Miffed dog just can’t believe his family got a new puppy without asking first
Dogs don’t always take it well when you bring home a new family member.
No one likes to have their life and routine disrupted – and they especially don’t want their parents’ attention divided.
That’s why it’s only fair that you try to prepare your dog for a big change.
Unfortunately, poor Kevin never got a heads up when his humans brought home a surprise sibling named Lyle. And he was anything but pleased to see yet one more mouth to feed in the house.

The home in question belongs to Carleigh Johnson Stroup and her husband. And despite already having one seriously cuddly dog, they wanted another.
“Kevin is so sweet and loving,” Stroup told The Dodo. “We can never lay down without him immediately laying down with one of us.”
No wonder Kevin doesn’t understand why they need another dog.

It must feel like a betrayal to put all of your energy into cuddling and being cute all day only to have the people you love come home with another brother.
And it appears Kevin is not the forgiving type.
He’s been shooting mom and day the stink eye ever since they came home with Lyle.

Now, the rest of us can understand why someone would want to bring home Lyle – after all, just look at this adorable Labradoodle puppy!

That’s some fierce competition in the adorableness department.
On top of the cuteness, Kevin seems to know his routine is going to be disrupted thanks to Lyle – and we all know that animals can get all sorts of anxious with unexpected changes.
Upon meeting Lyle for the first time, Kevin looks at his parents with the utmost sense of betrayal.
Meanwhile, Lyle – being the little interloper he is – playfully picks at his new roomie.
The short clip of their first encounter (which you can view below) has gone viral partly because Kevin’s reaction is so priceless.
His face just screams: ARE YOU GUYS SERIOUS WITH THIS THING?
Meanwhile, Lyle remains clueless.
While it certainly wasn’t love at first sight, Kevin has largely resigned himself to his new reality – mostly because he has no choice.
Lyle is smitten with his new big brother.
“He only wants to go where Kevin goes,” Stroup said. “He’s just absolutely obsessed with him.”

Luckily, Kevin has at long last accepted that Lyle isn’t going anywhere and that he’d better make the most of it.
“Even after all of Lyle’s attempts at ruining Kevin’s peace and quiet, they’ve become inseparable,” Stroup told The Dodo. “Kevin appreciates having a brother to hang out with when we are gone.”
