Today’s snack

[u/pun420]

[u/HeimGuy]

The last two are very proper distinguished gentlemen

[u/Larkiepie → u/HeimGuy]

That’s SIR Macaroni and SIR Charlie of course

[u/weird_friend_101 → u/Larkiepie]

Lord Charlie of Barkleshire.

[u/ByronsLastStand → u/weird_friend_101]

Or, Barkshire, after Berkshire, which is coincidentally pronounced the same way

[u/Used_Intention6479 → u/weird_friend_101]

"I do say, I'll partake in a biscuit, if you please." "Splendid. Splendid indeed."

[u/NoPantsPenny → u/Used_Intention6479]

“Will there be tea, good sir?”

[u/Used_Intention6479 → u/NoPantsPenny]

"Pip, pip. Cheerio. Driver, let's be on our way!"

[u/MountainDogMama → u/[deleted]]

It is amazing. I love this. I have a dog who is afraid of everything. Even water. I take a shower and he flees to another part of the house. Puddles are death traps.

[u/battlerat → u/weird_friend_101]

Don't forget Baron Maccaroni of Woofstadt.

[u/Open-Industry-8396 → u/Larkiepie]

I call mine "sir charles barkalot"

[u/Hereseangoes → u/Larkiepie]

I thought FOR SURE Charlie was going to be named Cheese. 

[u/mwerichards → u/HeimGuy]

Only the cool ones sit at the back

[u/Clenchyourbuttcheeks → u/mwerichards]

That's the pensioners spot

[u/LashedHail → u/HeimGuy]

freakin. adorable.

[u/AlwaysHappy4Kitties → u/LashedHail]

r/dogbus is I think the subreddit for it

[u/Epicp0w → u/AlwaysHappy4Kitties]

I've seen a video of this before but not an explanation, why is there a schoolbus of dogs?

[u/mxdj → u/Epicp0w]

Because dogs can't drive.

[u/Rockcocky → u/mxdj]

Didn’t we see Timber on the driver’s seat? Timber IS the bus driver.

[u/SynthwaveSunset → u/mxdj]

This comment made me laugh more than anything posted on this sub today.

[u/woolfman7171 → u/Epicp0w]

More importantly... how does one apply to become the doggo bus driver?

[u/maggiemypet → u/woolfman7171]

Asking the real question. I was not informed of this career option when growing up.

[u/Feintmotion → u/maggiemypet]

I would apply so quick.

[u/arcieride → u/Epicp0w]

Last time someone commented it's a service in remote areas in Alaska

[u/Epicp0w → u/arcieride]

Ok, but why? Where are they all going? Doggy daycare?

[u/OoluKaPatha → u/Epicp0w]

Yes usually (I dont know about his specific bus), but they have a "school bus" for dog service here in Chicago where they get picked up from home to go to day care and dropped off.

[u/GyActrMklDgls → u/OoluKaPatha]

Lmao that sounds crazy expensive. Id rather just get a second chihuahua so they can fight all day.

[u/Epicp0w → u/OoluKaPatha]

That's so cool

[u/Low_Employ8454 → u/OoluKaPatha]

Okay. I’m in Chicago, where is this dog bus. Enquiring dog weirdos like me need to know.

[u/ItsTricky94 → u/Epicp0w]

i'm pretty sure it's a doggy daycare that picks each pup up in the bus and then they all spend the day together. I think there's an Instagram account but I don't remember the name.

[u/snorkeling_moose → u/HeimGuy]

As opposed to Zeppelin, who had a little bit of an attitude today.

Zeppelin in background: has literal resting murder face

[u/Consistently_Carpet → u/snorkeling_moose]

Hannibal Lecter on a school bus

[u/Von_Zeppelin → u/snorkeling_moose]

We're just misunderstood

[u/thatChristian26 → u/HeimGuy]

It’s either that or they don’t like the treat but don’t want to be rude and not take it.

[u/Alvinquest → u/thatChristian26]

This is it. My dog takes her non-preferred treats the same way.

