At the age of 5, Herbert is pretty much a full-grown, adult dog. But in his heart and mind, he will always be a baby, no matter how big he has become.

Herbert is a gentle giant. He is so mellow and loving. He loves to cuddle with his family so much that sometimes, he forgets about his size. HE thinks he’s a lapdog that weighs only about 5 pounds, said his mom, Marybeth Parker.

Despite his ginormous size, Herbert is still the gentlest pup his family could ever ask for. He remains tender and careful anytime he wants some hugs.

Marybeth’s husband, Mitch Parker, has a recliner where he usually sits anytime he wanted to take a break. When Herbert sees him, he would climb onto him and sit on his lap for some pets. Usually, it works out perfectly fine. Most recently, however, Herbert caused a little accident.

Instead of merely hopping onto Mitch’s lap like he always does, Herbert decided he wanted to hug him. So he jumped up and put both of his front paws on his dad. And his new move didn’t end up the way it always did.

Because of his weight, Herbert accidentally pushed the recliner back, while his daw was on it. The next thing they knew, Mitch was on his back, and Herbert was on top of him.

Despite what happened, Herbert didn’t seem to know what he has done. He stayed on top of his dad, wagging his tail. All he was concerned about was to hug his dad and give him some love.

Mitch, meanwhile, was caught off guard. Herbert’s sudden move fazed him. Nevertheless, he is always happy to accept Herbert’s love and cuddles.

Herbert is a sweet boy. He may not always realize that he isn’t a lap dog, but he will always have lots of love for his family, especially Dad.
