Cats have trouble respecting our personal space, but dogs are not much better – when they want your attention, they will TAKE it, even if it means barging into the bathroom or sitting on your face.

If you have any funny pictures of dogs not quite getting the concept of personal space, please add them to this list and upvote your favorites, too!
