It's a Dog's Life (Funny Pics)


"QUANTUM SHOT" #734
Link - by Avi Abrams




"Dogs Ready to Kill You": Pictures of Canine Discontent

When we wrote about Cats Ready to Kill You, we included a few shots of disgruntled and clearly upset dogs, which were possibly ready to kill you (given the opportunity), teaming up with cats or entirely on their own.

First, let me show you the Mightiest Killing Machine of all - the Super Wolf, or Andrewsarchus:


(image via)

Andrewsarchus is an extinct Mesonychid that lived in the Eocene epoch in the eastern Asia and is believed by many to be the largest land-living mammalian carnivore yet known - more info. It is possible that the frightful and huge Beast of Gevaudan was a surviving remnant of a Mesonychid, as it was described as having hooves, rather than paws. This frightful monster is what any child in history would have nightmares about.


(images via)

Dogs (and even modern wolves) come nowhere near the terror potential of this killing machine. Nevertheless, dogs can be unsettling and bizarre, and today we are going to show you the lighter side of dog expressions, in some of the funniest photography around.

Tough-looking characters:









All discombobulated:




When dogs are stressed they will not hesitate to let you know about it:


(images via 1, Square Dog Photography)

Dogs shake themselves to get back in physical (and emotional) shape. Photographer Carli Davidson sees in this an opportunity to take bizarre pictures (more here):

Not a happy camper (even if he's snug in a warm blanket):

Slightly confused about his buddy:



Looking lost -




Causes for dog stress

Being attacked by a horse can certainly ruin a dog's day:

Look into this dog's doleful, sad eyes:


(image via)

Is he stuck? -




Going places:






Emotional turmoil:










Interaction with children:



Dressing up for a wedding would definitely cause unnatural anxiety in a dog:





...especially when dressed as sinister Freddy Kruger:



Using more imagination? -




Princess Leia:



Oh no...




This uniform is much better: dressed for duty -




Another line of duty:




Distant Chewbacca relative? -



The ultimate Offense! -



...even worse:



Cats get dressed in a bad taste, too:

This is much better, as this outfit speaks volumes about cat's fighting ability (see more steampunk creations at Diarment):


(image credit: Rafa Maya)

Catching an impossible throw:



This dog just caught something, but not entirely sure what? or he's just too intent to please:


(image credit: Steffi Atze)

"Dogs Must be Carried!" - Being carried by its owner in an unscrupulous manner can stress the dog (not to mention the owner):


(image via)

Not giving a damn:



Taking charge:




Tough-looking cats are looking on all this with chilling intensity:




(images via)

... and they will not hesitate to come through: "Here's Johnny!!.." -

Oh, how I hate animals dressed up... A dog in clothes is not a dog, it's something that our mind would like to see, cuteness and so on - bizarre.
A dog looks like a dog - without clothes: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DQkBDiGg5jI

'This dog just caught something, but not entirely sure what? or he's just too intent to please'

That dog is obviously a member of a South American Tribe:

Or else he is holding a frisbee ;-)

  • This is one stunning post. I am awestruck. So much beauty and creativity! Thank you so very much. I love this art.
    Read more

  • Next to many other contributions I'm convinced, that this very nice series has to be enriched with a chapter about Art Nouveau in Finland, especially Helsinki and Riga in Latvia. In Helsinki you can find Art Nouveau combined with finnish mythology in an impressive way. Look here for a medium beautiful example:

  • Mexico City was embellished with one of Hector Guimard's Metro signs!... I had always wondered about it and now i now were it came from! hopefully i can share a pic with you n__n great post!
    Read more

  • Art Nouveau, especially Guimard's is indeed awesome.
    I almost regret kinda taking it for granted when I lived in Paris
    Read more

  • Art Nouveau is my favorite style as well. I can't wait to see future articles and photos.

  • Very cool! I had a bunch of Bandai robots, I forgot about those!

  • Jenny Agutter! I've loved her ever since "Walkabout."

  • WOW!! Don't do that with the plastic clip...bottles are not meant to be stored horizontally, BEER comes in contact with the bottle cap (gross).
    Read more

  • Amazing fotos!

  • That thing in the Japanese advertisement isn't a tape measure, it's a Dymo labelmaker. (See 'embossing tape' on Wikipedia.) You spin the dial to the right letter (or in this case the right hiragana character) and squeeze the trigger, and it imprints that letter on the tape.

  • That's not Corpus Christi Channel, that's Aransas Pass.

  • When I see this I think of classic arcade game "metal slug" and crazy vehicles that were in it. You could post some visions from this and other arcade games
    Read more

  • Oh, thanks. I would like to see more of these phantastic plastic toys from the early 60s - it reminds me of my own youth and the sense of wonder when I got the first one of these.
    Read more

  • All this cool stuff reminded me of the Gerry Anderson TV series' from the 60s, such as Stingray and Thunderbirds, any chance that Dark Roasted Blend could dig out any images from the British kids sci-fi magazine TV Century 21?
    Read more

  • I'd say guess it looks like the Japanese were looking forward to a rather violent future!

  • Here's some video of a unique Russian sidecar in action...

  • This sidecar: actually looks like an Orchid Island traditional boat, which makes me wonder if it isn't actually from Taiwan.

  • How could you leave out the picture of the lion in the sidecar, driving on the wall???

  • This sidecar is actually based on a Stoye II from East Germany

  • Some truly odd machines...

    Nothing's as svelte, though as the beautiful Vespa. Even with a sidecar, graceful as a cat. ^~~^

  • Henrik Toth's side car isn't based in a messerschmit because it has american markings and a fake rotary engine on it. The closest looking WW2 plane would be a P-47 Juggernaut but it's a bit of a stretch. 109's had sleek inline engines and were never bare metal.
    Read more

  • Another unique bike and sidecar was seen in an episode of CHiPS. The sidecar slid up and down on a track so the bike could lean into turns. A couple of bank robbers used it as an agile getaway vehicle.

  • Thank you...I think...for these wonderful and semi-disturbing pictures. Sadly, I'm pretty sure all of these bugs actually live in my backyard. Or at least their near-relatives do, and they seem to like nothing better than dropping in on cookouts on our back deck.
    Read more

  • Haha, Jake, sad to hear of your unwelcome guests... they like your cookouts so much that they even contacted our site to spread the word about them.

  • Thanks to the Brazilian Treehopper insect, I can't eat strawberries any more...

  • if i ever seen any of these in real life i would kill them with fire instantly. ffs

  • Cicadas are strange enough--never mind their odd cousins.

    If I understand correctly, they burrow underground and hibernate for seventeen years! That is an entire life time for a cat.

    And they're so loud! ^--^

  • I remember finding a nest of at least 10 mole crickets at the base of a tree, in the school playground. i was about 8 and they scared the sh#t outta me. had to be at least 2" long.

  • You had me going on this one. This is a scrumptiously deelishis post!

  • I guess some things never change. That Isuzu ad looks just like one of the promotional films for the Chevrolet Corvair released around 1959 which showed Corvairs jumping over each other and driving on two wheels in perfectly choreography.

  • Thing you called "abandoned apartment building" looks like it really a Daryal bistatic phased-array early warning radar

  • I really enjoyed the Russian ads on the back of the photographic paper.

  • agree with KoraxDC, its not an apartament building, we had same type og radiolocation building in Latvia some time ago, in 1992 or so it was demolished
    Read more

  • That's not a mobile phone; in fact, it's not even a two-way communication system. It is merely a portable radio receiver (almost certainly a crystal set)
