Sleeping on the job is not for everyone but everyone would love to do it if they could. In fact in certain parts of Asia it is actually culturally accepted that after a quick lunch you lie down at your desk for a delightful little nap. But seeing as in most other places in the world that is not the case we figured you might appreciate the opportunity to nap vicariously through these cute canines who have been captured napping in some of the silliest and sweetest pawsitions.

We are talking about the kind of sweet sleeps that just happen without you meaning them to. The kind of sleep that creeps up on you, taps you on the shoulder and makes you instantly close your eyes as you attempt to look behind you to see what is going on. The kind of naps that you wake up from feeling like a fairy has dusted you with its magic. So, without any further delay we invite you to grab your preferred caffeinated beverage in case these pics start putting you to sleep and get yourself to scrolling through this sweet list of napping puppers.

  • They say that the most sacred and sweetest of sleeps are the ones where you just let everything go. No positions, no side sleeping, no tension, simply a relaxed blob of a body flopped down upon any kind of surface, the more uncomfortable the better. And that is very much the reality in which we find this pupper to be. Just living its best life smushed into the floor.

  • We have to wonder if this yoga sleep pose is actually comfortable. Because if it is there is a lot to be said for trying to find a yoga pose to fall asleep in such that you can claim you were doing some gentle stretching that would help you get back to work. Because the last thing you want when trying to take a nap in the office is being caught red handed and bleary eyed by your superior.
