For images where the text reads correctly left to right, but visual cues (like colouration, vertical proximity, or horizontal separation) lead you to try to read it top to bottom.
This is similar to, but distinct from, the more widely known “DontDeadOpenInside” format. In that case, the text reads correctly top to bottom, but visual cues (like colouration, horizontal proximity, or vertical separation) lead you to try to read it left to right.

Mkay... How does one fulfill the request to "gay dogs?"
first step in "be pet gay dogs" is getting yourself a nice collar
Ah, that explains it - leather, I'm guessing?
The joke is pup play
Too old & out of the loop, I guess. Sorry.
I know some folks into pup play from my circles who range from 40 to 65+ hahaha. Mostly gay dudes, so if you’re not gay dude, I can see how that might not have crossed your path.
Nope. Straight as can be (but without all the insecurities about my manliness that make so many become assholes). Thanks for clearing that up - makes me feel slightly less clueless.
For more context pup play is more of a bdsm thing than a gay thing it's a roleplay sex thing
Gay is still an adjective in that one. It is requesting gay dogs to be pet.
Gay dogs deserve to be pet roo
Roo?
It's what makes them gay.
I pet dogs frequently, do I now have to divorce my spouse due to irreconcilable differences of bodily parts?
YOU HAVE THE GAY
Oh, shit! Get it off! GET IT OFF!!!
NO, I DIDN'T MEAN GET THAT OFF!!!
Serious case of gay
It's difficult to be serious when you're gay (happy).
It's difficult to be serious when you're gay (pee pee in butt).
"Be Dogs, Pet Gay"
I think we need a , somewhere in here
It's right there in OP's title.
Actually I think the missing punctuation mark is a colon. Then it would say Be pet: gay dogs, which means that "gay dogs" is a clarification of which kind of pet we are being instructed to be.
I swear I'm fun at parties...
