9 Things Only Dog Moms Know About Their Fur Baby With Just One Look

Whether it's with a sound or a look (or an accident), you just know when your pup needs to go potty. Their pee pattern tends to follow a schedule, so it'll get pretty predictable. Still, when your fur baby tends to wander toward the door or sniff around like they're on a mission, you better take some precautions and let your doggo outside.

Those puppy dog eyes can't hide the truth, but they sure can sugarcoat it. Whatever trouble your pooch got into seems to disappear when you see that guilty little face. Still, every pup needs to learn their manners, no matter how cute they may be.

Let's be real, it's not going to work out if your dog doesn't approve of the guy you're dating. You don't care how cute or funny this new dude might be— if your furry companion says no, it's a no. Whether it's through nonstop barking or your pup's refusal to get anywhere near the guy you bring home, you should definitely be taking notes.

When your dog looks a little more like a cat ready to pounce, it's probably time to grab a toy and start running. Once you're tuned in to your pup's body language, you'll be able to tell what's coming before your baby starts sprinting up and down the hallways. You'll have just a little bit of a warning so you can brace yourself for playtime.

When you're having a nice snuggle session, not much can get in the way of the sweetness of puppy love... except maybe when they start wiggling and kicking like you're hugging them too tight. Sometimes, dogs just need to be comfy at any cost, even if that means wriggling right out of your arms. If you're lucky, you'll get that "let me go right now" look from your pup before the struggle begins.

Begging becomes seriously dangerous once your pooch learns how to use their cuteness to get what they want. They'll snuggle up all close, lay their head on your shoulder, and give you that look. That pleading, knowing look. It's pure torture.

When you're a pup parent, you never eat alone. Even if your fur baby just ate, or if you're eating something they can't have, you can bet they'll be up in your face wanting a bite. Even opening a bag of chips is dangerous territory; you'll know you're in for it when the head tilting begins.

You'll know when your pup is sleepy, but they'll be sure to let you know when they want to go to bed. They'll flop down like they can't stand any longer, look over at you longingly, and maybe even let out an exhausted sigh. Sure, they could go to bed themselves, but they want you to come, too.

Despite all of the mischief and drama of owning a pet, there will always be a bond of love between you and your fur baby. All the little things you do for your pooch do not go unnoticed, I promise. Your best fur friend knows just how much you love them, and they love you, too.