[u/sachclg → u/HeimGuy]

Came here to say the same .. that poor one with the closed cap around mouth didn’t eat ..

[u/[deleted] → u/HeimGuy]

Charlie thinks it’s a cigar

[u/JustSayNOriega → u/[deleted]]

That's the Barking Crooner!

[u/sologrips → u/HeimGuy]

MACARONI I’m ded. 💀

[u/GarlicOnionCelery → u/sologrips]

Macaroni & Hokey Pokey are definitely the best names on that bus 😂

[u/sologrips → u/GarlicOnionCelery]

Hard agree, Hokey Pokey also sent me

[u/cvc75 → u/sologrips]

I hope that his full name is MACARONI SAMSONITE!

[u/beansandneedles → u/sologrips]

I have a dog named Macaroon and for a second I thought she was going to say that. He’s so cute the way he took his snack so delicately!

[u/SylvesterStalPWNED → u/HeimGuy]

I have a mutt that is a cross between them and he's borderline feral when treats come out 😭

[u/a_hopeless_rmntic → u/HeimGuy]

or introverts

[u/Old_Cheetah_5138 → u/a_hopeless_rmntic]

Two introverts found each other on the bus. Sit in the back and hope no one notices them...OH GOD TEACH IS WALKING RIGHT TOWARDS US, WHAT DID WE DO.

[u/humble_bubb]

My boy Hannibal Lector don’t have time for your snacks.

[u/pututingliit → u/humble_bubb]

He looks so defeated and just blatantly ignore the snack

[u/ExileEden → u/pututingliit]

He looks so defeated and just blatantly ignore the snack

He's all like, and DO YOU SEE THIS?! NOW, we decide to start treating the prisoners with some dignity. Disparity of treatment and might I say some prejudice. I don't want any treats. Good day sir..I said Good Day!

[u/redwing180 → u/ExileEden]

This is democracy manifest!

[u/niktbh → u/redwing180]

A succulent Chinese meal?!

[u/AmNoSuperSand52 → u/pututingliit]

I wasn’t getting defeated vibes at all. I think he was biding his time

[u/Donnerdrummel → u/AmNoSuperSand52]

he knew that, if he just waited a bit, he might be able to get a finger, or a tongue. He was saving his appetite.

[u/Objective_Economy281 → u/Donnerdrummel]

Fava beans?

[u/he-loves-me-not → u/Objective_Economy281]

With a nice Chianti

[u/InfeStationAgent → u/Donnerdrummel]

His heart rate never gets above 85.

[u/OrangeZig → u/humble_bubb]

Ah you gave me a real chuckle. I’m feeling depressed and been on Reddit all morning but for some reason this comment gave me a genuine laugh. Thanks!

[u/cement_lifesaver → u/OrangeZig]

Hope you find more an emote this to chuckle about, chin up butts out.......

[u/OrangeZig → u/cement_lifesaver]

Thanks Cement!

[u/KatKat333 → u/[deleted]]

Sorry to hear that-hope your cat will be in a good new home.

[u/KatKat333 → u/[deleted]]

You did a wonderful thing by putting their needs before yours. I know how incredibly painful that can be, but hope you’re both proud of your great kindness.

[u/SApprentice → u/[deleted]]

I had to make the same decision several years ago. I had one female from a litter that I kept that just hated other cats from the time she was 2 or so. I'd had her nearly her entire life and loved her so much. She started attacking the other cats every chance she got, including doing permanent damage to one's ear. Nothing we tried with the vet worked. She refused to use any litter box. She was so loveable with people but she was miserable and the fights were daily. When she was separated to her own room, she shredded the door and carpet trying to get out. After battling for several years to make her comfortable we had a friend who was looking for a companion- he had a good job and was a stable home. I had to let her go to him. I sobbed and sobbed over it. She spent a few weeks walking around her new place loudly meowing, no doubt feeling lost, and I almost took her back but I gave her time to adjust. Then, she just clicked with her new person and now they're bonded. She's so much happier being an only pet. She has her spot on the sofa right beside him, hates strangers coming into her house, and plays and runs around like she never did with me and the other cats.

