12 mom dog expressions that show what parenting is really about
Dog moms have a lot of work to do feeding multiple (usually) mouths and corralling their broods until they’re old enough to stay out of trouble.
While we tend to personify dogs a lot so we can relate to them, it’s not hard to see some of the same emotions in all mom-faces, no matter what the species – be it pride, love, or exhaustion…
Check out these 12 sweet dog mommas and their adorable babies for some high-quality cuteness to brighten your day.
1. Proud momma
Looks like playing fetch will have to wait a while until mom cares for all 11(!) babies until they can fend for themselves.
But she looks so proud of her brood that nothing else really matters.

2. Showing them the world
It’s hard to believe that some people think Rottweilers are naturally aggressive when you see photos like this. It’s all about how you treat them.
This momma looks like she’s so happy to have her little litter (and like she’s gonna protect them with her life). Because that’s what moms do!
3. Family photo
This Malamute family looks perfectly pleased to pose for a photo and show off their young one.
And Junior here looks like the sweetest fluffball ever!

4. What have I done?
Snickers isn’t exactly sure that this is what she signed up for. We count 6 hungry little puppies.
Luckily, her owner updated everyone to say she is a fantastic and doting mom.
Sometimes you just have to get over that initial desire to run away.

5. The fluffiest family
Oh my, there’s a lot of poofy puppy going on in this house!
Never did we think being mooned 4 times over would be so cute.

6. Family resemblance
These Huskies are so stunning.
We love the little one’s “mask,” and we bet mom is extra protective of her little superhero.
7. Line up from cutest to cutest
We wonder if puppies take turns being closest to mom in this funny family.
That’s quite a line-up… we can only imagine what it’s like when they’re all awake!
8. Mother and child
What a sweet bond this only puppy has with its mom.
She looks so pleased and proud to have a little one of her own to dote on.
9. Family outing
This Neapolitan Mastiff mom is going to have to keep her eyes peeled if she wants to keep track of all those puppies.
But she also looks like a momma you don’t want to mess with.
10. Baby kisses
We’ve never seen a pit bull this color, but these two are so beautiful.
The owner reports that mom was a bit of a rebel before her pup was born, but has calmed down significantly.
11. Overseeing dinnertime
Whoa, that’s a lot of mouths to feed – good thing mom doesn’t have to do it anymore!
Giving them their food bowls is probably the only way to keep them still for a photo at this age.
12. Tired but happy
This Belgian Malinois mom looks a bit tired in the eyes, but like she wouldn’t trade her brood for anything.
In other words, she looks like all moms of babies.
Take a look at a first time mom! Puppies are so big and beautiful today counts as a week of them being born :) from r/BelgianMalinois
