21 Dogs That Made Really Poor Life Decisions

Dogs are known for many things but being forward-thinking is not one of them, they’re very much an ‘in the moment’ kind of pet. Leave the house? They lose their sh*t. Return home? They go batshit crazy. Throw a ball for them to chase? Then no thought is given to what’s in between the dog and the ball. Ah, you gotta love em.

This lack of planning pretty much guarantees that dogs get themselves into right pickles from time to time. Fortunately for us, when these poor pups did something a little shortsighted, their owners acted fast to ensure the hilarious moment was caught on camera…
