When I was a little kid, I was convinced, CONVINCED, that my dog Quincy was going to learn to talk one day

How could he not? We were so close and connected and he obviously understood what I was saying all the time, so what was the holdup?

Well, sadly, Quincy never did learn to talk and I’m still not over it all these years later.

But the next best thing is the “Thoughts of Dog” Twitter account that gives us human beings an inside look into what dogs are really thinking about when they’re chilling around the house or frolicking in the yard.

Are you ready to gain some serious knowledge about your pooch? Let’s take a look!

1. Thank goodness for you.

Holding it all together.

the human has been working from home the last couple days. and every so often. they let me participate in the video calls. all the other humans cheer when they see me. i am the only thing holding their company together

2. You should enjoy it!

Everyone wants to be your friend.

occasionally during our walks. someone will pass us. and completely ignore my human. but whisper hello to me. i really enjoy this

3. Just letting it all hang out.

Let your freak flag fly!

there are no rules these days. i didn’t even put my collar on today. just walked around the house naked

4. Time to load up on food.

We wish you well in your quest!

there are many humans in the household right now. and they all seem to have snacks. so i’m going to convince each and every one of them. that i have not eaten. in several weeks

5. The small human neighbor.

You have a new best friend!

the small neighbor human came over. with an early gift for me. it was a little locket for my collar. and inside was a pebble. they said they picked it up. the first time they went on a walk with me. i would do anything. for the small neighbor human

6. And they took you to “show and tell”!

How much fun that must have been!

the small neighbor human. had show and tell today at school. and with my human’s permission. they brought me. i just sat beside them and smiled. as they told the whole class. why i’m their best friend

7. Dogs really don’t like these things.

So be careful with them, okay?

personally. i don’t think you should set off fireworks. for any reason ever

8. You’re helping make a love connection.

How did it work out?!?!

at the park today. i noticed the human glancing at another human. so i made my way over. and sat on their foot. forcing my human to come apologize for me. i am a matchmaker

9. Demanding a refund.

Well, that didn’t go as planned.

it was very chilly during our walk today. when i tried to hop in a puddle. i slid across it instead. i am not a penguin. i would like a refund

10. Nothing wrong with being fancy sometimes.

Hey, you do you!

sometimes. you have to cross your paws. and let everyone know. you’re feeling fancy

11. You can never leave the house again.

I’m pretty sure all dogs feel this way.

if you start leaving the house again. who will be around to say. ohhh big stretch. every time i do a stretch

12. I have a feeling you ate it…

It definitely sounds like something you’d do…

the small neighbor human and i. have been working on a puzzle. for quite some time. we only have one piece left. but we can’t find it anywhere. i hope i didn’t eat it. that sounds like something i might do

Well, you know we want to meet them!
