15 National Dog Day Instagram Caption Ideas That Are Doggone Hilarious
If you're a human currently living on this planet who does have a doggie, you know there're no other love in the world quite like it — who else can bring us such joy when we need it most after a long day? Our furry friends are sometimes better than our human ones, as dogs can teach us unconditional love, patience, and joy in the simple aspects of life. So it only makes sense that there'd be a whole day dedicated to celebrating dogs — August 26, that very day, is coming up fast, so you'd better start preparing your funny National Dog Day Instagram captions now. (Or if you are without a dog yourself, your news feeds are ready to receive the outpouring of other people's animals.)
Because the truth is, what is National Dog Day if not an excuse to flood everyone's feeds with pics of your pupper? There are no "Instagram rules" on a holiday like this one — whether you decide to post one pic or 50, an entire slideshow or a half hour's worth of Instagram Stories, August 26 is a day that dog content reigns supreme. Just make sure you think of some interesting words that will make everyone appreciate your pooch and showcase some wit. Read on for some examples:
