Mentally I Am Here Checked Out Dog Meme

The meme consists of text at the top reading 'Mentally... I am here' positioned above a photograph of a shaggy, light brown dog (likely a Brussel Griffon mix) sitting upright on a striped floor mat indoors. The dog stares directly at the camera with a wide-eyed, blank, dazed, and completely checked-out expression.
