Police dogs, trained military pups, and all the other dogs in the world with actual jobs have to remain both serious and attentive while they're on the clock.
Still, that doesn't mean that they don't get a chance to be loving, sweet, and silly with their handlers when the moment is right. Heck, the handlers of these dogs often have a hard time keeping a straight face when they're working alongside their canine colleagues.
These 11 hilariously adorable photos will make you seriously appreciate the work that the incredible dogs out there do on a regular basis. They spend so much time risking their lives on the job working alongside police or the military, still, it's important to remember that these dogs need to have fun and get hugs and kisses just like any other dog.
