Luckily, his bro loves him anyway.

Meet Mossy, a 6-month-old puppy who has no idea just how big he’s gotten — much to the annoyance of his smaller, older brother, Doug. Mossy still loves to pile on top of his siblings, and sometimes his long limbs create funny optical illusions.
These days, anytime Mossy insists on draping his huge body over Doug for a cuddle session, wise old Doug has learned to find his zen.
“[Doug] couldn’t care less about drama or anything,” their mom, Penny Ramsey, told The Dodo. “He just ignores Mossy.”
From the start, Mossy trusted Doug. When Mossy got overwhelmed during his first night at Ramsey’s house and began crying in his crate, Doug knew just what to do. Intent on calming his younger brother, grumpy Doug let out one of his characteristically gruff barks, and Mossy instantly quieted.
“I was like, ‘Oh, thank you, Doug!’” Ramsey said.
When Mossy’s not busy cuddling Doug, he enjoys spending time with his other dog siblings, Lyra and Bertie.
Ramsey can’t imagine her life without her dogs, whose funny, unique personalities always make her day a bit brighter.
“Mossy is just happy-go-lucky, always smiling,” Ramsey said. “[Doug] just wants to sit on your lap all day.”

Rescuers Find Injured Dog On Highway — Then Meet Her Loyal Best Friend
“[She] wouldn’t leave her side” 🥹
By Ashley Ortiz
Earlier this week, a Facebook user named Connor Bailey posted an urgent plea on a local Facebook group for lost and found pets. He’d found a black dog lying injured on the side of a busy highway in St. Louis, Missouri — and who she had in tow was even more heartbreaking.
“[She] has a gray and white pitty friend wearing a collar with no tags,” Bailey wrote
