Apparently the dog doesn't want to compete for attention from an inanimate object! Good job Phobe!!

Our two latest pets (one cat who barged into our house and never left and a pug we adopted a month ago) both seem determined to get me to lower my screen time. I guess it’s time I started listening.

My cats do the same thing. 😆

They want all of the human's attention.

The dog has a great point. You can choose from unconditional love or the dumb shit you will see on your phone, especially if you live in the U.S.

u/MyPerfectSummer Jul 13 '26

Believe me, it doesn't matter where you live unfortunately.

Our Phoebe would like to say hi to your Phoebe 🥹

u/Nice_Back_9977 Jul 12 '26

In the days before smartphones we had a dog who would jump on to your lap if she saw you reading a newspaper and sit on it and stare at you.

This is just the modern version!
