There is no shortage of things in this life that make us feel less smart than we actually are, and facing those things is not easy. After all, a bruised ego can easily get out of control. So we made this list of dopey doggo memes to give you some pawspective on your silliness and to remind you that no matter how dopey you might feel, there is always a doggo out there who is dopier than you.

Supposedly being the smartest species on the planet comes with a heavy responsibility of maintaining that superior intelligence and an air of superiority in general. It is why we like to live high up in the sky, a place we have no business living in when considering the traits of our species. So you better believe that we understand the pain that you feel when you find yourself falling from grace so ungracefully. Whether it be walking into a glass pane like a doggo who was too excited to leap into the paddling pool outside, or simply falling asleep in your food bowl like a pupper who has been well and truly tuckered out by the busy day that they have had. We know the pain and we know how to make you feel better.

With even dopier dogs of course! So we invite you to dive into this collection of dumb doggos with the knowledge that you will be proven to be the smarter species as you get to see the true disparities between our species. For example even a hooman with the lowest of IQs would still be hard pressed to find themselves stuck head first in the sleeve of a shirt they were trying to put on. Or another example is that of the doggo who is determined that to have eaten and puked is better than to have never eaten at all. We will never truly understand how deep their dopiness goes but we can rest assured in the knowledge that we will never get close.

Would it not be grand to wait until the split second before they try to take your employee card photo and then break into a ridiculous face like this so that your photo on the company database makes you look at least 30% more unhinged than you actually are. That way just by being relatively normal and attaining normal levels of goals you could actually be celebrated for your achievements and appreciated a lot more. It's a gentle reminder that when the goal posts are moved by the corporation we can also move them right back.

Honestly one of the finer suggestions we have seen with how to handle a sneaky pupper. Not only does this ridiculous costume stop this doggo from attempting their daring escape it is also too embarrassing to be seen in. even if he could still escape while wearing the costume they would still be ridiculed by all dogs and hoomans around them. Not to mention that they will be so darn easy to spot when you go looking for them. 10/10 pawrenting right here. Truly impressed with this passive aggressive solution.
