This Resident Dog Did Not Sign Up For A Full-Time Lap Guest

"Ray gets along so well, but sometimes the little puppy snuggles up a little too much," Michelle wrote.


A found tan-and-white puppy has decided the best seat in the house is the exact center of a big black dog’s front legs. He is already sprawled there like the lease was always in his name, one paw up, zero interest in negotiating personal space.

At @_michelledenham, Michelle keeps catching the moment her resident dog Ray becomes the furniture.

Michelle wrote that the stray puppy they found “has made himself right at home in Ray’s arms.” Ray gets along so well, she shared, but sometimes the little one snuggles up a little too much. Then comes the detail that cracks her up: Ray’s face, patient and a little stunned, while the puppy digs in deeper.

Commenters saw the roommate tension right away. One shared, “Already in love. That's a cute little stray but Ray may disagree. But you know what if he didn't like it he'd get up.” Another wrote, “I am sure Ray is hoping new owners step forward 😂”

Michelle shared that they are still looking for the puppy’s people and talking through every option, including whether he stays or finds a new home. For now, the little guy keeps treating Ray’s arms like home base — and Ray keeps letting him.
