9 Adorable “Awkward Moments” Every Couple With A Dog Will Relate To

ADVERTISEMENT

After visual artist Akiro Tea and her boyfriend Ben started petsitting a dog, their lives changed completely. Using their new experiences as inspiration, Akiro has perfectly documented the quirks in her comic series called “Awkward Moments.” Judging by the images, looking after the pup probably made the two of them desire one as well!

“Ben’s family has always had dogs, he has also worked on a dogsledding farm in Iceland,” Akiro Tea told Bored Panda. “I’ve never had a dog but I’ve started dog and catsitting last year and it’s a great thing to do if you like animals.”

The dog that these comics are dedicated to is Kioni, a Great Dane who is thought to be about 4 or 5 years old. “She is really loving and protective,” the artist added. “I really like how excited she gets whenever I come home. When you give her a hug she’ll place her paw on one shoulder and her head on the other and give you a squeeze, almost like she’s hugging back.”

If you scroll down, you’ll see how the temporary dog handlers were trying to keep the pooch away from the bed, how they went on walks, and other precious everyday moments. Enjoy!

“So this is my reality now, since we’ve been taking care of her”

“She isn’t ours, we’re petsitting her while her parents are busy having a newborn baby”

Such a goofball!

We had two danes, female was more 'proper' behaved than the male. The male on the other hand, what a clown. Loved people, especially kids. More people around the more goofball he got, he loved the attention. It was fascinating watching such a big dog (180lbs/81.6kg) play with small children, he had an unusual gentle nature even for a dane.

He forgot the dog "push-out" - where they move an inch at a time when your asleep with their weight on you - and you move an inch away cos they're heavy - eventually after a few hours -- you fall out of the bed!!

and you shout "who is it??"" very loudly and convincingly - so they will both run to the front door while you get comfortable :)
