Giant Dog Uses English Mastiff Brother As A Living Couch Cushion

Giant Dog Uses English Mastiff Brother As A Living Couch Cushion

Why look for an empty cushion when your brother is right there?


Bear the English Mastiff lay stretched across the floral couch, resting his heavy head directly in his mom's lap.

With Bear taking up practically the entire three-cushion sofa, there was technically zero room left for anyone else. But when you live in a house with multiple gentle giants, standard furniture limits are merely gentle suggestions. Seeing Bear lounging in luxury, his canine brother decided he was not about to be left out of cuddle time.

If it fits, two hundred pounds of dog sits

Rather than settling for the rug, the second dog hopped onto the remaining sliver of cushion. Realizing space was tight, he simply pivoted and lowered his entire back half right onto Bear’s back, turning the unbothered mastiff into an oversized, breathing throw pillow.

A heavyweight cuddle pile with zero complaints

Off-camera, their parents broke into laughter as the two settled into their chaotic stack, as first reported by DogTime. True to classic English Mastiff temperament, Bear barely flinched under the extra hundred pounds of brotherly love, keeping his eyes half-closed and soaking in the head scratches from Mom.

Shared to Instagram by @brindlebearthemastiff, the pure living room humor struck an immediate chord with giant-breed fans:

"Bear Bear doesn’t care care. Not even a flinch from him. Oh mastiffs… the best examples of being laid back."
"Room for all."
