These Big Dogs Can’t Get Over The Fact That They’re Not Puppies Anymore

Big Dog, Little Bed

Little dogs often have the biggest attitudes. The owners of these pups bought a big dog for their big Wolfhound and a small bed for their small chihuahua mix. In this house, though, th chihuahua makes the rules.

Chihuahuas don't care about what society views as 'normal' for doggo behavior. They're going be themselves, and feel fully empowered living their alternative lifestyles. Even if that means that their brothers use hardwood as a pillow.

He Needed A Break

This pup was having the time of his life going for a lovely hike when he just got too tired to walk one more step. He was about to lie down and take a break when his owner picked him up and hoisted him over her shoulder. What a way to walk!

Yeah, this move may be common practice with a smaller dog, but you don't often see a husky being carried over somebody's shoulder.

That's Not Why We Have Ottomans

What do you do when your dog is too big for a two-seater couch? You extend the couch with an ottoman. Okay, so maybe it's going to take more than a couch and an ottoman to hold this Great Dane, but that's where his owner's legs come in handy.

Can this guy even see the TV over his dog's giant head? Probably not. Oh well, it's probably just a commercial on anyway. Who needs television when you have a Great Dane?

He Wants To Be Carried

This husky clearly has attachment issues. Dogs like this won't leave their owner's side. They want to be carried everywhere. The problem is, when they aren't puppies anymore, they're too big to be carried.

This owner goes above and beyond for his needy pup, though. He isn't going to carry his dog everywhere all the time, but he doesn't mind picking him up every once in a while. He gets a good bicep work out and the dog gets a good hug.

Netflix And Squish

If you're the kind of person who loves to lounge on the couch and watch Netflix, get yourself a big, lazy dog. This giant Newfie dog loves to sit back, relax, and watch the latest season of Stranger Things.

This dog just wants to be included, and sometimes that means that this girl gets big fluffy dog butt in her face, but she doesn't mind. The dog could lay on the ground, but what's the fun in that?

The Best Brunch Date

This Labrador Retriever is the perfect brunch date. He obviously loves to go on walks, but what he loves even more than that is going on walks to the local café and sitting on his owner's lap while she orders a macchiato and a bagel. The dog always gets to have a bite of the bagel.

Many people love to take their dogs out to restaurants and sit on the patio while their pup curls up under the table. Not this dog.

Is That A Wolf?

This picture seems to say, "Hey, what are you looking at?" Yeah, that's a big dog, but who says big dogs can't sleep on the couch? Okay, so maybe common sense says that a dog this big shouldn't sleep on the couch, but this husky seems to be okay with defying common sense.

Clearly, this is a normal day for the duo - the dog doesn't realize how big he is and the owner hasn't seemed to notice that his pup is now bigger than he is.

The Biggest Baby

This Mastiff was jealous of the new baby in the family. How come this baby gets to sit on the couch and he has to sit on the floor. He's sitting on the couch in an act of protest.

There's only room for one baby in this house, and according to this pup, that baby has four legs and fur. These two are probably going to be the best of friends someday, but for now, they're at a stalemate over this couch.

Caught In A Small Space

This dog hasn't realized that she's not small enough to crawl under chairs anymore. Back when she was a puppy, she could fit under that chair no problem. Now that she's a full-grown adult dog, her butt is a bit bigger than it used to be.

Now she's stuck in a tough position. Maybe her owners can help her get out of this mess. But first, they're going to take a picture so they can remember this moment.

His Butt Is Too Big For The Couch

Let's cuddle like we always do... The girl on the left looks amused and happy she has a dog resting on her shoulder while the right on the right is clearly getting suffocated by a St. Bernard. They're nice enough to let him sit instead of shoving him off the couch like most people would.

He Just Wants To Be Held

Dogs love seeing their owners when they get home from work and need rubs and pats! This dog got into the routine of sitting on his owner's lap at night and isn't quite ready to let that go. His owner seems happy to humor him.

Morning Cuddles

It's either early in the morning or in the middle of the night when this doggo decided to jump up on the bed and lay with his owner. The person trying to get some shut-eye does not seem amused, however, as they have 100 pounds of dog covering most of their body

Everybody Is Staring

This girl loves her dog and she loves her back. Together they share a recliner as they relax poolside. This is normal, as the "puppy" curls up on her owner's lap. But look at the kids to her left, looking on like it's the circus. This pup wouldn't hurt a fly.

Floofs On Patrol

This scooter isn't designed with airbags, but that's okay. This guy has two Old English Sheepdogs to keep him safe. These dogs are around 22 inches long and weigh up to 100 pounds! I think he's hit the scooter's maximum weight capacity.

Too Heavy For The Porch Swing

This dog appears to be a shepherd-wolf mix and was definitely a cuddler when they were a puppy. That soft side never went away and this dog still wants to cozy up on their owner's lap. Hopefully, that porch swing is sturdy!

He Doesn't Fit, But He Still Sits

Here's another owner who doesn't think it's the best idea for the big dog to sit on their lap, but they go with it and humor the dog anyway. This happy pup is cozy and content while their owner looks like she's got about all the weight she can take on her lap.

Making Room

This protective pooch loves to sit on his owner's lap while she watches TV from her armchair. It doesn't look comfortable for either of them, but what's a bit of sacrifice for love? The dog's face says she knows she's too big but she doesn't need your judgment. The next huge pup loves brunch just as much as we do.

