We rarely get silly moments of our pets on tape, and when we do, it’s always hilarious. We often get the urge to share it on social media afterward to share the laughter with everyone. Sometimes, these funny pet videos will even turn into memes.

Pets are often used in internet memes.

Calculations Intensify from r/gifs

According to Webopedia, internet memes are concepts or ideas that spread from one person to another via the internet. Most of them are images or videos of people and animals with witty captions. Because of the silliness and never-ending laughter that people’s pets bring to the internet, animal memes quickly became popular in the meme culture.

We have heard of Doge, the “much wow” Shiba Inu, and Bad Pun Husky, who brings us corny puns that always make people laugh. These memes offer both hilarity and adorableness at the same time. One other hilarious meme is the Calculating Dog meme.

If you are deep into memes, then you should have encountered this one. The meme was originally a video clip, which was later converted into a gif in 2015. It showed a dog carrying a large tree branch in its mouth, stuck on one side of a narrow bridge. The problem is how could he get across the bridge with his stick?

The dog’s owner was calling out to him on the opposite side of the bridge.

As the dog approached the bridge’s entrance, he had no other choice but to stop since the handrail’s pillars prevented him from passing through. The dog took a brief pause and tested several angles to fit the stick on the narrow bridge until he finally found the solution. He tilted his head with the stick and victoriously passed through.

The original video was lost on YouTube, and WaggleTV uploaded it back on the internet. The hilarious clip received five million views. You could also see funny gif variations of it on popular meme pages. The most popular gif features floating mathematical equations popping around the dog’s background as he stops and calculates the correct angle.

With the rise of other animal memes, this dog should be in the ‘old but gold’ section

However, there are those memes that are hard to forget, and this should be one of them. No matter how many Doges and Grumpy Cats take over the internet, this one deserves a golden spot on the meme chart.

Whether the dog used quantum mechanics or a dash of physics in his calculations, it all worked out very well for him.
