I’m just gonna say it: I’m kind of annoyed that here we are in the year 2021 and we still haven’t trained our dogs to talk yet.

I don’t know if we’re to blame it or it’s all their fault, but either way, it’s pretty discouraging. I thought we’d have this down by 2015 at the latest…

So, because that is the reality that we live in, we have to rely on the “Thoughts of Dog” Twitter account to let us know what dogs and thinking about and why.

And boy, is it insightful…let’s take a look. You might never look at your dog the same way ever again…

1. Let’s look at the data.

Time to crunch the numbers.

according to my data. cuddles were up by 147% this year. hugs up 93%. and long hugs up by nearly 700%. while these stats with the human. may be hard to maintain. i think we should try

2. It doesn’t seem fair.

What’s the deal with the sticks, humans?

it feels pointless. to bring it up again. but if i am not allowed to bring my sticks inside. why is the human allowed a whole tree. do they not understand. that is where my sticks come from

3. What’s the point of all this?

How can I NOT fall asleep?

if you don’t want me to fall asleep. during the movie. what are we so cozy for

4. I can’t help it, okay?

But you know they’re still gonna take pictures.

sometimes. my tongue pokes out when i sleep. i am aware of this. because the human takes a picture every time. and shows it to me. as soon as i wake up

5. You’re not allowed to go back.

Work from home forever. Sound good?

the human just learned. they will be working from home. for the foreseeable future. this is simply a formality. i was never letting them go back anyway

6. Don’t rush me!

I need to take my time…

you cannot rush me. on my walks. if i don’t sniff enough things. i could fall behind. on the neighborhood dog leaderboard

7. A ball of fury!

And of FUR.

my tail is blurry. and my feets. are a tippy tappin

8. Keeping an eye on the important stuff.

Well, someone has to do it.

i just started my shift. watching the skittle under the fridge. it is a thankless job. but if nobody does it. and the skittle moves. we are in big trouble

9. I agree with this sentiment.

What do you think?

stairs are ridiculous. you cannot just change the ground. who do you think you are

10. Here, here!

We’re behind you on this one!

personally. i think every day. should be dog day

11. This is how everyone should live their life.

Anytime can be bedtime.

it is never too late. to go back to bed

12. You better go taste that.

You have to taste all the leaves and sticks, ya know?

the first crunchy leaf of the season. just fell in the yard. i will go taste it. to determine how spooky. things are about to get

13. What is this ball I keep hearing about?

Can anyone explain it to me?

i heard there is a ball dropping later. does anybody have the details? i am interested in that

Well, wasn’t that adorable…?

Do you have any dogs in your household?

Well, if so, you know we want to meet them!

Introduce us to them in the comments!
