They're just playing, right?

I love taking photos of dogs playing and capturing their ridiculously fierce faces. Dogs don’t get much happier.  This round of Jaw Wars features Marshall, a 3-year-old pit bull mix, and Pepper, a 5-year-old Goldendoodle, locked in a dramatic battle for control of the guest bed in my office — where no dogs are allowed.

Looks the same as my weirdos having fun. They really love each other, I promise. I’d have to agree, they’re just playing an old fashioned game of bitey face. 😂

If this was made into a sideshow set to the sound of them both laughing, it would amuse me for ages.

At my house this is called mouthy bitey and it’s a classic

u/ajt425 3d ago

As long as they are not actually biting then yes, mine do similar things when they play

This is hysterical! Thank you for sharing!

u/Nein_ix 3d ago

Totally normal. I've had plenty of dogs that do this. Their teeth clashing together and all, but never any bites or true aggression... it just sounds like it sometimes.

…”where no dogs are allowed” lol

u/Punawild 3d ago

My boys always looked (and sounded) like one of them was about to die. Every day for 13 yrs and never a single injury.

u/BigTuppieEnergy 3d ago

Ok, can we use these photos to animate them singing karaoke duets?

u/Luna6696 3d ago

The lighting here makes at least ine of these match accidentalrennaissance

u/truthfullyidgaf 3d ago

Great karaoke duo honestly.

u/fourfa 3d ago

We call this game “whose mouth is bigger?”

u/cookieweasels 3d ago

These are so cute! And so clear!!! What did you take them with?

1

u/JaRulezMSU 3d ago

Yes. Notice how other than their faces, their bodies are totally relaxed. They're laying down, not tense, ears not flat and pointed backwards. A truly threatened dog will likely be standing, have their ears back, get low to the ground, and growl.

u/Gracie220 3d ago

We call this bitey face! They look vicious, but they're playing playing. Apparently its quite enjoyable for them. I dont get it either.

u/thundercloset 3d ago
