Owning a dog is a beautiful thing…but something tells me you already knew that.
One day, it’s just you, being a human…maybe by yourself, maybe with other humans…and then, boom, there’s a little (…or maybe not so little) creature hanging out with you all the time. He’s your responsibility. He’s your source of parental worry. He’s your immediate best friend.
It can take some getting used to, but when you get into the swing of things…it’ll be hard to imagine a time when you didn’t think of/snuggle your pup every chance you have. We’re their best friends too! Watch as these puppies explain the confusing experience that is watching their owner go absolutely anywhere without them.
It’s 7am and you look so peaceful.
Don’t worry! I’ll fix that!
You ignore your battery-powered alarm clock, but there’s no way you can resist this one..it runs on a wagging tail, stretchy yawns and lots (and lots) of kisses!
Don’t fight it, human…just give into the cuteness!
Morning snuggle, commence! You talk to me in a high pitched voice and use my nicknames (I think I’ve accumulated about 10 total…) and it’s just so much fun! After we greet each other, we both get kind of sleepy again, and I nuzzle up and begin to doze off.

You do too, I guess…because suddenly you wake up again and look like:
You leap out of bed, ready to race around and get ready, but wait! Aren’t you forgetting something……
Messy hair, eyes barely open…you sigh and scratch behind my ears and leash me up, then we go to the most magical place on earth: OUTSIDE

After all that pure joy, I sure work up an appetite…
While you go toward the indoor bathroom mumbling to yourself, I help myself to a little grub:
Then…it happens. You rub my belly and kiss my head and make sure my favorite toys are in reach…and then…you leave.
I try to entertain myself while you’re gone, sure…
But there’s really no denying it…when you’re not here, I’m just sort of…stuck.
So I try to distract myself by eating my feelings:
But even that doesn’t work…
Then….I hear it! Your keys. Your footsteps. You’re….you’re here!
YOU’RE BACK YOU’RE BACK YOU’RE BACK! How was your day? What did you do? Did you bring treats? WHY CAN’T I SPEAK??
You say something about only being gone for a half hour…but…but it can’t be! It felt like an eternity!
Either way…I’m just glad to have you back, human.
…is it time for evening cuddles yet?
