Oh to be napped trapped by a bunch of puppies, if only that was the only issue we all had in our lives! At least we have the internet and can live vicariously through someone with that kind of issue! Like this foster mama who sat down for just a minute, but soon caught the puppy paralysis as one by one each of her six foster puppies climbed into her lap and proceeded to fall asleep. What is it about sleeping puppies that truly warms the heart? It could thaw the iciest heart in mere minutes. Heck, even the grinch had a dog! 

 

This lucky lady has fostered many dogs and this group of puppies is far from her first batch of cuties. However, it would appear that she can still be surprised during her temporary puppy privileges. Here we see her being forced to rest while her puppies sleep on her because, obviously, it is illegal to move once that happens. (The comment section makes sure to reiterate that law multiple times.) However, it seems she also got to witness firsthand a puppies' reflex of going straight into doggy paddle mode the second they feel water. They aren't swimming, they are just paddling in the air. First the napping now this?! Can it get any cuter?? We think not.