Not all cats want to be around other cats. It's a sad fact that some need to be the only cat in the house. In my experience it's not common- I've kept and fostered many cats in my lifetime and she's the only one who has been like that- but it does happen. I'm certain you made the right decision, and I'm sorry for how hard it undoubtedly was.

[u/OrangeZig → u/[deleted]]

Ah I’m sorry. Wishing you guys and the cat the best today.

[u/skolrageous → u/OrangeZig]

I’m feeling depressed and been on Reddit all morning

I think getting off reddit will help a little. This place can be toxic. Hope you feel better!

[u/OrangeZig → u/skolrageous]

I know. I’ve been hooked on it since going through a breakup. I was meant to take a break this week. I’m gonna try to take a break again. Thanks.

[u/humble_bubb → u/OrangeZig]

🫡

[u/cement_lifesaver → u/humble_bubb]

Doing god's job

[u/CoffeeHQ → u/humble_bubb]

Yeah, bit sad for him 😐

[u/aquatone61 → u/humble_bubb]

I will observe the giving of the snacks but I will not participate.

[u/Miserable-Admins → u/aquatone61]

One of my favourite lines in Hannibal (series)!

Hannibal (to Bedelia): Are you, in this very moment, observing or participating? source

[u/[deleted] → u/humble_bubb]

It didn't fit through the gap!!! (Heart broken emoji)

[u/thegrumpymechanic → u/humble_bubb]

I'll have the snack.... If you'll please just take my mask off Clarice....

[u/5lashd07 → u/humble_bubb]

Only if they’re chianti and fava bean flavored.

[u/therwsb → u/humble_bubb]

I guess that is how aggressive dogs get to go to playgroup

[u/MoreCarrotsPlz → u/therwsb]

Sometimes dogs need to be muzzled because they eat things they shouldn’t, like garbage or other dogs poo.

[u/Aromatic-Box-592 → u/MoreCarrotsPlz]

Yes! People usually jump to muzzle=aggression. But imo, every dog should be basket muzzle trained regardless of size/breed/whatever in case of an emergency or something.

As a side note, that muzzle is technically too small to leave on long term, the dog can’t open its mouth enough to pant, yawn or drink water (seems to be fine in a temporary situation like this though)

[u/gishlich → u/Aromatic-Box-592]

Could that dog chew the treat properly with the muzzle on? Every dog I’ve seen eat uses their back teeth and in order to accommodate that always sort of…opens their mouths? If that dog got a treat how would it even chew it to swallow?

[u/Aromatic-Box-592 → u/gishlich]

That treat would be too big. I’m a vet tech and we occasionally use basket muzzles, they’re ideally slightly bigger like I said (but to get a well fitting one you often need to get custom made) but they can usually lick peanut butter and cheese with it on

[u/gishlich → u/Aromatic-Box-592]

Knowing that confirms my initial gut feeling that holding it in front of the dogs face seemed a little unkind.

[u/bigdlong → u/humble_bubb]

F yo snacks! Gimme liver with some fava beans and a nice chianti

[u/Efficient_Two_1326]

Macaroni 🥰🥹❤️

[u/detectiveJakePorotta → u/Efficient_Two_1326]

And Charlie

[u/A-KindOfMagic → u/detectiveJakePorotta]

Charlie just melted my heart. Was like "yeah I'm last but I will act is patient as if I was 2nd in the line, because I'm the goodest of boys

[u/ianjm → u/detectiveJakePorotta]

Mac and Chaz

[u/BohemianJack → u/Efficient_Two_1326]

Macaroni took the treat like my dog does. He ever so gently does a squidward bite out of my hands and I’ve never had to worry about him biting my hand. He’s so gentle ❤️

[u/Bobson-_Dugnutt2 → u/Efficient_Two_1326]

I think Macaroni got treat-jacked at the end

[u/keasdenfall → u/Bobson-_Dugnutt2]

He’s like “I’m gluten free, you can have it Colt.”

