Menacing Looking Neighbor Dog Meme

The meme consists of a text caption placed above a real photograph. The top text reads 'My neighbor just got a new dog and I’ve never been more afraid in my life...'. The photo shows a small, fluffy grey and white dog with dark fur markings around its eyes that give it an unintentionally angry, intimidating, and grumpy expression. The dog is peeking over the top edge of a wooden backyard fence, with its front paws resting on the fence, staring directly at the viewer. The humor derives from the juxtaposition of the text's exaggerated claim of fear and the surprisingly menacing appearance of what would otherwise be considered a cute small dog.
