A cat would land perfectly there.

well at least he landed in perfect belly rub position

Sometimes when (parallel) parking you just have to “wedge” yourself in.

As Ratkin said, a cat could show him how it’s done. And after the cat sticks the landing, he would look up at the dog and say " Watch and learn, little boy" (just like Batgirl said to Robin).

No pets on the furniture!

Not Ninja Doggie.

A prelude to the dog pushing the people off the couch and claiming it.

Yeah, but now he’s perfect Insta content. “Dog lying on back” = cuteness.

Parallel Barking is easier!

When’s the last time you had to parallel park?

He really stuck the landing.

Yeah, perpendicular parking (perpendicular to the humans) is much more fun. Thanks for a good laugh.

On my driving exam for my first license, the only thing I flunked was parallel parking. It wasn’t a big need in our town. The instructor made me promise to practice (of course I did) and passed me anyway.

Dogs must claim the center section. My dog, who is small, claims the center and the right. I am allowed the left.

I still want one of those Hummer’s that can crab-walk into a parallel parking spot! :)

What about parallel barking?