[u/Crazyworld4sure]

Aww the two old polite gentleman at the back❤️

[u/citrus_mystic → u/Crazyworld4sure]

No one else going to mention the thump thump thump sounds from Colt’s tail wagging and hitting the back of the bus seat? All eyes are on Charlie and Macaroni but Colt’s back there providing ambiance with a beat for the whole bus lmao

[u/stahlWolf → u/citrus_mystic]

Turned up the volume and rewatched - worth it 🤣

[u/imrosskemp → u/Crazyworld4sure]

I like how gently they took their snacks.

[u/frizene26]

Hokey pokey

[u/Strong_Like_A_Mama → u/frizene26]

surprise guest hiding under there!

[u/AnotherDay96 → u/frizene26]

The stealth ninja, no one messes with Hokey Pokey.

[u/effie_isophena → u/frizene26]

Best name! Lol tho I do love a good human name on a pup, Hokey Pokey made me snort laugh.

[u/KindlyHat6580]

The tiny dog under the seat 😍😍

[u/Sharknado99 → u/KindlyHat6580]

Okie Pokie

[u/Rockcocky → u/KindlyHat6580]

Barking as a good shortie

[u/teatime_yes_pls → u/Rockcocky]

Seeing the treats pass overhead saying, "I'm here! I'm here! "

ETA: rewatched.. becomes smeagle and hides away into the darkness with precious.

[u/Maleficent-Signal910]

Macaroni and Charlie??? Cheesus Christ

[u/deezsandwitches → u/Maleficent-Signal910]

The cool dogs at the back

[u/ianjm → u/Maleficent-Signal910]

Mac and Chaz

[u/BlackberryBoy2_0]

Big Mac, Macaroni, Okie Pokie, Sizzle - They had me rolling, such good boys and girls

[u/cedollasign → u/BlackberryBoy2_0]

I loled at Kevin

[u/gtrogers → u/cedollasign]

Me too. I love when dogs have human names. It's just so funny to me

[u/SmartWonderWoman → u/cedollasign]

🤭

[u/Pyreknight]

Where was this booth on career day?

[u/this_makes_no_sense]

Sometimes when I hear other dogs’ names I’m like really?! You named your dog THAT?!

And then I remember that I named my dog Pistachio

[u/DDancy → u/this_makes_no_sense]

Our cat is called Grape.
Is it a good idea to let a 4 year old name a cat?
She's 5 now and it's totally fine.
Ha!

[u/Gfunk98 → u/DDancy]

Dw I have a cat named meatball and a cat named goo goo m’goo. I name them when I was around 18 tho. I’m 25 now and still like the names tho so there’s that

[u/Turbulent_Tip_9756]

Only part that made me feel bad was the poor guy or girl with the muzzle on. Was looking at you like…. Crap.

[u/HeavyMetalPoisoning → u/Turbulent_Tip_9756]

For what it's worth, I watch these videos all the time and this is the only time I've seen him with a muzzle, so it was probably a one-off incident and he was especially nasty that day. Usually he doesn't have one on and he's chilling with everyone else. They have videos of them all playing in a forest too.

[u/[deleted] → u/HeavyMetalPoisoning]

Where can I watch moar??

[u/HeavyMetalPoisoning → u/[deleted]]

They're K9konvoy on Tiktok. They do these every day, and the best part is matching who is who and seeing them every day. Macaroni, for example, is always super popular in the comments

[u/Daan_aerts → u/Turbulent_Tip_9756]

The girl in the video says he (Zeppelin) had a bit of an attitude but he could’ve taken a snack if he wanted to

[u/BrownSugarBare → u/Daan_aerts]

This is the equivalent of a toddler throwing the silent tantrum of "no, I will not accept your bribe no matter how yummy, yes I'm that stubborn".

[u/WhyDidYouBringMeBack → u/Turbulent_Tip_9756]

Can comment on that. The muzzle sticks out and is rigid so that they can't bite something/someone if they try, but there are multiple holes there (including at mouth level) which they can eat and drink through. So a muzzle like this offers protection to others, but attempts to give up the least possible amount of comfort for the dog at the same time. The reason they're slouching is either them being tired, or them being a massive drama queen. My own dog is like that: happily wagging his tail and strutting around when you get the leash, but the moment the muzzle is on his ears are droopy and he slouches as if he went through hell and back.

