Every pet owner recognizes that specific soundtrack signaling the end of a long day. Olli is the fluffy Shih Tzu and Maltese mix behind the account @olli.the.doggi. And his transition to sleep involves a predictable three-act performance. This tiny “pupfluencer” has already gathered a massive following on TikTok. However, a recent Instagram video shows him settling into his favorite bed in a single, unedited take. His owner describes the scene as “knowing the drill.” This includes a series of lip smacks, a massive stretch, and a final, heavy sigh of total contentment.
Dog makes the most adorable sounds when it’s time to go to bed
The routine starts with what Olli’s human affectionately calls “mlems.” Olli lies on his side and smacks his lips with rhythmic intensity. The camera zooms in to capture every tiny mouth movement. A green checkmark appears on the screen to confirm that the first step is finished. To a human, this sound might be annoying. For a pup, it is the ultimate sign of relaxation. One viewer noted that while this noise would “drive them n*ts” if a person did it, it is “100% approved” for pets.
Then comes the next step, a full-body stretch. Olli extends every limb to its maximum capacity. He looks twice as long as usual before curling back into a ball. His owner marks this as phase two of the bedtime protocol. Then he continues to smack his lips a few more times. It’s obvious he wants to be as cozy as possible.
It is a specialized form of canine ASMR that his 19,000 followers find absolutely addictive to watch in this video. The final part of the footage is the heavy, dramatic sigh that every pet parent knows well. It is a full-body exhale. This signifies he is officially done for the day.
Many people in the comments pointed out that Olli feels safe with his humans, one even called it “250% safe.” Another viewer called the sounds “sweet music” to their ears. Once Olli goes still, you just know the day is finally over. There really isn’t anything like the sound of a happy pup clicking into sleep mode.
