A black Labrador Retriever lies on a wooden floor while a brown and white calf rests her head on his side. 11 / 25

The Labrador Stayed Perfectly Still While the Calf Used Him as a Pillow

AI imagelabradorcalfbelly nap

The Labrador lies flat on the floor, a dark, heavy-limbed shape with his chin on the boards and soulful brown eyes turned to the camera. Clover has settled across his belly with her head resting on his side and her eyes closed. Behind them, a sofa, a basket of toys, a stack of coats and a sunlit doorway fill the room. His expression is the picture of patience, as if he had been waiting years for someone to nap on him.

Labrador Retrievers are famous for their friendly, gentle nature and are among the most popular family dogs. They are often patient with younger animals and children, and they tend to love a job to do. They are also energetic and need plenty of daily exercise, so this calm moment on the floor is probably well earned. Labs love to eat, so keep an eye on their weight and talk to your vet about a healthy diet. A sturdy, good-natured dog who is happy to be a pillow is a wonderful thing to have around the house.

The calf is fast asleep, and the Lab is staying right where he is. He can see his food bowl from here, but he is not going anywhere. Some friendships are worth more than dinner. Somewhere a food bowl waits, and a ball sits in the corner, but nothing in the room matters as much as this nap.
