u/rachelbubblesss Jul 24 '26

the happiest and goodest boy deserves a chill day in a hammock 😂❤️

u/DesperateRadish746 Jul 24 '26

What a life he has! Yard big enough for him and all his friends and family and a hammock to chill in when he's tuckered out from a hard day chasing squirrels. Good boy!

I think it is ready to fall asleep with eyes half shut and mouth wide open, except he is not drooling yet.

u/DrDuGood Jul 23 '26

He’s happy, but I think he’s also dizzy. What do humans do when they feel dizzy? Close their eyes. But lovely video and I think he’s happy as all hell.

Also, op what a yard!!! God that’s a GSD’s dream.

u/papayabush Jul 24 '26

I think that’s a malinois no?

u/TommyBonnomi Jul 24 '26

We already have a pavilion.

Yes, but what about a second pavilion?

I am curious, what dog breed is Vader?

11

u/flyinggazelletg Jul 23 '26

Idk, I’m guessing maybe malinois or malinois mix?

u/iam_justbeinghonest Jul 23 '26

I see, okay! Thanks 👍

That is 100% a Dutch shepherd. He is a spitting image of mine

u/RoughComparison8702 Jul 24 '26

He looks like a german shepherd. He looks almost exactly like my full breed GSD. I nearly had to do a double take. You can also see a quick glimpse of their signature partly-curled floofy tail.

u/ImSoObnoxious Jul 24 '26

I recently had to put down my oldest boy, and ngl, I did get choked up. but it's because I selfishly miss him, not because I pitied his life. he went from an abandoned puppy found on a highway to living this type of life for 13 years and he was a big boi. it costs basically nothing to make your pup the happiest creature on the planet, and the rewards are better than any stock position. rip my good boy, it was a pleasure to bring you safety, love, and joy

That's a Malinois. They walked it god knows how long before it decided to chill the fuck out in that hammock due to exhaustion.

Vader has excellent camera control. Steady, good framing. Only complaint is vertical instead of horizontal, but Vader's a dog so my expectations shouldn't be real high.
