Reid Thompson and his girlfriend were out on a hike with their dog, Finn, in Kenora, Ontario, when they made the dubious decision to let the pup off leash. Instead of heeling, their “bad boy” took off once he caught an interesting scent, Thompson told Fox News.

Ignoring the pleas of his owners, Finn split the scene. A half-hour later, Thompson got the call no “parent” wants to get. It was from the Ontario Provincial Police. Finn, it seemed, had gotten himself into trouble.

“I was informed that Finn had been causing some chaos as he chased a deer along the road, through the hospital grounds and back onto the road. They tangled for a bit, up and over a guard rail and down onto the ice … eventually the deer got away and Finn gave up the chase,” Thompson said.

Police told Thompson Finn had been “detained” and when he showed to collect the dog, they gave him a lecture on leashing your pet. Meanwhile, Thompson’s daughter, Emme, clicked a pic of their pup looking guilty behind bars in the back of the cruiser and tweeted it to the world.

The tweet has since gone viral, receiving over 630,00 likes and 185,000 retweets as of this writing.

The response threads have been hilarious!

“Not a bark or a ruff. Fifth Amendment all the way and lawyer up,” @GaryBoncella wrote.

“I’m sure you could get a lawyer to handle this pro-bone-o,” said @kimberly_salz.

“After a tip-off from an anonymous collar, they caught the pup-itrator, gave him a pat down, made sure he didn’t flea and sent him to the dog house,” wrote a ridiculously “punny” @JoshuaBowman.

Thompson added that despite the “arrest,” Finn seemed “pretty proud of himself,” but wasn’t thrilled about the post-incident scrub down.

“He didn’t like the bath he got afterwards … the baby powder spritz spray didn’t match his new bad-boy image he is trying to cultivate,” Thompson said.

Lindsey Vonn had a challenging trip this week to the Winter Olympics in South Korea.

Celebrity athletes have harrowing travel stories, too. And a 24-hour travel saga can be quite exhausting. But at least the Olympic skier found lots to laugh about after traveling to South Korea with her dog, Lucy, in tow.

Vonn’s plane had been delayed, stretching the planned 14-hour trip to a long, drawn-out 24 hours, and she kept her followers in the loop, tweeting as she went.

Lucy, of course, kept her company. And when one follow inquired about how the dog fared during air travel, the proud dog mom bragged on Lucy’s chill nature while jet-setting and globe trotting.

“Oh, she’s been asleep this whole time,” Vonn tweeted. “Never barks or whines. She’s happy when she’s traveling, it’s pretty awesome.”

The fun began to happen later, however, when a photo of Vonn and Lucy began to circulate. In it, Lucy looks anything but chill. Vonn responded in kind.

After that, however, Team USA stepped in and made Lucy even more famous than she already is, hilariously so.

According to his daughter, Meghan, Larry Specksgoor of Midlothian, VA, “desperately wants grandchildren.”

But really, he’s not hurting for good company with Meghan’s shepherd mix, Chance.

When Meghan went to New York over the holidays, Larry graciously agreed to care for Chance and while doing so, his hilarious Twitter messages to his daughter went viral!

In one text, he wrote, “Grandpa wants to know what kind of take out I can have? We are starving.”

Another included a photo showing the 4-year-old pup enjoying time at the park.

“Hate to keep bothering you mom, but we really need to hang out with gramps more,” he also wrote.

Meghan told ABC News her father and her dog also “went to Petco to get his nails done because he needed his nails trimmed” and enjoyed sugar-free frozen yogurt together.

Great time with your “grand-dog,” Larry!
