@ickplant@lemmy.world Gryff definitely thinks he’s a lapdog, moreso, even, than his 52lb #pittie predecessor (she was more-insistant on laying next to me; he wants to be on me). Fortunately, the 65lb dog we adopted was 8lbs overweight (so, now that he’s in proper trim, he’s “only” 57lbs).
My wife’s dog — the void to the right side of the photo — often wants lap-time, too, but is significantly less-insistent about it (which is good, because when you have 100+ of bullies arguing over who gets to actually be on the lap, it can get a bit fraught).

I’ve got a 57lb staffy. He’d definitely not get carried around just because he was lazy. :p
Yeah, I used to have a 80lb pittie. He thought he was a lapdog but thankfully didn’t want us to carry him around.

Aww, I love Gryff.
Here is the late Jake, he was a good boy.

Gonna guess that the picture didn’t make the jump from your Lemme-based instance to this SharKey-based instance. :(
My 80# lab will not only lay on me, but get up just to drop his full weight back down on me. Fuckin jerk.
