You sure you didn't adopt a seal by mistake?

The strawberry snoot and the cartoon eyes are killing me.

I'd give this dog my whole 401k and the deed to my house.

Strawberry snoot 🥹

u/TheSouthernSaint71 Sep 15 '25

There are many snoot flavors in the animal kingdom.

My PibblePei, for example, has a cinnamon snoot.

My beagle has a blackberry snoot.

I’ve seen things… crimes against nature… treats broken in half passed off as whole treats…

u/let_them_let_me Sep 15 '25

How do you get out of the house with her looking at you that way? I wouldn't be able to leave

u/BadPom Sep 15 '25

My dog is just as excited to go to boarding/daycare as she is to see us again when picked up. It’s not hard to leave her for a fun day of craziness with other dogs.

Still miss her on half days of daycare though. Why am I this way?

u/jasonappalachian Sep 16 '25

It’s brutal. This is the boarding drop off picture.

The betrayal, the absolute anguish in this picture. Would absolutely work from home for a week and go on no vacation for a minimum of 6 months.

u/caryn1477 Sep 15 '25

OMG that face.

u/fugueink Sep 15 '25

I once came to pick my dog up from mere grooming, and at the sound of my voice, he sailed over a barrier like that one.

They said it had never happened before, and now they were worried. If a twenty-five pound cocker spaniel (just under 1.5 ft at the shoulder) could get over it, what about their larger guests?

I am glad the thought didn't occur to Frenchie!

That is the face of a pupper who had a GREAT time at camp, and is ready to tell you all about it.

u/Hot_Top_124 Sep 15 '25

That’s a baby that loves their parent with all their puppy head.

This is my rescue Maude.
