Name a better sleeping spot than your dad’s when he is not home; this tiny Golden Retriever puppy named Beckett cannot. Beckett, in an adorable video from @becketts.golden.life on Instagram, deals with dad being out of the house by taking his place in bed and getting comfortable. And honestly, with a comfy spot like that, who can blame him? So naturally, the three-and-a-half-month-old puppy appears more than happy to replace dad.
Puppy sleeps in dad’s spot in bed beside mom as he’s not home
The video starts with the little puppy sitting on the floor, ready to claim his dad’s sleeping spot, as the on-screen caption offers a tempting suggestion: “Dad’s not home, wanna sleep in his spot?” In the next shot, we have an answer. Beckett has already tucked into bed under the blanket, lying there like he has been waiting for this moment all day.
The video’s caption jokes, “Itz my spot now, Dad!” as the Golden Retriever looks completely at ease resting and settling in without a hint of guilt, because there is no way he would pass up such a golden opportunity.
But there is more to why the puppy would want to take his dad’s sleeping spot. Many of them love the places their people spend the most time because those spots carry a familiar scent. Besides, a bed feels warm, so for a puppy, dad’s side can feel like the best place in the house.
Viewers loved every second of this invasion. One person wrote, “Let that baby just sleep,” and another noted, “The wink is the cherry on top,” while a third viewer joked, “The best naps are when dad isn’t home.” And when you have your dad’s sleeping spot, why wouldn’t this adorable puppy want to claim it? He simply saw an open space and treated himself to it. So dad’s spot, at least for now, belongs to him.