Trying To Work

This woman took her dog to the office, expecting to get some work done while her dog can relax and keep her company. Well, that didn't go as planned, as the minute this golden sees a lap, she has to sit on it. They say dogs in the workplace can be distracting... case in point. The next dog doesn't quite realize he's not a puppy anymore.

Everyone Jump In The Bath

It's way easier and more efficient to get things done when you can take care of multiple things at once. The boy needs a bath, and so do the puppies- but wait, here comes Rex. This big doggo still wants to be included during bath time, even though he's the size of the tub. The next dog is huge he doesn't even look real!

Too Big For The Room

It must be awkward when you invite company over and they see your dog for the first time. Yes, he's ginormous, no, he doesn't know he is. This dog takes up half of the living room and still insists on sitting in your lap. At least they look like a sweetheart.

Taking A Break

This dog is just trying to chill with his family outside but tried to sit in a chair like his human counterparts. He always used to be placed in chairs when he was a pup, but is trying to ignore the fact that now he can't fit comfortably on the chair like he used to.

Tagging Along For A Road Trip

This Imgur user said that his dog thinks he's a parrot. The dog apparently is trying to sit on his owner's shoulder like it's no big deal, but his owner doesn't seem too pleased. This dog is probably just too attached to his owner that he doesn't want to leave his side!

Movie Night!

Pinterest

This dog is totally excited about movie night! She got there just in time to sit comfortably on her mom's lap. She probably doesn't get why you're taking a picture when you could be putting the movie on! Anyone up to watch Air Bud?

A Weird Position

This dog has had a rough day and wants nothing more than to curl up with her mom and be held. She apparently thinks she still small enough to be curled up and fit in her mom's lap! But this awkward position will have to do for now. Anything to be comforted.

He Still Wants To Be A Puppy

This dog is still a puppy in his owner's eyes. His owner has no qualms about letting his oversized dog still sit in his lap, just like when he was a pup. In his owner's eyes he will always be that adorable little puppy they got years ago. Some things never change.

Lounging Around

This dog sits on this guy's lap as if he belongs there. He doesn't realize that he is barely sitting on the nice man's lap because his legs are too big. The guy knows this is awkward but doesn't have the heart to tell the dog to get down.

Sharing The Chair

This dog doesn't care if that puppy and little girl are sitting in his chair. That's his chair and he can sit in it anytime he wants to, no matter what or who is in the way. Good luck to the little girl who now has to find a way to get out from under this shaggy dog.

Where He Always Sits

This grandma and this dog have been together for as long as grandma still had her kids in the house! But since they've all gone and had kids of their own, at least she's had her faithful companion by her side after all these years. He will forever be a grandma's boy.

A Puppy Forcefield

This puppy will help you find the perfect hiding spot during a rousing game of hide and seek. But what better spot to hide than underneath him? This doesn't look conspicuous at all. No one will ever be able to notice there's a human under this puppy... that is, until you see the legs.

He Doesn't Fit In That Bed Anymore

This dog is overly attached to the bed she had as a puppy. She still thinks she can sleep in it comfortably and doesn't want her owner to get rid of it. Just like a baby and their favorite stuffed animal, nothing else will match the comfort of things that soothed you when you were small.

Hide And Seek

This dog used to be able to crawl underneath the bed with no problem, but that doesn't seem to be the case here. Either way, that didn't stop him from trying! Hiding underneath the bed was and always will be his favorite thing to do because the best part about it was having his owner find him.

Chilling In The Backyard

This dog is just chilling out with her owner and couldn't be more relaxed. This is how her owner likes to hold her in her lap and this is how it always will be no matter how big she grows up to be! There is nothing stronger than this bond!

Still A Puppy At Heart

This dog strolled up to this gathering with her owner but there will be no sitting on the ground for her. Nope, as her owner's faithful companion, she is entitled to her loving owner's lap. But her owner seems happy to oblige at the very least. This dog truly lives like a princess.

Still A Lapdog

This dalmatian loved being held by her owner, especially when it feels like her owner is paying more attention to her work than to her! Her owner has a huge soft spot for her spotty pup, so she doesn't have the heart to tell her "No." Some owners will do anything for their dogs.

The Only Place He Wants To Sit

This dog was brought along to the tailgate party and is ready for some fun! He loves to be a part of the action, if not the life of the party! That includes sitting on everyone's lap and getting all the attention like he did when he was a puppy.

Cuddle Time!

This dog saw that his owner brought her work home and decided that he will have none of that in this household. His owner left him to be at work all day so now he is demanding the attention he has been waiting so patiently for. Now put away the papers!

The Perfect Spot

"Don't mind me, I'm just watching television!" Of all places for this gigantic dog to sit, he chose to sit on his owner's feet on top of the ottoman. This is the perfect spot for the pup to catch tonight's episode of Jeopardy! (but everyone knows he's just there to catch the pet commercials!).

Time To Take A Nap

This dog probably saw his owner taking a nice nap and wanted to join in on the cuddles. Well, it seems that this boy was woken up with a furry surprise in his face! This dog doesn't know what everyone is laughing about, he's just trying to catch up on his sleep too.

He Just Wants Love

This girl doesn't seem that pleased that her dog decided to sit right on top of her. But her dog has missed her since she left for school and couldn't possibly wait another second for her return! We're sure that the girl was happy to see her dog too but probably thinks that this was a bit unnecessary.
