Seeing a muscular Staffy curl up into a total pile of mush is basically the best way to end the week. Petra from @izy_the_staffy, in this throwback video, simply goes on to show that motherhood looks good on almost everyone. This dog spent the early days with her newborn babies, refusing to let them out of her sight. Another post on the feed tells us that she is part of a four-generation Staffy wolfpack living in the UK. She recently went viral for how tightly she holds her tiny pups. Her owner describes her as the ultimate mum, which rings true.
Mama Dog closely snuggles her little newborn babies, refusing to let go
As of the time of writing, over 326.7k viewers have already liked the video of the sweet dog cuddling her newborn babies, making it a viral hit. When the footage starts, we see Petra holding one of her pups incredibly close between her front paws. She rests her chin right on top of the tiny baby while looking at the camera. The dog actually looks like she is soaking in every bit of that newborn warmth.
When the camera gets closer, she just shuts her eyes for a second. However, when her little puppy starts to wiggle, Petra reacts with a protective instinct. She adjusts her paws so the puppy is almost entirely hidden under her chin. It really looks like the mom Staffy wants to keep him all to herself for a while.
The camera pans back to show another pup nursing quietly while Petra stays completely relaxed through all of it. One viewer mentioned that they have seen this clip 65 times and still weep every single time. It is a wonderful sight to see such a beautiful momma and her kids.
Since this is a throwback video, and one of her pups, Smudge, is now grown, their human mentions how sweetly Petra transitioned from being a devoted mum to being best friends with her daughter. Smudgekins, or “Smudgeroo,” is now a little lady who even stars in the family’s books. One commenter noted that Petra’s love should be the standard for everyone. As her owner says, it is important to make the most of every precious moment.
