Ever made a mistake that you instantly knew could have been avoided. Have you ever missed out on common sense and gotten into an embarrassing situation? So has everyone, but humans avoid the worst pitfalls thanks to having the ability to understand consequences.
Dogs, not so much.
Let’s take a walk down the ruff side and check out these dogs that instantly regretted their poor choices.
1. Little Push Please?
This dog thought of a new way to climb the steps. But he didn’t realize that he was a little wide in the rear to make it work. You can just bet that he was still willing to try and just wanted his master to help give a push.
2. Tumbler
Almost everyone loves slides. But we’re willing to bet that this bulldog isn’t one of them. At least he was able to look at the camera right before he flies off. Bet he’s glad he finally got off that crazy thing.
3. Caught in the Blinds Spot
This little pug didn’t take long to get caught up in the blinds. The owner was kind enough to snap a picture before breaking him out, but we get the feeling this is just going to happen again. Definitely one of our favorite pooches.
4. A Hole Lotta Fun
This poor dog got stuck in a hole in a wall. Here he’s looking at his master with those cute little puppy dog eyes asking for help. He got out, but this picture lives on for dog lovers!
5. Not Quite a Rockstar
This poor dog was stuck on a rock in the middle of a lake. No idea how he got out there in the first place. But you can just see the look of “Help me master” on his face. Wonder if this hound learned its lesson.
6. The Sphinx of the Fence
This dog is posing just like a little Sphinx as it waits trapped in the fence door. At least she looks calm and relaxed while she waits for her owners to take their photos. But maybe this happens so often it’s just business as usual.
7. A Wheel Bad Decision
We don’t know how this dog got stuck, but we can tell that it realized the error of its ways. We know it looks scary, but the redditor posted that the dog was rescued with any injury or stress, so all’s well that ends well. Let’s just hope that these big holes are moved someplace out of reach.
8. Where Was He Going?
This dog saw a tiny ledge above the stairs and had to go explore. But they realized far too late that they were stuck with no room to turn around. Jumping down didn’t even seem like a safe option. But thankfully the owners were there to save the day.
9. Coat of Arms
This dog was just having fun squeezing into their owner’s coat sleeve. But they ended up stuck when they tried to squeeze all the way through. The pup got out just fine, but we wonder if they had to cut the sleeve to make room.
10. Touchdown!
This might be a good reason why you don’t see too many football dogs out on the field. Just look at the shock on this hound’s face when they tried to play catch with the pigskin. At least we know he won’t fumble it down the field.
11. Shipping Error
Think this dog might have been a little too curious about what was in the box. Now they’re stuck and looking positively cute about trying to play off their mistake. But do you think we should call this dog a ‘boxer’?
12. Watering Can’s Revenge
This dog had a habit of chewing holes into plastic objects like this watering can. Well one day he decided to peek his head into the hole he just made, maybe to admire his work. But he got stuck in the process. This picture is the face of “Human Help Me”, isn’t it?
13. Sliding Into…
What is it about slides that are so well loved? The speed and fun of racing down a small slope draws fans all over the world. But this dog doesn’t seem too excited and likely regrets everything. At least the ride is just about done.
14. The Wrong Neighborhood
What did this dog do? Look at how those cats loom looking at the poor rascal. Whatever happened, you can just feel the dog’s energy, almost as if its saying “I didn’t mean it! It won’t happen again!” Is this what happens when cats and dogs live together?
15. But wait? How?!
Imagine coming home from a long day of work or an afternoon’s shopping run. You hear your dog howling for your attention, so you go and find them tucked into a narrow corner like this. Of course you save them, but you have to wonder what sequence of events led to the world’s first folding doggo.
16. The Dog in the Plastic Mask
This Golden Retriever loves sticking their head into things. But they may have gone a little too far this time when they went poking into this little dog toy. Now they’re stuck and don’t know what to do about it. Quick master, help!
17. Cereal Trouble
This dog must have been trying to get to the toy at the bottom of the box and didn’t plan how they’d get out. Now they have to sit and wait for their owners to stop laughing so he can get help in getting out. But think about it. This could be a good ad image for “The cereal even dogs love!”
18. Swinger Stinger
Swinging isn’t for everyone, especially for this dog who got stuck on the family swing. The owner reported how they just looked away for a moment when they heard their faithful hound whining. They turned around and saw they got stuck on the swing and needed help getting back down.
19. Bonk!
This dog just wanted a nice day playing Frisbee with their owner. But one unlucky catch landed them squarely into a tree that didn’t want to play along. The dog was fine though, proving that its bark isn’t worst than its bite.
20. Don’t Lose Your Head
These two cute puppies were looking for food when one of them gets a bowl stuck on their head. The other dog is trying to figure out how to help while the owner snaps this photo and laughs. Just goes to show that doggy derpiness can start early.
21. How I Say Goodbye
This dog hates seeing their loved ones go, so they shove their head in the tiny pet door and watch them leave. Sure it’s sweet if you’re on the other side, but on this side it just looks silly. Especially when you realize this dog looks like a black-furred turkey.
22. Not what I expected
This dog was still on the leash when he got loose from his owner and ran down a slide at the pool. He likely was looking to play hide and go seek and never thought he’d end up taking a dive. This dog took the plunge and paid for it. But at least they could work on their doggy paddle.
