[PHOTOS] Having A Bad Day? Grumpy Earl's Puppy Face Will Make You Feel Much Better

Many of you may know Grumpy Cat, the grouchy looking feline that took the Internet by storm back in 2012

But the time is up for a new grumpy animal to take the throne...

Introducing, Earl the Grumpy puppy, a 5-month-old Pug and Beagle mix with an attitude of well, a cranky old man

Earl first hit the front pages of Reddit, and has now gained a following on Instagram and Facebook, with over 10k followers on both accounts

Earl lives with his owner 25-year-old Derek Bloomfield and his girlfriend in Iowa, USA

Just like Grumpy Cat, Earl is starting to become a meme...

Earl is not an ordinary dog, he doesn't follow orders really well...

... like seriously

Earl is pretty picky with his food too...

... he's always wanted to try chocolate :(

Patience isn't one of Earl's strongest attributes

Don't mess around with Earl. He's always into serious business.

Happiness? What's that?

Someone compared Earl to Samuel L.Jackson. The resemblance is disturbing...

Not to be misunderstood, Earl has his mellow times too. Like this shot of him gazing into the abyss...

... and this shot of him resting after a long day meeting his legion of fans. Look at that face of gratitude!
