German photographer Christian Vieler is back again with more hilarious photos of dogs trying to catch treats (see previous post here). The photographer captures the precise moment right before a dog gets – or misses- a treat thrown in the air, and the facial expressions of doggos, ranging from exuberance to confusion, are nothing short of epic.
Though a dog has around 100 different facial expressions, they are often quite subtle, and not so easily distinguishable for us, humans. But with the help of freeze-frame Vieler has managed to capture the many grins of these funny dogs.
“Every shoot I am looking for that specific moment when you can snap the funniest or the cutest dog grins," - Vieler told Bored Panda. "That cannot be seen without the power of freezing motion – dog’s faces with magnificent lineaments, telling us stories of panic, desire, and joy.”
Vieler, who is also a journalist, has been taking pictures of dogs since 2012, the year he purchased a new camera. “I shoot a snapshot with every dog-guest in my studio. Some pics of dogs are pretty good, some not and a few are really gorgeous.”

This dog is VERY fixated on the object. I bet he doesn't ever miss much!
That smile you get on your face when you see the waiter is bringing out your food...FINALLY!
That face you make when you see your best friend is in the same class as you
Awww, reminds me of a pic I took of my son when he was wee boy. He was kicking his football and it landed on top of a bush taller than him. He ran around looking for it :-)
Christian Vieler, what a wonderful collection of photos! I've enjoyed every one of them. From the wild eyes, flapping jowls and slobber and spit flying, you've caught these beautiful dogs at their funniest. Thanks for sharing with us. And (I say sarcastically) yeah - thanks for making me feel guilty about not having a shiny-coated dog, with nice white teeth who can't catch a treat if you hold it an inch from his mouth! LOL!
Would be WONDERFUL to do this for 'Adoption Dogs'. They'd get a lot of GREAT exposure this way!
