An endearing video titled "Once a lapdog, always a lapdog" has captured hearts online with its portrayal of a lovable Irish Wolfhound. This gentle giant, despite its size, insists on cuddling up on its owner's lap, demonstrating that some habits never change.

Viewers of the video are charmed by the dog's affectionate nature. One user humorously remarks, "I wonder if he will still be this cuddly when he's big," likely unaware that the dog is already fully grown. Another comment highlights the breed's beauty, stating, "What a beautiful Irish Wolfhound."

The video has also sparked a wave of relatable stories from other dog owners. One user shared their experience with a 6-month-old German Shepherd named Rush, who becomes more cuddly over time. Another recounts life with an 80lb Pitt mix who still loves to sleep at their feet, regardless of her size.

One particularly witty comment says, "Miss, your lap seems to be shrinking. I’ll just stretch out here, quick," while another jestingly congratulates the owner on their "pony."

The video also inspired some playful banter, with a user suggesting, "Please deposit your companion into the nearest Aperture Science Emergency Cuteness Incinerator before continuing," and another commenting on the dog's tail, "The full-bodied snuggles are the BEST!"

The emotional nature of the video also brought out sentiments about the bond between humans and their pets. "All dogs are lap dogs if they love you enough," one user writes, while another reflects, "To them we must seem like unchanging, magical beings."

Despite the joy these large breeds bring, some viewers express concern about their relatively short lifespans. "The fact that their lifespan is 6-10 years is heartbreaking," one comment laments, reminding us to cherish every moment with our furry friends.

The consensus is clear: whether a small puppy or a large dog, the love and affection they share with their owners remain unwavering. This Irish Wolfhound's insistence on being a lapdog, despite its size, is a testament to their enduring loyalty and the special place they hold in our hearts.

Me with my 80lb Pitt mix. As a puppy she slept between my feet on the bed. She still thinks it's a wonderful spot to sleep. Meanwhile I'm just in starfish pose.

My Rush is 6 month old Germain Shepard. He was always a cuddly dog but he is getting more cuddly. I usually put on a anime with subtitles so I don't make too much noise and wake him.

I always wanted an Irish Hound. I’d name him Grimlock.

I have a 130 lb great Pyrenees who kept growing for >2 years. She's the best couch blanket you could ask for.
