Agreed on both. The dog looks like he’s thrilled to be anywhere his people. I had a dobie and he was a Velcro dog. I miss him.

Dobies have had a bad rep. I agree with you that they are velcro/large lap dogs. Mine takes up 3/4 of the bed and most of the back seat of my car:

We have 2 pugs a big boy and a little one. The cat follows us all around the neighborhood when we take the dogs on walks. It’s the funniest **** you’ve ever seen.

Looks a little tight though, how many inches would you say are left with the car in garage? My LS and LX fit in garage by about 6-7 inches, it’s close. We almost had a problem first night in the house lol, big time.

We should have a "Pets of CL" thread. This is our dog living her best life. Unfortunately she hates the car - long road trips are really hard on her so we end up giving her medicine that really chills her out without completely knocking her out. We rescued her as a 12 week old puppy and she loved the car for the first 6 months, and then something happened (not with us, but we think with someone else who drove her) and now she gets so nervous in the car. Everyone thinks she's a golden puppy but she's full grown (15 lbs) and 80% poodle, 10% cocker spaniel, 10% lab.

I grew up with dogs and loved them, but some reason I just find them too needy now. I now have a very lazy and friendly cat that will sleep in all conditions, including 4th of July fireworks.

Lots of beautiful fur babies!!!! Do you all sleep with your dogs? Ours sleep with us, usually under the covers or above our heads.

Pugs are HUGGGE cuddlers, wouldn't have it any other way. Coco, my smallest, came and made a nest in the nook of my foreaarm as I was asleep yesterday.

I vote for a new thread for cars and dogs

Man's best friend!

And, car related so it doesn't get sent to the Clubhouse.

Heck, I'll have my mutts pose for a pic in my car just for fun if someone wants to do it!

My Mom has a wonderful King Cavalier Charles whom I have a special bond with and I want to take him in the convertible but she's scared he will jump out. Helicopter parent, lol. But her last dog passed from a horrible accident that was not her fault so I can’t blame her.

Surely he wouldn't jump out?

This is Redford:

Our dobie sleeps above the covers til about 1am, then she wants to go under the covers. Our other pup, a chihuahua/pit bull mix (don't ask) is very independent. Sometimes in the bed, other times in the living room on the couch or in one of the multiple dog beds in the house.

There is a cat thread, not sure if there is a dog thread. I agree we should start such a thread!

Oh its got 3 feet left behind it. I leave room so we can easily walk behind it since the door to the house is on the side right there. No need to walk in front of it so I just put it where it has 2-3 inches before the door
