    Good for cats :-)

    • cicili says:

      Maybe they’re dyslexic, and really meant no gods.

    • Kerfuffle Monger says:

      If I were in a district in which my kid were to attend a school for which the mascot was the “dawgs”, s/he would be transferred immediately. Is this a ghetto school? This is appalling. “No dogs” sign aside, this is not funny.

      • yousuck says:

        wtf are you talking about? Dawgs is a common way in which many “dog” mascot schools say/write “dogs”. And how exactly does that make this a ghetto school?

        At least you saw the “no dogs” sign, so you’re not a complete idiot.

        • fluffy the fish says:

          As much as I hate to agree with someone called “yousuck”, she’s actually right. “Dawg” is becoming more and more common, and in all kinds of schools.

        • coyote says:

          While his delivery style needs work, I do agree with yousuck (name needs work too). The University of Washington Huskies are often referred to as the Dawgs.

        • Kerfuffle Monger says:

          No, I’ll leave the being a complete idiot to you since you seem to have the corner on that market.

          So it’s acceptable to spell dog some other way than how it’s supposed to be spelled and it’s acceptable that the school embraces this? I understand how it’s pronounced. That doesn’t give an educational facility artistic license over a word that has been spelled one way for centuries, only to replace it with a spelling based in hip-hop culture. Northern Illinois University’s mascot is The Huskies and guess what? They’re not dawgz or dawgs or wtf-ever you want to call them. They’re The Huskies.

          And Mel, wtf are you babbling about? How is The Spirits appalling? Did I say I don’t believe in dogs? Or that one or the other is not politically correct? Dude, clean your lenses and attempt to comprehend what you’re reading before you start spewing sh*t that has nothing to do with the matter-at-hand.

      • Mel says:

        WOW… uhm… wow. Nothing appalling about this. Since when are mascots required to be politically correct? Our school’s mascot is the Spirits. Maybe that’s offensive towards people who don’t believe in spirits.

        HOW DARE MY SCHOOL.

      • mak says:

        i must sadly tell you this is not a ghetto school, but the university of georgia. they take their mascots seriously and the town is plastered with “dawg” paraphernalia.

        • fak says:

          I must sadly tell you this is not the University of Georgia, they do not have a dog/dawg wearing a hat with the letters SR.

      • kid says:

        they are the Bulldogs. nickname Dawgs.

      • jessimacara says:

        You would hate Marin county then, cuz the school your kid would transfer to would be filled with white rich kids trying too hard to act ghetto, but is one of the most academically rigorous schools around.

      • Kimbat says:

        It’s San Rafael High School in California. It’s so ghetto that they even offer sailing as a P.E. option.

    • Failer says:

      LOL notice the NO DOGS sign behind it. XD

  2. Klasn says:

    First doggzstlyle

  3. Loz says:

    ‘Welcome home of the dawgs’, what an odd sentence.

  4. mr s.a.u.s.a.g.e says:

    2th!!! *masturbates*

  5. cicili says:

    I mean there have been LOADS of poorly proofread material onfailblog lately.

  6. X-Sebi says:

    och first time im first:D

  7. cicili says:

    Do you mean tooth, mr?

  8. Dirty dog says:

    Why dog no allowed in home of dogs? First

  9. mr s.a.u.s.a.g.e says:

    no dogs/home of the dawgs/no dogs/home of the dawgs….
    BSOD *dies*

  10. b says:

    I know “dogs” are not allowed, but can I bring my “dawg?”

  11. Bob Dole says:

    This makes no sense at all. I looked up DAWG on the internet and came up with the Dog Adoption & Welfare Group. Maybe they are only accepting dogs in the rear. (Eagerly awaits the double-entendre jokes to ensure)

  12. cicili says:

    What’s the ‘SR’ stan for on the dogs hat in the pic on the flag ?

  13. J-Dawg says:

    So Dawgs are allowed but dogs are not

    • comosaywhat says:

      Correct..and no dawgs go to heaven. Which seems to imply that, for whatever reason, this field and the aforementioned heaven are mutually exclusive.

  14. Nardo Polo says:

    Michael Vicks House?

  15. Allera says:

    My dawg doesn’t want to associate with your dog anyway…

  16. Mec296 says:

    Ok… or its 1337 or Gangsta.

  17. colin says:

    holy crap thats my old school!!

  18. Bimmy says:

    ~There’s fear and darkness all around you…

  19. Carroll says:

    Blue sign says “No Dogs.” Doesn’t say “No Dawgs”! ;-D

  20. Casey says:

    I think that it is cool

  21. thepowerofblue says:

    I better go pick up my paycheck. So if I’m MIA for a while it’s because all I wanna do is *three loud footsteps* and a *kaching* get my money.

  22. TrueGryphon says:

    Well, the mascot is a Dawg and not a dog… Fail on the fail

  23. BEN says:

    That’s my high school!!!!

  24. Koji Tojo says:

    No “Dogs” allowed, however it says
    nothing about “Dawgs”.

  25. Anon says:

    NO DOGS ALOWWWEEDDD…

  26. wordup says:

    The SR is for San Rafael High School. When I first saw this, I had a little high school rivalry flashback, because I went to cross-town rival Terra Linda High School…whose mascot is the Trojan…which i’ve come to realize is an auto-fail in itself because the Trojans LOST the Trojan War. It’s literally a loser mascot. If you’re still into stuff like that, anyway.

  27. nenernenernener says:

    I’m new here. What is the thing with the “Soviet Russia” comments?

  28. signe says:

    reminds me of when african-americans weren’t allowed on the premiere’s of their own movies :( :’( if it says home of the dogs, surely they should be welcome? but then on the other hand… if it was the sharks or tigers or cougars or whatever it might be a little difficult, so maybe it does make sense after all -_-’ ;)

  29. pandaKrusher says:

    Origin of “420.” Also, location of Night Ranger’s “Sister Christian” video. And Mr. Tovani.

  30. Tori says:

    The chained-up gate doesn’t exactly seem very welcoming…

  31. James says:

    two FAIL in one? look at the sign at the bottom.

  32. pew pew says:

    that’s not a fail, it a play on words.

    UW has the mascot of Husky and they say “Go Dawgs” because there is a certain pronunciation required.

    Dawg is not the same pronunciation as Dog.

  33. bobby says:

    this is near my house…i drive by it a lot and never noticed that sign

    epic fail

  34. arya says:

    HOLY SHIT, THIS SCHOOL IS RIGHT NEXT TO MY HOUSE! THEY ARE IN MY SCHOOL DISTRICT

  35. J - Dawg 4 Life says:

    I actually went to this high school and the spelling is intentional. Home of the JYD – Junk Yard Dawgs.

  36. omg says:

    THATS MY HIGH SCHOOL!

  37. guyguy says:

    this is san rafael hs, in san rafael, ca

  38. LittleBlueMan says:

    Heh. I don’t know if anyone still checks this, but I go to a school near this one. This is San Rafael High in Marin. Its an interesting school. That’s the soccer field where we regularly beat them down. And we refer to them as the puppies, not the dawgs.

    And yes, they are that dumb.

  39. Matt says:

    That would be a high school in nothern california, i saw that sign and i was like well thats intresting haha

  40. Matt says:

    San Rafel Hisghschool, not the brightest haha

  41. Triforce-Kun says:

    Oh dear god. That was my high school. I always hated how they spelled that; I’m glad to be out of there.

  42. trusts says:

    YES! this one is a legitimate fail. lol
