When a rescue dog finds their forever home, they often form an unbreakable bond with their new family. This is especially true for pups who have experienced hard times. Their unfortunate past lives can cause some to never want their humans to leave their sight again. (See video below)

A popular term for these ultra-clingy pets is a Velcro dog. This tiny Maltese living in Southern California takes that term to a new level. Watch what he did to be by Mom’s side!

Climbing a Fence to Get to Mom

Thank goodness Yodi’s mom, Lorna, was watching when this little rascal decided he needed to join her while chatting with a neighbor on the street. Even though he may have been behind a fence, secured with a few feet high of additional wire to prevent an escape, this tiny Houdini worked his way around it. Oh goodness! Intelligent dogs can be so exhausting. After expertly assessing the situation, he quickly recognized what he needed to do. Using the wire as steps, he climbs right up, and then, in just seconds, he squeezes through the bars and makes a B-line to Mom. Thankfully, his puppy sibling, relaxing in the background, didn’t even attempt to move as its sibling made his mission-impossible-style escape.

Living With a Velcro Dog

This cutie also tries to sneak out and join the family in the car when they leave, not wanting to miss out on the action. Perhaps it’s how dogs show us they know they are with good people and have a wonderful life.

Although Yodi’s mom has rescued other breeds of dogs besides Maltese, she reports that Maltese stand alone with their need for closeness. The only downside to a Velcro dog is that they never ever leave you alone. However, it’s a small price to pay to have a creature who loves us so unconditionally.
