corgi smashed onto couch that is not big enough for the both of us but heβs making it work with aggressive butt smooshing and cuteness, looking over his shoulder if to say, βthis is clearly not what I really want but itβs fine, also I brought my treat ball just in caseβ
he settled for snuggles

a black brindle and white cardigan corgi sitting on the floor next to a couch, holding a green hollow football shaped toy on mouth in per-throwing pose, laser intense eyes, moar treatos human
post toss, motion blur on toy which did not get anywhere near his intended target, heβs tracking the trajectory and is no doubt calculating his next shot
This guy is currently throwing his treat toy at me as if he didnβt *just* get his dinner *and* a chewy.
