20 Hilarious Pet Photo Fails That Will Keep You Laughing

Sometimes your mobile device's landscape mode is incapable of capturing the scenic splendor in front of you.

It's in those times of adversity that you reach for your phone and toggle right until you land on the setting for panoramic photos.

But as one Twitter user recently discovered, this option is not without its own pano pitfalls.

To wit:

"I regret trying to take a cute panorama of my dog," posted @bulletsmikey late last week, the caption accompanied by two images of the man's pup, Reggie, flexed like a walking accordion with fur.

As is so often the case on the microblogging platform, the hilarious photo fail quickly spread beyond the OP's 1900+ followers.

"Why does reggie look like gru’s pet [from Despicable Me]," quipped one man.

Classic memes from the past were invoked: "brothers in arms."

Like any good thread, this one also prompted others to share their own photo flops (relatability FTW!).

"Ha, I got a dog with 2 heads when I did it"

"Don't worry your dog could have been like mine."
