生活的狗

The phrase 'Shenghuode gou' literally translates to 'the dog of life'. In some contexts, it conveys a sarcastic or self-mocking tone in Chinese culture. People may use it when they feel overwhelmed by challenges or pressure from daily life, as if they are metaphorically running after their tails just like an ill-treated dog. It reflects the speaker's feeling about facing difficulties or unfair treatment while also expressing resilience through irony.
