Dog(s) He said we absolutely could not keep her

That was eight months ago. This is her reaction to him getting back from the shop.

So well behaved! Such a good pup

u/OoT-TheBest 12d ago

Super well behaved. No jumping up. That butt is just glued to the floor

u/Cakers44 12d ago

And she even kind of seemed to wait for him to do that classic dog play pose (smacking both his hands on the ground) before she went in. Could be me misreading, but a very polite pup still

There is truly nothing like coming home to your pup(s)

So many bad days flipped to great days the second I walked in the door. I know I’m not the only one.

u/SpaceAngel2001 11d ago

I came home today for only the 2nd time in a week. Wife has been in hospital and now hospice for 10 days. Everything in my life seems awful but the pup greeting me, demanding and giving love made my day.

u/GrapefruitSobe 10d ago

I’m so sorry your wife is in hospice. Sending love and best wishes to you and your family.

It's honestly hard to tell who's happier, him or the pup lol.

u/VictorTheCutie 12d ago

What a well behaved little gal! That floppy puppy excitement just never ever gets old. I have a 3 yo doodle that acts exactly like this except she's 53 lbs lol

u/Impossible_Phase5854 10d ago

Me too ‼️❤️❤️🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽Sbs

Absolutely makes my day

u/Faedoodles 12d ago

I don't care how much you don't want an animal- having someone that unconditionally happy just to see you is healing to your soul. Such true and honest love is a gift.

My dad said he hated smaller dogs, but he loved my (unfortunately deceased after about 16 years together)pup and would sneak him salami and cheese whenever I’d take him to visit. He also said he hated cats but I saw otherwise when he thought no one was watching. To be fair, 2 of the cats we had loved peeing on his suits before work or a trip, but he’d give the tabby that did that belly rubs and my tortie who didn’t all the scritches.

u/Suninabottle 12d ago

Yes, it’s obvious he absolutely cannot stand her. /s

52

u/AnotherAnonymousA 12d ago

I think his ploy all along was, we ain't keeping it. We will foster until it finds a home. We know...lil pup has already found its home!

u/Redbeardthe1st 12d ago

He's clearly making the best of a bad situation.

u/JimmyTwoTimes25 12d ago

And she's not even a barker!

12

u/Lexi_Banner 12d ago

My last dog is a barker (Kevin's still alive, he was just kidnapped by grandma). My two new dogs (which I got because of said kidnapping) are NOT barkers. It is such a quiet life now! And when Kevin comes for a visit, I can't believe I lived with that noise machine for twelve years! LOL

u/Hot_Transition_5173 12d ago

Yep she melted his big ole heart!

u/sneefsnteefs 12d ago

why do we all have the same conversations with them? WHERE YOU BEEN I NO SEE YOU ALLLLLLLL DAAAAAAAYYYYYY 😘😘😘

24

u/Ambitious_Owl_9204 12d ago

They just know who to win over...

I had to leave my dogs with my parents since I moved out of the country. One of them passed away, he had some health issues and was getting old, but the other has become my dad's dog, and I fear I will never be able to take him back...

But they were, and are, loved and spoiled, so in the end, it's OK.

18

u/MissMomomi 12d ago

I feel this. I moved home to take care of my parents and my cat almost instantly became my dad’s cat. Follows him like a shadow, sleeps on his bed. The not-a-lap-cat sits in his lap all the time. Not the girl who raised him for 10 years 😆. I love the bond they have though. It’s so precious!

22

u/WinterDice 12d ago

Seeing my dog when I get home is often the best part of my day.

17

u/Sea_Produce4997 12d ago

Awwwww who could not keep her she's the sweetest Lil 💗 dog i would definitely keep him her i would find a way that helped her him have a home ❤️ alot of pets don't have homes they're in shelters so think before you can't take in any animal large or small they deserve to be happy to

14

u/Cajunqueenie13 12d ago

A couple of days ago, my SIL sent me a picture of my brother asleep on the sofa with the stray that “they were never going to keep” and then, “was never allowed in the house”. The dog was on his back sleeping spread eagle after a nice nutritious blackstone grilled meal of unseasoned chicken and veggies. lol

Can anyone share what kind (breed) of dog this is? Thanks!

u/Ok_Set7871 12d ago

Absolutely LOVE IT!!! 😍

u/OffMyRocker62 12d ago

So darn adorable! My Staffy was the same, and would grab what ever was nearby and bring it to me, or my son when he got home.

He once ran to the kitchen and brought him the dust pan. 😅

u/Spider-Ian 12d ago

I have to greet my pup outside, she gets the excited tinkles.

u/vintagefi 12d ago

Do Americans really just come in from the outside with their shoes and step on carpet? Canadian asking. Cause wtf.

u/Vegetable-Pay2708 12d ago

How precious! Perfect love on display. Got to love that. ❤️ Thanks for sharing this. I need a smile today. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

1

u/Madouc 12d ago

It's typical. dad's always refuse to adopt the pup and then they are the ones most clinged to the sweetie.

So where was that warm, affectionate welcome for you?

1

u/SystemicPandemic 12d ago

I wish I could do this when I come home but my dog would piss EVERYWHERE

1

u/LittleSodaPop13 12d ago

That's Daddy's girl

1

u/Mundane-Zucchini5 12d ago

Yeah, I think she's here to stay ❤️

u/probably_nontoxic 12d ago

That dog didn’t get adopted. The husband got adopted by the dog. ❤️

1

u/Ooze76 12d ago

Yeaaaah, It was the same with me and our dog. 12 years have passed since then. I was always saying i didn't want any dog and didn't want to keep him (he was adopted) but here we are ahaha.

u/bartekk2018 12d ago

u/vulpecula1919 12d ago

u/Abal125 12d ago

Super excited puppers! 🥰

True love💖

u/casstay123 12d ago

They always say that…

1

u/iwishiwasMikey 12d ago

Yeah. We're softies no matter how hard we try. The 2 black voids causing heck on my living room and furniture speaks to this. Do I wish they didn't destroy all the things, yes. Would I trade any of the time with them for anything? Y'all know that answer.

And don't be silly, they're still with us... today 😆

u/filmplanet_ 12d ago

u/elainefunke 11d ago

God I miss my girl. She passed a few months ago. She was an old lady. I miss when she was a spritely little pup like this. What a life she had. Cherish your doggies. I miss her kissing her head and her soft little ears.

u/David4Nudist 11d ago

I feel so bad for this wonderful dog. He didn't want to keep her.

🥺

1

u/origprod 11d ago

It's such a shame they don't like each other.

1

u/Plenty_Prompt_213 11d ago

Those greetings are the best!

1

u/latortillablanca 11d ago

I love it, i understand it, ive done it.

but if you wanna train yer pup to not have separation anxiety when you leave you need to only give it direct feedback on arrival when its in that calm submissive state. Its an extremely valuable training opportunity every time you come home—and one way or the other you are training a behavior.

Now some dogs dont ruin yer house if theyre trained to this behavior, but thats like a luck of the draw thing.

1

u/Zygmunt-zen 11d ago

That pup is a tornado of squishy goodness.

1

u/BroManDudeGuySir513 10d ago

Yeah my dad said the same thing about the cat and the dog. I said the sa.e thing about the cat amd the dog and the cat and the dog. But when you come home and you have all 4 of them waiting for you like this? Theres no saying no.

1

u/SweetOrlaith 10d ago

Ooh she’s so excited. Look at the little butt move with happiness

u/xGinnyygoddess 5d ago
