They're sure to get their head caught into any tiny space they can and give some pretty funny faces to you and the people in other cars.
Keep reading for some fun photos that show just how hilarious dogs can act in the car.
Oh, What A Day
It is just us, or is this dog definitely an elegant human stuck in the body of a canine? We don't even have posture that good, and we live on two legs, not four. Adding to the dog's oddly formal posture is its expression.
There's something about that distant stare out the window that makes it seem like this pooch was just left for a poodle, and is now contemplating how to live life without its soulmate.
Yo Dawg, Wassup?
This dog is definitely cooler than any person we've ever met in our lives. First of all, is it really using its paw to wave out the window at someone it knows? Then you add in the sunglasses and it's just too cool for school.
To be fair, any Rottweiler automatically looks like it's in the top tier of the dog hierarchy. Then you throw on a chain collar, and you may as well give this dog a record deal.
PIZZAAAAAAA!
If there's one pet that knows how to get excited, it's dogs. They sometimes wag their tail so hard that their whole body gyrates! And we've never seen a smile bigger than a dog's when it's panting.
But this pooch takes excited to a whole new level. Its mouth is so big it may as well be yawning, and its eyes look like they're about ready to pop out. As soon as you see that stack of pizza boxes in the passenger's seat, it all makes sense.
The Stink Eye
This dog looks like it's giving the stink eye to someone who just cut him off! Not only is the canine clearly glaring out the window, but it's also got its paws crossed and is leaning to the side with some serious attitude.
Any dog with that much personality belongs in Hollywood. We can just imagine if a professional actor gave a voice to this sassy canine. It'd be like Homeward Bound, only the driving edition!
The Perfect Size
Like the puppy that was snoozing on the armrest, this little fluffball looks positively adorable snuggled up on the dashboard. It must be warm up there since the sunlight is just above and the engine is down below, as are the vents that may be pumping out warm air.
The best part is looking up and realizing the driver was dealing with some major traffic when this picture was taken. Talk about a therapy dog!
I'm Such A Big Dog With My Seatbelt On
I'm a big pup now! You can almost hear this cutie thinking those words as he rides shotgun with his human owner, sitting in the front seat with his seatbelt strapped on his teeny little body. He looks pretty serious about his safety restraints.
We don't have a clue whether this seating arrangement is any safer but you can't deny that it's pretty darn adorable. Especially with the way those rear legs are sticking straight up and the tail's pointing forward.
Peek-A-Boo!
Have you ever wondered what was the point of being able to fold down a portion of your back seat when you could just do the whole thing? It turns out, the purpose is to let your dog peek his head through when he's in the trunk!
In all seriousness, who wouldn't want to see this adorable view each and every time they check their rearview mirror or turn around while backing up? Distracting as it may be, that sweet face is totally worth it.
I. Wasn't. Ready. To. Go.
This dog looks like it knows how to hold a grudge. It's looking out the window with furrowed brows as though it just crossed the point in its life where it's joined the dark side.
Is a horror movie about to start, or is this dog just upset that it has to leave the park early? We honestly can't tell for sure, but this doesn't seem like the kind of dog that turns your frown upside-down.
Who Turned Off The Lights?
A dog getting its head stuck in a box of crackers has got to be a cliche by now, but we've yet to see it happen in the back seat of a car! We have so many questions. Where did the crackers come from?
Was the box already open before the dog found it or does he have some serious motor skills? Was it in the back seat or up front with the owner? And is the dog trying to shake off the box or is it still determined to get a cracker?
This Is My Chin Sling
We can't tell what exactly this dog is resting its chin on, but it seems to be a strap hanging from the ceiling of the car on the passenger's side. This dog is certainly happy it's there.
As we mentioned before, there's something about having chin support that really makes a dog feel complete in their cozy position. Perhaps the reason dogs are able to doze off so easily is because they commit to finding the most comfortable position they possibly can.
I'm Just So Happy!
