Is that a “regulation size” canine Jesus?
Marney
OMG, too funny.
Not awkward. Either a joke, or evidence of insanity.
Not awkward? Tell that to canine “baby Jesus”!
the humans might be insane, but the dog clearly knows this is awkward.
Is this the Nightmare Before Christmas, or what???
Of course the dog looks terrified. He knows how this particular story ends.
right on the nail …… hehehe
Nail… Hee, hee. You nailed it.. Okay, lame.
The dog is the understudy.
The 100 watt bulb was out being wormed.
So … say, Joseph.
If this is NOT the baby … whom did you bring to have neutered at the vet’s?
The dog is the only one that seems to know this is ohhh sooo wrong!
And the bed sheets (still with fold lines) on their heads…this is probably the CREEPIEST picture I have seen in a while….Imagine opening this framed portrait on Christmas day…”eeeeerrrrr…uhhhhh…thanks?, I kew he was creepy when you married him.”
That is priceless. One of the funniest things I’ve seen in a while. Apparently whoever read “Son of God” had dyslexia.
clever…
This comment is pure genius.
awesome!
That comment made my day!
WIN!
Really cool. This should have been the subtitle for the picture.
Brilliant!
It’s not a DOG, it’s a SUSEJ…
i hope jesus thinks this is funny when these particular people get to the pearly gates…
^^^^^ someone call the whaaaaaaaambulence. Someone is making fun of fake god.
WHAT child is this???!!!???
If I had been drinking coffee I could have spit it on my screen as I laughed at your comment!
I’m crying reading these comments! Hahaha
Indeed!!
hahahha awesome!!!
This is just wrong on SO many levels…
The dog is thinking, “Is it just me or is this sacrilegious?!”
The look on the dogs face is priceless!!!!! Luv it!!!
This is the first picture that made me think that they did it just to get on this site.
Just then, the Jingle Cats meowing “Silent Night” came over the loudspeaker, according to the survivors…..
Meowy Christmas, Jeff.
Apparently the Kennel had No Vacancies….
Wow, what were the wise men thinking when they first saw him? Um… Jesus? What the???
gold, frankincense and Purina Puppy Chow…
or maybe gold, frankincense and grrrrr….
not frank in scents, that’s for sure.
Jesus wept. Because he was laughing so hard!!!
Ah, the shortest verse in the bible! by the looks of things, it could be updated to ‘grrrr.’
Amen. God does have a sense of humor.
I can’t control the laughter!
Sad
Happy!
Awesome!
The dog looks like he’s thinking “please save me from these people”
looks like the dog is the only one who knows how wrong this is…
They could have at least ironed their bed sheets before they put them on their heads.
Hers are queen sized of course.The son of “GOD” is wearing a towel…in case he pees.
That made me laugh and give away my work internet surfing, until then it was just muffled sniggering.
omgosh that is so funny!
I betcha this was for their christmas card, which either shows a great sense of humor or a loose grip on normality.
Where else do people get great sense of humor??
Happy!!
Um…God? It’s Sparky. I know this probably isn’t cool with you, and I want you to know I had NOTHING to do with it. I know all us dogs are supposed to go to heaven anyway, but…just letting you know. I’m REALLY SORRY.
Precious!!! You put the words right in the dog’s mouth.
You’ve got to be kidding me…right?! I’m in shock.
No one has mentioned yet the fact that apparently God+Woman=Dog.
This is an equation I never learned in Sunday School.
Yeah, really! I’m sure I’ll fry in hell for this, but God must be butt-ugly!
love how the guy’s head-rope was dyed to match his head-sheet.
So much for the virgin birth experiment.
Frankly, I find many of the comments left on this one quite priceless…many of you good people (not all, but many) should be writing comedy–keep up the good work! But keep your day job–the economy is tough!
I completely agree— oftentimes, the comments are much more entertaining than the photos themselves. Y’all’re some funny, clever people. Please don’t stop!
True, it is referred to as ‘dogma’.
“Dogma” that’s perfect. And Boston’s rule!
Just as long as your karma doesn’t run over my dogma.
I suppose this works since God spelled backwards is dog.
The look on that dogs face is priceless.
Instead of singing Feliz Navidad, they changed the words to “Fleas on my Dog”
The dog is blinking in Morris Code to the photographer…”call the police”
Only cats can understand Morris code….
Thank you exploder for that incredibly subtle jab/reference.
Thank you Exploder for being the ONLY person to get that.
I’m guessing they never had children of their own…
I am just trying to imagine what was running through the photographer’s head.
And yeah, the humans in the photo are WAAAAY too serious-looking for this to be a joke!
I don’t care how cute the dog is, it’s never OK to use a dog as a Jesus stand in….
I couldn’t agree more.
The problem is our christian background..the pic represents only two persons with some blankets on their heads and with a dog.
I was laughing when I saw this, but not because I got reminded on Baby Jesus. Maria and Joseph, but because of the look of the dog
But then after some seconds the blankets on their heads had me realise the pic.
Anyway Metalsucks is right.
Lighten up. I was wondering how long it would take for someone to be offended at this hillarious photo. If Jesus has a sense of humor, he’s laughing too.
Mary, you have some explaining to do…… – I’m sorry, these people are coo coo for Cocoa Puffs…
Holy Jesus, Mary and Joseph…no..Spot…no Hoover…oh what the..
I’m betting that the newest “velvet painting” out on the market will be a “Sad Puppy Dog Eyed Jesus Playing Poker With His 12 Diciples”.
It’s the plight of the dyslexic theologian, who studied the existence of Dog.
talk about immaculate conception…yikes.
OH SWEET LORD!!! LOL
Ahh….so THERE’S the dog in the manger!
Hahahaha!!!!!
at least iron your sheet if you have actually taken the time to make the photo appt and bring the props for this inane portrait!
I think He was the lamb of God…
I idolized my Boston Terrier too…
I really enjoy the beige sweatshirt on Joseph.
This must be the Son of DOG that all the dyslexic believers read about
What child IS this?
I’m a deist, and even I say blasphemy.
I actually did the very same photo — only my “Jesus” was my Pug, and Joseph was my German Shepherd mix. He was wearing a genuine headwrap from Nazareth, that I bought from a trip there.
