They say that dogs can heal a lot of things, especially your heart. And we have to admit we agree with that notion, especially when they are just lying there waiting for belly pats.

There is something so special, so healing, so connection about the belly pat. Perhaps it is the vulnerability being shown to you by an animal that would usually seek to protect and hide its soft bits. It is a show of trust, companionship and adoration unlike any other that a dog is capable of showing. And amongst us canine connoisseurs it is one of the most treasured treats of pupper pawrenthood.

So we figured we would bring you a concentrated dose of that doggo based delight with this list of belly rub begging puppers who have got nothing else to do all day other than wait for you to give them the belly pets that they so desperately want and deserve. As such, we recommend you put down whatever you were doing before and dedicate a good few moments to these marvelous mutts and their gorgeous bellies.

Well, if this does not say pet me like one of your french girls then we do not know what does. This doggo looks like she would happily receive belly rubs from any hooman who had the time to sit down and gently stroke her tender undercarriage. And jheez, if we had the time we would not hesitate to spend a good twenty minutes making her tail wag and appreciating the intimacy and connection of the moment. Alas, time is of the essence and there are so many more dogs to pet in this list that we must move on.

Some dogs, when they want belly rubs, will just lie there on their back, not moving a muscle, just waiting for the belly rubs to come to them. But then there are other dogs like this one who will literally turn themselves into a contortionist due to the excitement of incoming pets, showing the hooman who shall be providing said pets just how psyched they are to be receiving them. It is quite the awwdorable form of appreciation to show the person who would take time out of their day to pet you. Oh how fun it must be to be a dog awaiting belly pats.