You'll notice that almost every single dog on this list looks utterly happy with life. This pup probably tops the list. Just imagine driving down the highway and feeling a soft weight on your arm.
You look down and see this adorable face, eyes closed, and tongue dangling out in pure joy. The best part is that all it probably took was a good walk or a trip to the dog park to get this reaction.
Say Cheese!
We sincerely hope that the person standing outside the passenger's side window said "say cheese" just before the dog gave this face. Either the canine is posing because it's just that awesome, or it has fallen asleep and doesn't realize the cute face it's giving.
Either way, we could stare at this picture all day. It'd be a great one to hang up in the office so on those days when you just feel down you could look at this and remember what you're really working for.
Santa?
This dog must have some little kids living at home because the only time we've seen that look of excitement is when toddlers see their presents on Christmas morning.
The brows are even raised and the dog isn't panting, it's just smiling! We again have to wonder if there's a human in there who decided life as a dog would be the better choice. We wish we were that excited just to go for a car ride.
I Turn Into An Ewok In The Car
This dog's human nailed it when they said that the pup looks like it turns into an Ewok when it hangs its head out the car window to get a nice fresh breath of air and its fur blows back in the wind.
For some reason, any dog-in-car photo is made even better with the "Objects in mirror are closer than they appear" notice, too. Like, just how much closer can this little Ewok be?
This Is How I Want To Lay
This dog's owner snapped a photo of how their dog prefers to sleep in their bed in the back of the car. Here, the owner provided everything that the dog could need to get comfortable-- they even have their security blanket!
But when they glanced in the backseat to see how their dog was doing with the car ride, this is what they witnessed. Puppies are more elastic than the rest of us but we still think he'll have a sore neck after this car ride!
Hello, I Am Here
JP on Twitter shared this photo of her dog trying to socialize from the backseat. After another dog owner posted a photo of his pitbull trying to come through the netting, JP shared that they weren't alone.
Dogs just want to be apart of the conversation all of the time! There isn't a net strong enough to stop these dogs from showing their love to their best friends in the front seat.
Going On A Cruise With My Human
This sweet Bernese mountain dog loves going on drives with his human. While other dogs are often in the backseat, this big boy rides shotgun with his best friend.
Clearly, it's not the first time that he's taken up the front seat. He has the relaxed, one paw out the window swagger just right. Others on the road can't help but take notice of this cool as a cucumber dog.
Pure Elegance
This dog's owner looked into the backseat to find them in full wind mode. This pooch as a lot of hair! That won't stop them from enjoying the simple pleasure of having the wind against your face.
If this dog could buy a car of their own, it's easy to tell they would buy a convertible. Some of us just love that sun on your face, wind in your fur feeling.
Hello, I'm Here For You
This Pitbull pup looks comfy in their sling in the backseat. They might be comfortable and enjoying the ride, but that doesn't mean that they don't miss their owner's affection!
This sweet pup lovingly keeps her eyes on her owner at all time, even when they're in the backseat. She's just letting her owner know she's here for emotional support. This is the kind of backseat driver we all need.
This is Fantastic!
This hilarious dog doesn't mind riding in the bed of the truck at all-- in fact, they prefer it! Wherever you're going human, take me with you! This dog almost looks like a superhero with their chops in the wind. That, or possibly a llama.
It's funny to see how dogs' faces take on a different shape when they have the wind hitting them. And they love it so much!
Purse Drool
A Reddit user shared this photo of their mom's dog while going for a car ride. According to the user, this is a pretty common situation with this family.
We hope that the mom doesn't mind a puddle of drool in her leather bag, because that's what's about to happen! This family dog just wants to apart of the conversation wherever they go. We get it, we don't like being the only one in the backseat either!
I'm Sailing!
The owner of this comedic pooch captured video of them riding in the car with their head hanging out of the sunroof. It looks like there's nothing this dog would rather be doing!
They're going for the full effect here, using their mouth like a sail. It must feel like they're running really, really fast. We just hope that their owner has some water handy to rehydrate! They're going to have cotton mouth after this car ride.
