[Buzzfeed](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/buzzfeeds-branch-office) has created a series of playful dog emojis that reflect the life of any pooch. This set of 16 emojis will appeal to both dog lovers and those without a pet thanks to its adorable graphics and fun concept.

The set of emojis incorporates [treat boxes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/influencer-dog-treat-collection), a mailman, an ever curious squirrel and even a doghouse. Since dog language has been incorporated into everyday speak, these emojis can relate to many different situations. For example, simply sending a spouse or partner the image of the doghouse easily lets them know they have done something wrong. On the other hand, sending a friend the leash emoji is a simple way to ask them if they want to go for a walk.

These quirky dog emojis are perfect for pet owners, but they can play a role in the lives of non-pet owners as well.
