These extra clingy dogs, often called Velcro dogs, just have to be near their humans all the time to be happy. If you go to the bathroom, they are there. When you get up and walk, you may even trip over them. Known as the ultimate Velcro dog, this Hungarian breed is literally attached to their owner, and is happiest when right by your side. The Vizsla is your wingman for hiking, swimming and hunting, and will be your loyal cuddle buddy too. Labradors may be a bit big to be a lap dog, but you cannot tell them that because they’ll try to sit in your lap every chance they get. It's no wonder this pup is focused wholly on you- the workaholic of the dog world was bred to keep an eye on its most prized possession at all times. These high energy herders want nothing more than to please their people, so if you have a Border Collie in your life, be prepared to have a shadow wherever you go. The Maltese needs to be with you, all the time, and if you want a clingy dog that always keeps you smiling, this is a good choice. The Golden sticks to their people like glue, sweet, gentle and oh so loyal, this is a dog who wants to be doing whatever you are doing, wherever you are doing it. Many people think of German Shepherds as guard dogs, but the reason they are good at guarding is because they love their human so much, these dogs have to be with you all the time. A true Velcro dog, the Sheltie is an excitable pup who intensely loves their family, they can be noisy though, and have been known to nip at objects and children, as if herding them too. Italian Greyhounds want to be in a lap at all times, these timid pups are loving and playful, and live to please you, very dependent on their owners, they despise being left behind. Another breed meant to guard, this pup also loves you so much, he keeps an eye on you at all times to keep you safe, not particularly an outdoor dog, the Doberman wants to be inside with you, snuggling, playing and watching. What can we say, herders are automatic Velcro pets, Aussies are super energetic dogs that are bred to be ever watchful, and will cling like plastic wrap to their families, even ignoring other dogs to keep watch over you.
