When observing certain pet owners, it may appear as though people treat their pets like children. In turn, the dogs reciprocate this affection and do their best to imitate their human counterparts. Take this dog, for example – he is absolutely overjoyed.
After receiving a child-sized chair that perfectly matches his owner’s, the happy dog wears a continuous smile of delight. Lindsay Dyer discovered her dog Franklin at an animal shelter. The fluffy dachshund mix won her over with his friendly demeanor and the endearing gaze of his large, brown eyes.
Franklin adapted seamlessly to his new home and formed a strong bond with Lindsay. Perhaps a little too strong.
Franklin simply adores cuddling. It can be incredibly endearing until the moment Lindsay needs to get some work done.

Then Franklin’s attention becomes overly intrusive. Usually, Lindsay settles into a large Ikea chair to work. However, for Franklin, it’s an invitation for cuddles.
Have you ever tried petting a restless dog while simultaneously typing with them on your lap? It used to be no bother for Lindsay when she went to the office. However, with the onset of the pandemic, the office transitioned to her home.

But explaining this to a dog is futile. As Lindsay began spending more time at home, Franklin’s need for her affection only grew stronger.
Then, a realization struck Lindsay as she once again perused a furniture store catalog. She discovered that Ikea offered an exact replica of her work chair, only in a smaller size.
Lindsay hoped that once Franklin had his own chair, he would cease his attempts to usurp her spot.
“Needless to say, he is very pleased,” Dyer remarked. “This is his favorite place in my office.”

When Lindsay brought the chair home, she placed Franklin’s beloved stuffed toy on the seat. Franklin immediately understood what this meant. Just look at the expression on his face – it’s an absolutely priceless moment.
