10 Ways Puppies and Toddlers are One in the Same

They have no shame. Toddlers and puppies will beg, beg you for whatever you’re eating, no matter if they just ate five minutes ago or five hours ago.

If it’s food — great! — toddlers and puppies will eat it.
If it’s not food but looks interesting nevertheless? Who’s picky? Not toddlers and puppies — they’ll eat that, too.

Puppies and toddlers aren't tainted with malicious things that would make them exude anything that doesn't smell like rainbows mixed with powdered sugar.
This will change, of course, when they become big kids (who don't brush their teeth) and fully grown dogs (who eat their own feces).

Puppy dog eyes aren’t limited to puppies. Toddlers have them, too.
That’s why it’s impossible to ever get mad at them.
Go ahead and try. We’ll wait.

It doesn’t matter if you went away for the weekend or to the other room for 19 seconds to fill up a glass of water:
When you return, you will be greeted like you’re John Lennon or Paul McCartney, circa 1964.

Toilet paper. Toilet paper rolls. Napkins. Shoes. Socks. T-shirts. Bags. Stuffed animals. Those really, really, really important papers that were sitting on your bed.
Toddlers and puppies alike enjoy making maximum mess, but especially with things that mean the absolute most to you.

Toddlers and puppies will pee and poop anywhere, anytime.
Rub their nose in it?
They’ll giggle (or wag their tails) that much harder.

No one wants to see a toddler cry, or a puppy whimper.
But when they do?
They’re even cuter than when they’re happy.
As if that’s even possible.

Toddlers and puppies snuggle like it’s their job.
And frankly, they deserve bonuses, because they’re both so damn good at it.

Other can and will love them, but toddlers and puppies will clearly and simply never love anyone the way they love you.
