I Imagined What Everyday Life Looks Like Through A Dog’s Eyes, And Turned It Into 22 New Comics
Living with a dog is a beautiful experience. You get unconditional love, endless companionship, and the comforting feeling of knowing that someone is silently judging almost everything you do.
After sharing the first part of this series, I realized my dog still had plenty to say, or at least plenty of suspicious looks for me to translate. So, naturally, I gave him another 22 opportunities to question human intelligence.
In these new comics, with the help of AI, I imagined what might be going through a dog's mind during those perfectly ordinary moments we barely notice: when we make the bed just so they can mess it up again, use our phones when we should probably be paying attention to the road, leave them outside places they're not allowed to enter, or somehow manage to step exactly where we shouldn't in the backyard.
And to all the dog owners reading this: if you've ever looked at your dog and thought, “I know you're judging me,” don't worry. You probably are being judged.

The more I create these comics, the more I suspect dogs probably think we're the pets in this relationship. We buy their food, open doors for them, take them for walks, clean up after them, and still apologize when we accidentally disturb their nap. When you think about it, they have arranged things rather well.
So here are 22 more glimpses into the wonderfully sarcastic mind of a dog. Some are inspired by those looks every dog owner knows far too well, and others by the ridiculous little situations that come with sharing your home – and apparently your entire life – with one.
Ah yes. The neighborhood vet's office which is five feet from my house, of course. And the dog straining ... towards the car with the human pulling it away from the car, when the caption is talking about the dog trying to avoid a car ride to the vet's (which is within 10 seconds walking distance)? What lovely AI "art" this comic is. /s

Hi Pandas. I’m Hidreley, the person behind these comics. Yes, AI is used to create the images, but the ideas, jokes and situations are mine. AI is simply the visual tool I use to bring them to life. The first part was very well received here on Bored Panda, which inspired me to continue the series. I understand that some people dislike AI, and that’s their right. But new creative tools have always faced resistance, and AI is part of how creativity is evolving today. Calling the work “soulless” ignores the human behind it. You don’t have to like my comics, but there is a real person thinking, choosing and creating behind every one of them. The tool may be artificial. The creativity behind it isn’t. 🙂🐶
