What is it about big dogs that make them think they're lap dogs?

[–] Talaraine@kbin.social 53 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I think they remember doing it when they were puppies xD.

Of course I can fit. duh

This is actually what it is.

People always let puppies on their lap and the dog doesn't understand why they're suddenly not allowed in the lap it's always been allowed in.

In fact most training is best done as a pup because that's when they learn the best

Okay, but how is that related to the picture? That's clearly a smol pup.

I'm sure it has never occurred to them that there is any kind of dog that is not a lap dog.

The couch is the only "dog bed" that's a comfy size. The fact that it's already occupied is just a minor inconvenience. Plus, dogs like to be close.
