One thing that never fails to entertain me is watching dogs react to unexpected situations. Their responses bring so much joy to our lives. I have always cherished the looks on my dog’s face when he encounters something unfamiliar—whether he loves it or hates it.
Should he express displeasure, we quickly remove the item to prevent any distress. Nevertheless, it’s these moments that make our bond truly special. This sentiment was shared by Rebecca Adam, who recently purchased a ‘boyfriend pillow’ and discovered her dog’s amusing reaction to it.
It’s Not Yours Anymore

When Rebecca first introduced the boyfriend pillow into her home in California, she didn’t anticipate any reaction from her dog, Nugget. However, to her surprise, Nugget adored the pillow and essentially claimed it as his own. Rebecca soon realized that she had probably lost her beloved pillow for good, as it hardly left Nugget’s side.

At one point, Rebecca considered reclaiming the pillow but couldn’t bring herself to do it. She noticed how delighted Nugget was snuggling with it. Interestingly, Nugget is not typically a cuddly dog. He tends to shy away from cuddling with people, making his affection for the pillow even more surprising. Rebecca believes that this is not a fleeting phase—Nugget has firmly taken ownership of the pillow and likely won’t give it back.
What Did The Internet Say

Following the release of a video showcasing Nugget hugging the pillow, the internet responded with a flurry of adorable comments. One viewer remarked: “Not him looking at you like you’re interrupting! This is adorable.” It was evident that Nugget was in pure bliss when interrupted by Rebecca, affirming his love for the new pillow.
Another user commented: “I was sooooo weirded out by the way the person was laying, but as it zoomed in, I realized ohhhhhh a puppy.”

Despite how unusual the situation may appear, it’s clear that Nugget is truly relishing his new pillow, and that’s what matters the most. Another commenter mentioned: “I have a curved body pillow, and my chihuahua did the same thing.” This suggests that the shape of the pillow may indeed play a role in why dogs are drawn to them.
These reactions offer a delightful insight into our furry friends, and perhaps it’s worth considering getting our dogs a pillow for added cuddle time.
