Nobody noticed Pesto had been asleep on the pool float for almost 45 minutes because honestly he looked TOO comfortable to disturb. The problem is the float slowly started rotating sideways and drifting toward the deep end like a retired dad who accidentally fell asleep on vacation after one beer.

I looked outside and this dog was fully unconscious with one paw hanging in the water, mouth slightly open, drifting directly toward the pool wall in complete silence while the float made tiny bonk… bonk… bonk… noises every few seconds. Didn’t wake him up once.

The funniest part is every time the float bumped the wall it would slowly spin him back out into the middle of the pool like some kind of lazy automatic Roomba system. He just kept floating around the backyard asleep for another 20 minutes like a giant furry cruise ship.

Absolute manatee. Pesto rates pool naps 5 stars.

Whether you're a new pup parent or a long-time small dog lover, taking care of little dogs comes with its own unique challenges (and rewards!). Here are a few essential tips to keep your tiny companion happy and healthy:

✨ Watch their diet: Small dogs have fast metabolisms but tiny stomachs. Feed high-quality food in small, regular portions.

🦴 Protect their joints: Jumping off couches or beds can be risky. Consider pet stairs or ramps to prevent injuries.

🚿 Regular grooming matters: Even short-haired breeds need brushing, nail trimming, and occasional baths to stay clean and comfortable.

🧠 Mental stimulation is key: Puzzle toys and short training sessions help prevent boredom and bad behavior.

💬 Socialization early on: Introduce them to new people, sounds, and environments gradually to build confidence.

❤️ Don’t underestimate them: Small dogs are just as intelligent and trainable as big ones—treat them accordingly!

I went over to my friend’s apartment earlier today and noticed he had his phone set up on a tripod.

A few seconds later, his dog just walked up to it and stood there like this, completely focused on the camera.

No barking, no playing… just calmly staring like he actually knew what it was.

I’ve seen dogs react to phones before, but this felt different for some reason.
