Even the best-trained, best-behaved dogs have their moments of madness. And while some pet parents are willing to forgive and forget, others prefer to name and shame their pets for their misdeeds. From excessive eating to cat litter picking and inappropriate humping, there are dog shaming memes that sum up the odd, almost indescribable experiences that can come with owning dogs.

Below are more than 50 dog-shaming memes that we hope will make you feel a little better about your pet pooch’s antics.

Excessive Eaters

Most dogs love to eat. They love to eat their own food, and beg for human food, and if they don’t believe they’re getting all of the good stuff, they will take it upon themselves to find extra food around the house. We might know that eating a whole stick of butter is bad for dogs, or that caffeine can make dogs quite ill, but you try telling the dogs that. They don’t listen.

Chewers

And then there are the dogs that just love to chew. Not so they can eat whatever they tear to shreds but seemingly just for the sake of destruction and to make a mess. Some dog owners have found nothing is sacred with laptops and cell phones even being the target of some mischievous mutts.

Poopers and Sprinklers

Pooping: it’s perfectly natural, and all dogs do it. But, while some are fastidiously clean and will only poop in certain places at certain times, others adopt a more carefree attitude to their toileting habits. But, if a dog’s gotta go, a dog’s gotta go.

Humpers

Humping is probably one of the most awkward behaviors, at least in the eyes of their owners. It is a release for the dog, and while it can be sexual in nature, it isn’t always. Dogs hump when they get excited. Some dogs hump when they get anxious. Some seem to hump for seemingly no reason at all.

Cat Poop Lovers

Cat poop holds a certain fascination for our pet dogs. If you have cat litter in your home, you probably know the noise of your cat covering up its business, and if you have a dog, too, you almost certainly know the noise of your dog picking cat litter out of the tray. And, apparently, it doesn’t have to be cat poop. Dogs are seemingly fascinated with the poop of other animals, too.

Home Wreckers

As well as unwanted chewing, there is a surprisingly wide range of ways that a dog can make short work of any room in the house. You can give them toys, exercise them before you go out, and even leave the radio on, but some dogs just wait for the coast to be clear before they have a good rummage for mischief.

Other

Some behaviors and memes don’t fit into any category, but that doesn’t make them any less funny or worthy of inclusion. From ant-snorting pups to unwanted alarm clocks, dogs really are everything to their owners.

Conclusion

Dogs are our faithful companions. They are part of the family. They can also be difficult to live with, have annoying and seemingly inexplicable habits, and routinely gross us out. But, most owners wouldn’t have it any other way!
