Hey dog parents, we're pawsitively sure you're going to find something howlarious to relate to in this post. We love our doggos more than life itself, but they really do put us in some hairy situations sometimes! Whether it's the sniffing of someone else in a very personal way or deciding on the most inconvenient spot to relieve themselves, every dog owner finds themselves in some sort of embarrassing situation with their puppers every once in a while. It's funny when it's not happening to you, so we collected some embarrassing confessions from doggo pawrents that resulted in howlarious doggie disasters.

All you can do is apologize and laugh about it later because your dogs don't know any better! Each of these stories will hopefully help you feel less embarrassed the next time your perfect pupper acts out in public. It's not their fault they don't understand hooman rules!

    • PickleInterlopingCat 5 hr. ago . edited 4 hr. ago I was getting on a train and the platform was very busy. My dog was still a puppy so I had her in my arms. She lent over and licked the ear of a random guy trying to get on the train at the same time; the look he gave me indicated that he didn't believe that it was my dog that was the culprit.

    It's weird to assume that a person licked your ear rather than the dog they are holding, right? Like, dogs lick people all the time, and people don't often lick others. At least, we don't.

    Awesome_Sauce_007 1 day ago . edited 1 day ago We went to the self service pet wash, and Jack ate at least 3 dozen handmade treats that were in a box that an employee was loading into a display case. She left the box on the floor to walk around the counter so I could pay for his bath, and he helped himself. He dragged me across the floor. There was no stopping him. We were asked to not return. He was sorry, not sorry.

    Okay, well, this is clearly the worker's fault. Who leaves a whole box of dog treats on the floor when there are dogs allowed? Dogs are not known for their self-control.

    jindobunny 7 hr. ago My lab is a service dog, and when he was in training, I took him into a public restroom (my trainer knew and was fine with it for training purposes). But while I was in the stall, he peeped under the space into the next stall. It was occupied. I heard the woman there say, "oh hello there!" I was so embarrassed.

    fobowr 5 hr. ago We were crossing the street and my dog decided that it was the perfect time to take a dump. So he starts pooping right in the middle of street while the light turns green for the cars. And I wait there for him to finish pooping while all the cars do the same.

    Enough_Individual_91 7 hr. ago My two dogs both peed on a lady's dress. She was talking to me, and my boys both were sniffing around behind her, and out of nowhere, one after another, they just strolled past her and did a quick mark on her dress, she did not realise but some other random did we looked at one another and I quickly rapped up the chat and went, the wee was clearly visible on her white dress ☑

    This is Pablo! My sweet little test of strength sent by the universe I love my dog so much, he is my best friend and literal child. I talk to him like he's my toddler. We have so much love for each other and I'd never trade him for anything. I do however believe that Pablo was potentially a in a former life. He loves to really try and put me in the most awkward and embarrassing situations that I need to claw some form of dignity back out of.

He chased my dad's friend's' dog around the living room, determined to hump the LIFE out of him. 3. He's stole many picnics and outside treats, even when left unsupervised. 4. Has pulled me down a hills which I fell down mid air to grab a ball...

    Odinsdad70 1 day ago Walking in downtown Flagstaff when he was a puppy. Couple college age girls dining at an outdoor restaurant thought he was cute and wanted to pet him. One picked him up and he absolutely destroyed her dinner. I felt horrible and paid for both their dinners

    Hmasteringhamster · 5 hr. ago chocolate We were training recall when my boy saw a father and son playing catch on the other side of the field (half soccer field half empty grass area). We were on opposite ends and we had to run after him fearing he'd jump on them. He just happily played fetch with them retrieving the ball if they miss it. It was a really good drop it, right in front of the dad and auto sit he never does this when - he's playing with us! He did this for 5 mins pretending he doesn

    SweetPamalaJean ⚫ 7 hr. ago . We were at a downtown arts market. She was still a puppy. I turn to look at something and as I turned back she had her nose up this lady's dress. She was about to punch me. I apologized over and over. She was not happy but I did not get punched.

    . Odd_Instruction_2551 5 hr. ago My labs are littermates (ugh!) and have been kicked out of one training facility, two groomers and three daycares because they're rowdy af. They've jumped out of the car at PetSmart while we were doing curbside pickup. Wouldn't have been so bad if they hadn't RUN into the store. My dogs are menaces.

    DodgyQuilter 7 hr. ago At the beach. Offlead. Sprinted away and crashed the local IHC kids' picnic. Ate their fish and chips. Got many pats as I puffed up the beach to retrieve the delinquent. Those kids were fantastic, their carers were extremely tolerant, I just wanted the beach to open up and swallow me.

    pickledpl_um 5 hr. ago Not my dog, but my friend's English lab that I was dog-sitting at the time: stole a marshmallow right out of a toddler's hand. Kid just kept looking at his hand like the marshmallow was still there, he just couldn't see it.

    My dogs: god, where to start. 1. My last dog, an elderly disabled pittie, could not walk 50 feet at once. Unless it was to slip out between the bars on the gate and zoom down the street after a little old lady who walked past our house every day (and did not speak English). He adored her and just wanted to hang out; she was terrified because daily this dark brown pit bull would come chasing her down the street, only to be followed by a shouting woman.

    2. My current dog, an American lab mix, has at various times: -peed on my friend's carpet, she was so excited to see her -peed on my friend's door mat, she was so excited to see her -peed on the patio at an outdoor restaurant, she was so excited to see my friend -stole a wheel of brie off a table at a party (where I was specifically asked to bring my then-new dog, I swear) and then went back for seconds -stole and ate a whole stick of butter my roommate was thawing

    sea621 4 hr. ago My lab was so scared of the stairs at my law school but also used to be scared of the elevators. The law building was dog friendly. I brought him once and my then-bf had to carry him down the stairs. My dog peed out of pure terror. Right down the front of my ex. This was maybe 2 weeks after we started dating. Lol.

    NameofmyfirstGun 2 hr. ago Gus the lab loves to chomp ice. Our ice maker quit working on our 11 month old fridge. The repair guy came out before the warranty expired and Gus thanked him by marking him while he was on the kitchen floor fixing the ice maker. The repair man was understanding.
