We love our dogs so much, and we especially love it when they fall asleep in a funny position, or often in what looks like an uncomfortable or impractical space.
But, hey, if they feel safe and cozy, then it works for them.
It also helps if their beloved human parent is nearby.
In the case of this video from influencer @abbybaffoe, who is the proud mom of an adorable chocolate brown Longhaired Dachshund named Lady, some dogs prefer their human to be part of their nap.
Maybe a dog likes to nap in your lap, or if you’re lying down on your back, they may use your legs as a cushion.
However, Lady picked a very special spot on her mom’s body.
In the video, we see Baffoe lying on her stomach with her head up, and then she pans the camera toward her rear end, and lo and behold, there is Lady sound asleep on her mom’s butt.
It’s both cute and hilarious!
Baffoe wrote in the caption, “Interesting spot but one of her faves.”
The comments in the video were pretty entertaining as well.
One viewer wrote, “A Ween between the cheeks is always the way to go!”
Another wrote, “She even fits into the color aesthetic!”
This is quite true, as Baffoe was wearing chocolate brown leggings.

Are Dachshunds Needy Dogs?
According to many people and articles, yes, Dachshunds are considered rather clingy and are often called “Velcro dogs.”
Now, every pup is different, and not all Dachshunds are clingy; however, if they are, it’s likely because they were bred to be that way.
When Dachshunds were bred in Germany 300 years ago, they were mainly used to hunt badgers, and this required them to be close to their human handlers often.
That need for a close relationship to a human, and close can mean proximity in this case, is part of their genetics.
They need to have a close bond with a human to thrive, even if it means sleeping on their butt like Lady.
