Golden Retriever Uses Dad’s Head as a Pillow Leaving Him ‘Stuck’ in the Best Way
If you're looking for something to make you smile, this video of Nala, the Golden Retriever, using her dad Chris' head as a pillow will do it! Chris shared the video at the beginning of August and judging from the comments, it brightens up a lot of days when people see it!
There's not much too the video - Chris is recording himself and Nala laying on the floor. Nala is using his head as her pillow and Chris is talking to her while she tries to rest. Make sure your sound is on so you can hear what he says!

What a great way to be stuck! Nala looked like she wanted her dad to just stop talking; she also looked very comfy. Hundreds of people agreed and left some cute comments. Even Chris' caption was perfect, "Her eyebrows are giving “Why is my pillow talking?" LOL!" @tanngrisnr395 pointed out, "Everyone has a purpose. You are fortunate that this is yours." and @eliehammana added, "That’s your job for the day. Is it too much to ask for?"

How Do Dogs Show Their Love
The bond between Nala and Chris is very strong...you can see it in all of their videos. Dogs love their humans, and they have many different ways of showing it. If you had to come up with a list of ways dogs show their love to you, it would probably include the obvious ways they do it: wagging their tail, licking you, and always wanting to cuddle and be near you.
There are some less obvious ways that they show their love as well, like when your dog leans against you. Another Pet Helpful article explains why they lean, "When your fur baby leans against you, they're looking to you for comfort, love, and security. In the wild, they look to the pack leader for guidance and leadership, so it's only natural they would go to you in this situation, right?" They may also follow you everywhere or you may catch them staring at you. These are all signs of trust and affection.
Does your dog ever yawn when you yawn? That's love! "We all know about contagious yawning. In a nutshell, this is a sign of empathy. Although there may be other instances where your dog will yawn, when your dog yawns after or with you, they are expressing empathy towards you."
If your dog sits on top of the laundry pile or steals your socks, shoes, or clothing, they love you. While it might be annoying to us, it means a lot to them. Our scent makes them happy and puts them at ease. Try to remember that the next time you're missing an article of clothing and find it in their bed. They just always want to be near you!
