These Clingy Dogs Will Do Anything but Give Their Mom Space, and It's Hilarious
Listen, I love all of the pups in my family just as any pet lover would. However, as any pet parent can relate, sometimes they love me just a little too close at all times. Whether it's going to the bathroom or just grabbing the remote, there's always a little furry friend right next to my foot ready to accompany me to my destination. And while there are times where I definitely wish they would maybe take a step or two back, at least I can say they aren't as clingy as this Great Dane and Chihuahua.
While Mom just wanted to take a few minutes to enjoy her favorite book, this dynamic duo thought it was a great time to squish together for some dog bonding time. To make things even better, the pair couldn't find a better place to sit than on top of their human, obviously.

"The Cow and the Large Cat Are Paid Actors"

Contrary to the user who commented, "The cow and the large cat are paid actors," this dog mom, in fact, is dealing with a Great Dane and a Chihuahua trying to smother her with cuddles. While she may have planned to sit down and read, these two thought it would be the perfect time for a family meeting.
All squished onto one couch, it's clear that neither dog knows an inch of personal space. As if the closeness wasn't enough, the Great Dane also believes it is a lap dog and immediately tried to lie on top of mom. Despite the lack of boundaries, we can't imagine a cuter way of feeling cramped in.
The comment section was having a blast with the situation, with many noticing the adorable Great Dane's incredible size. One user commented, "Ma'am, I think your cow is waiting for you to read them a bedtime story." Another viewer added, "The look back was certainly 'Do we have a problem here?'" One commenter summarized the entire comment section brilliantly with a simple, "That's not a dog, that's a FRICKING HORSE!!!!!!! IT'S HUUUGE!!!!."
Although we are all very aware of just how big that furry friend is, we aren't entirely sure he knows how big he is, which explains why he believes he's a lap dog. In the end, we can't help but love these adorably clingy little beings.