23. Fenced-In
This poor pup was just trying to explore when they got caught in the fence bars. Look at that sad little face, pleading with the human for help. We’re glad the little guy made it out just fine, but gladder that the owner caught this moment on film.
24. Silly Snake-Dog
This isn’t a weird Snake-dog hybrid, it’s a dog that got caught while traveling through their owner’s coat sleeves. We don’t know how the dog ended up in this situation, but the results are clear, the owner is going to have to step in to get them loose. We wonder how they did it.
25. Hide Under the Covers
No, this isn’t a scene from a horror movie. It’s just a doggy oopsie! This dog slipped under the sofa covers but couldn’t quite figure out how to get out. Now they were stuck and had to wait until their owners stopped laughing to get them loose.
26. Classic Comedy
This dog just wanted to have a nice day playing catch outside. Little did they know it’d end up with one of the classic forms of slapstick ever. We don’t have to describe it when you can just look at this poor dog’s face.
27. Call the Fire Department
We’ve heard of cats in trees, but dogs? Well that’s what happened with this little guy who went climbing and had no way to get back down. Look at their face as they plead with the human to put down the camera and lend them a hand.
28. Can You Dig It?
This dog was always curious about the other side of the fence. So they dug a little hole and shoved their head in. It was only when it was too late that they realized they had no way of digging themselves back out. But this other dog is here for the rescue.
29. Double Rainbow
This dog was trying to take a nap on its favorite sidewalk. How was it supposed to know that it’d end up with a colorful new coat? It does make a great rainbow picture for sure.
30. Winter Sports
This dog thought it’d be fun to go sliding down the hill. But one look at his face shows that he’s not enjoying going that fast. It does make for a hilarious show that we’re sure makes their owners laugh all the time.
31. Look Before You Leap
This dog got more than they bargained for when they jumped into this hammock. Now they are stuck with no way to get out until their owner gets them loose. The lesson’s obvious here, but we have to wonder, does anyone have luck with hammocks?
32. He’s Busting Out
This dog was at the Kennel ready for pick up when they somehow got out and on top of the cage. No one saw how the dog got there, but they could tell the dog was too afraid to get back down. So the humans saved the dog so he could get adopted. What a great first impression!
33. Couch Fishing
So this dog must have seen something interesting in between the couch cushions and ended up getting trapped for their trouble. While it’s funny seeing what looks like a dog colored burrito shoved between the pillows, they did have to get them out. Wonder if the dog got what they were looking for.
34. Tunnel Vision
This dog doesn’t look like it was ready for this trip down the slide. Look at it trying to slow itself down with a face that howls “wait wait NOoooooo”. The owner looks like they’re having a good time at least.
35. Chain Link Oops
This dog made a mistake jumping for this fence. All they ended up doing was having a funny collision that their owner caught on tape. But how did this happen? Maybe it was a game of catch gone terribly funny.
36. Hang On!
This dog doesn’t look too bothered by being trapped inside of this hangar. Or maybe they’re just trying to play off their mistake to hide their embarrassment. Whatever the case is, don’t they look distinguished despite the hint of yellow plastic?
37. Stuck with Sticks
This dog was so excited to play with sticks, but they didn’t realize how sticks work on steps. Now they’re stuck unless they drop the stick, but the dog is sticking to their choice. The Redditor mentioned how distressed the dog was about this sticky situation, which only makes it funnier.
38. Ok He’s Done
They say you can tell a lot about a scene from a picture. Well in this one, you can see the exact moment that this dog was done playing catch for the day. It was probably embarrassing to imagine a Frisbee smacking you in the face and the dog just wanted to go indoors and hide. There’s always next time!
39. Twisty Twiney
This dog got so caught up in this hammock that all it could do was complain until it got loose. But this moment captured on photo looks like it was trapped in tape instead. One thing’s for sure, this dog likely avoided hammocks for a while after that.
40. Branching Up
This dog didn’t quite stick the landing when they tried getting over this branch. So now they are trapped with no way to get down until the helpful human gets them loose. But maybe this wasn’t an accident and the dog just wanted to see what being a leaf might feel like.
41. Feeling Flushed
We don’t even want to know how this happened. But the Pug clearly got stuck in the toilet and has no idea how to get out. Do you think the owners had a hard time believing this or was this par for the course for this funny doggo? What would you do if you saw this?
42. Stings Like a Bee
If this dog looks strange it’s because its cheeks were swollen. As it turns out, they made the mistake of swallowing a bee that did a number on his poor insides. At least they’re better now and on the way to recovery. So that takes the ‘sting’ out of it.
43. Mistakes were made
This poor dog was just trying to squeeze behind what looks like a shed when they found themselves caught between a fence and a hard place. You can just see the embarrassment on their face as they look to the human asking for help. We bet they won’t squeeze into small spaces after this is all over.
44. The Not-so-Great Escape
This dog was determined to bust out of its caged in area. But didn’t account for how heavy fence doors could be. So now they just ended up hanging out until the owners could get them loose.
45. No Fetch in the House
This dog was determined to bring his favorite stick in the house. Too bad they didn’t realize how doors quite work with such long sticks which left them looking silly for this photo. Still it’s for the best, because that stick would knock so much stuff over.
