Some dogs are perfectly happy to sit quietly and wait for attention.
Others make it very clear that waiting is not part of the plan.
One adorable Cocker Spaniel puppy has gone viral for the hilarious way he makes sure his human knows exactly when he wants something.
In the sweet clip, the little pup starts by repeatedly pawing at his person.
When that apparently doesn’t get the job done fast enough, he decides to step things up.
The puppy brings his mouth into the conversation and begins giving tiny, gentle nibbles as if he is personally negotiating for more attention.
It is hard to tell exactly what he wants, but one thing is obvious: he is not planning to give up anytime soon.
His determined little routine quickly won over viewers.

The comments filled with people laughing at his dramatic demands and admitting that the video made them miss the puppy stage.
Some viewers even started sharing photos of their own dogs, turning the comment section into an unofficial celebration of tiny paws, puppy faces and absolutely no sense of personal space.
Cocker Spaniels are already known for being affectionate and people-oriented, so this little guy’s clingy behavior probably comes as no surprise to anyone familiar with the breed.
Still, there is something especially funny about watching such a tiny puppy act like his request is extremely urgent.
First comes the paw.
Then comes the nibble.
And if his human still does not understand, he seems completely prepared to keep trying.
For anyone who has ever lived with a needy puppy, the moment is painfully relatable.
Sometimes they do not just want your attention.
They demand it.
