The Geeky Gecko presents: clingy dog breeds that won’t take their paws off you!
Would you like to have a pup that follows you anywhere, sits on your lap when you sit down, and always stays by your side? That means you’d love to be the proud owner of a pooch that’s clingy. These clingy dog breeds are sometimes called Velcro pups, and they love to be near their favorite humans all the time to feel good and be happy.
If you don’t mind being followed by a fur ball that looks at you like you’re magic on Earth (and you are for them), you’ll get along with the clingy dog breeds we’ll discuss in today’s article.
Without further ado, let’s talk about the cutest and most loving pups that will follow you when you go to the bathroom and that will love you no matter what. They’ll be your besties in no time!

I own a German Shepherd who is 7 years old and is my constant loyal companion does not want to go with anybody else just wants to be with me at all costs and at all times I also just bought a sheltie who is almost 4 months old who nips at my four Papillons The German Shepherd has never harmed any of the other dogs how do I correct the sheltie from nipping at the Papillons feet? Should I use a shaker can with pennies a mesh muzzle spray bottle with water or anything else?
That works for several things .it worked for my cassie
What about a King Charles. They are the most loving doggies .
I’m sure others will comment about their Velcro pups, but for me and my bestie, it’s been Mini Schnauzers for over 40 years. I’ve never been alone, even when I was alone. They beat you to your chair, and you have to move them to sit down. They are wonderful companions. Some people say they are high maintenance (grooming), but that’s a small price to pay for unconditional love.
Love my pugs!
Have any of you even heard or seen a Portuguese Water Dog? They are renown as the most Velcro dogs. My Dad bred Vizslas ( in the 2970’s when no one had any idea of what they were). Yes, they follow you. But after Boxers( who was at my feet) Weinmaraners, poodles, German Short Hairs, Labs-nothing clings like my PWD. And he is as smart if not sneakier than our standard poodle.
I have own Shelties for the past 45 yrs and that nipping is just the herding instinct they have in them. Your Sheltie certainly doesn’t mean to be hurting your Papillions in any way but that it just doesn’t know that the nipping cannot be done on them. The methods you suggested, either one of them would be fine to use on this dog and I believe it will quickly learn that the nipping wll have to totally stop.
I have a full size golden doodle and Theo keeps me in line of sight constantly and follows me everywhere I go. He will come lay himself in my lap for 15-20 minutes so he can be with me and get rubs and hugs too. He sleeps on my bed and always lays right next to me. He is definitely a shadow that wants all the love he can get.
I cannot understand how you left Yorkshire Terriers off the list. If you own a Yorkie, whether sitting or standing, you are either holding a dog or having it walk all over you. They are an affectionate, needy breed.
