“Come onnnn. Come sit,” he seemed to say. Ugh, this was really so tempting. I don’t know how anyone could resist!
“Watch my dog ever so subtly gesture and strategically guide me to sit next to him for head scratches,” the video’s text overlay reads. “Can’t sit buddy. I’m vacuuming up your hair,” the person joked.
He loves her! That’s why he wants her to hang out. People in the comments section were so incredibly charmed by the dog’s gesture. They couldn’t stop talking about it in the comments section.
“He said, ‘C’mon, c’mon take a lil’ seat next to meh,’” teased someone in the comments section.
“So suave. So smooth. No words, but he’s a sweettalker,” joked another person.
“I think the vacuuming can wait,” added one commenter.
“Is the subtle in the room with us?” one person quipped.
Best Places to Pet a Dog
All dogs love a little lovin’. But every pet parent knows there are better places to pet your pooch than others. When going in for your next snuggle session, try to pet your dog’s head, ears, back, shoulders, neck, chest, and belly.
It might be tempting, but you should probably never pet your dog’s tail or its paws. They don’t really like it and it can really upset them! So when it comes to your pup, pet wisely.
