactly like the picture I drew of a dog when I was in kindergarten that everybody said looked like a black man with bunny ears.

I feel vindicated but I'm still a terrible artist.

Just an Afghan Hound being goofy, they have two modes, aloof and noble, and silly goofy...

I didn't know they came in any other color but wheat. I saw two on the tram while commuting, and they were so sweet.

[–] MalReynolds@piefed.social 2 points 5 days ago

Also white and yes they're sweethearts but very independent dogs, like half cat dogs.

Hallow Knight?

Humanity is incapable of understanding me, my true form can only be revealed in photographs.

But... you can see his face. He looks so happy! I'd sleep well with this guy watching over me.
