As any proud dog parent knows, our pups love a good nap. Whether it’s after a long walk, a play session, or just because the bed is too cozy to resist, snoozing is easily one of their favorite pastimes.
And honestly, who can blame them? Many of us enjoy those peaceful cuddle sessions just as much as they do.
Some dogs are so attached to their humans that they want to stay close all the time, even during sleep. That bond can make for some hilarious situations, as one Florida owner recently discovered with his pup, Fendi.
The Sleepy Trickster
Fendi had settled herself comfortably on her owner’s bed. When he decided it was time for her to move to her own spot, he gently tried to wake her.
Something felt strange. She wasn’t moving at all.
Then he realized the truth. Fendi wasn’t asleep at all. She was pretending.
Keeping her eyes tightly shut, she faked deep sleep in a clever attempt to avoid being moved. Her act was so convincing that it completely fooled her owner at first.
Even after he called her a “faker” and told her he knew she was awake, Fendi stayed committed to her performance.
She wasn’t about to give up her comfy spot so easily.
Amused by her stubbornness, her human recorded the entire scene and posted it on TikTok.
Going Viral For All The Right Reasons
It didn’t take long before the video went viral. Viewers flooded the comments, laughing at Fendi’s dedication to her role and sharing similar stories of their own.
“That’s clearly someone who just worked a double shift! Let her sleep!” one user joked.
Another added: “Me pretending to be asleep in the car so my dad would carry me upstairs to bed.”
Others pointed out that Fendi looked like she was trying not to laugh, just like a little kid faking sleep to get away with something.
Her face definitely gave her away, but she didn’t seem to care one bit. Fendi knew exactly what she was doing, and she was not sorry at all.
In the end, her silly little trick left her owner laughing instead of frustrated. It also brought joy to thousands of people who watched the video online.
Fendi proved once again that our dogs aren’t just sweet companions — they’re also clever, playful, and full of surprises.
