The Original Stoner Dog meme features a squinting, seemingly smiling Italian Greyhound that first captured the internet's heart in early 2011. Originally appearing on Reddit’s r/trees community, the image became an instant classic for depicting the stereotypical state of being under the influence. Unlike many other Advice Animal style memes, Stoner Dog relies heavily on the relatable and hilarious facial expression of the canine, often used to convey confusion, relaxation, or deep, albeit nonsensical, philosophical thoughts. It remains a staple of early 2010s internet culture and a favorite for enthusiasts everywhere.