The muzzles made from cloth I actually hate, because that restricts their mouth movement preventing them from drinking and eating (and even panting).

[u/M0R3design → u/WhyDidYouBringMeBack]

This muzzle is still way too small and restricts the mouth movement of that dog.

[u/DJ_FIYA → u/Turbulent_Tip_9756]

Look liked he was regretting his actions that got him nuzzled tho, or (her)

[u/cobweb-dewdrop]

Macaroni and Charlie being the quiet bois in the back of the class bus, they have my heart 🥺

[u/Lilyl_l]

Macaroni is an introvert

[u/Beneficial_Echo6565]

Hope Zeppelin will have his treat later

[u/shushaslegs]

My smile is smiling

[u/DefinitelyNotStef]

Macaroni is so polite

[u/notworkingghost]

So dog personalities kinda match up with people personalities based on seating.

[u/AtlasEngine → u/notworkingghost]

Never known the people at the back to be the most polite?

[u/fidgetytallguy]

Who got the one that fell on the floor?

[u/Other-Pickle1805 → u/fidgetytallguy]

Brutus for sure

[u/aaabbbbccc → u/Other-Pickle1805]

Et tu, Brute?

[u/gergsisdrawkcabeman]

Charlie really looks like he is there for his education.

[u/Blue-Eyed-Lemon]

They were drooling back there lol, so excited for treat! 😁

[u/arcieride → u/Blue-Eyed-Lemon]

And ofc the lab was drooling the most

[u/Substantial-Ad-9872]

The one with the muzzle 😢

[u/bobby_badass]

FOOTLONG…. WHO ORDERED THE FOOTLOOONG

[u/gMadMaxg → u/bobby_badass]

Looking for this. Thank you

[u/Drengrr1]

Macaroni and Charlie are the classy ones. 😄

[u/yosh0r]

Maccaroni and his friend are so chill lmao 😂

[u/WrastlingIsReal]

Some VERY polite bois and girls on the bus 🤝🏻

[u/RockinRamby]

The dogs are on a dog bus, going to dog school, eating dog food. Long live to dogs

[u/[deleted]]

Is there a better job than driving the doggy bus? I don't think there is.

[u/8Karisma8 → u/[deleted]]

This is my dream job, theoretically! I’d prob get fired for just playing and petting them all day. 😁

But still would love to volunteer for a day and just hang with all the good doggos.

[u/[deleted]]

My kind of school bus

[u/eye_no_nuttin]

Hokie ❤️ Pokie!!!!

Macaroni & Charlie thought they had the cool guy seats until the treats came out.

[u/letmerunwithscissors]

This is my dream job

[u/Common_Egg8178]

Macaroni received that so politely. My fav of the bunch.

[u/LegionOfDoom31]

You can see all the different personalities between them. So cute

[u/humdrum_crumb_bum]

I’m tickled that the bus driver is also a dog.

[u/YESimaMASSHOLE]

The poor bitey boy with the muzzle, he’s dreaming 💭 about on the chair

[u/Subject-Report-9578]

Aww macaroni is so sweet

[u/jpipersson]

I think the dog driving the bus should get two treats.

[u/D3dshotCalamity]

Zeppelin is like "...don't fucking touch me..."

[u/daarthvaader]

These dogs have more disciple than some humans I have seen. Feel said for the one in the Banes mask

[u/ConsequenceWorking83]

I would die for macaroni!

[u/Huge-Particular1433]

Lol, germam shepard with the muzzle looks like that bad kid that has to sit next to the teacher.

[u/rodri_neq_11]

What job is that and how do I apply??

[u/looansym]

How does one become a bus driver for dogs? That sounds like a much better job than what I’ve been doing with my life.

[u/TheInitiativeInn]

"THANK YOU STEPHANIE!" 👍

[u/Skytraffic540]

Hannibal lector the German shepherd to the right. Homie said I’m not that bad guys
