Texas Dog Gives Everyone Her Saddest Look, But The Reason Behind It Is Not What People Expect

With a face that could melt a thousand hearts, Kiko knows exactly how to get what she wants. But her Texas family knows the hilarious reality behind her sorrowful expressions.

A Daddy’s Girl Through And Through

Some dogs just know how to work a room. For a sweet dog named Kiko, her superpower is written all over her face.

With just one look, she can convince almost anyone that she is the most heartbroken pup in the world.

But behind those soulful, sorrowful eyes is a dog who knows exactly what she wants—and exactly who her favorite person is.

The minute her dad is back from work, Kiko is right by his side. She is always ready for their daily cuddles.

She has all the love in the world for him, and she isn’t afraid to show it. She’ll even look over at her mom with a smug expression, as if to say, “You know who his favorite is.”

The Master Of Puppy Dog Eyes

The second funniest thing about Kiko is how incredibly expressive she is. Looking at her, you would swear she actually invented the puppy dog eyes.

She frequently wears a “woe is me” expression that could melt the coldest heart. But by now, her mom and dad know the truth.

They know that Kiko is just a drama queen. She will go up to people with the saddest eyes imaginable, all for a very specific goal: getting treats.

The Great “Second Dinner” Tragedy

Kiko’s dramatic flair often leads to hilarious moments in the house. In one funny exchange, her mom joked about Kiko’s internal monologue.

Translating Kiko’s sad face, her mom joked that Kiko was acting like she was just told she was unloved and up for adoption.

But the reality was much less tragic. “That is not what I said,” her mom laughed. “I said you can’t have second dinner.”

Love At First Sight

The reality is that Kiko is a really happy girl. But everyone always falls for those eyes, leaving her parents to wonder where she learned the trick.

When mom and dad first met Kiko, she was just a sweet little puppy. Believe it or not, she came already programmed with these hilarious expressions.

Those big, sad eyes were actually one of the main reasons Kiko had to come home with them. They simply couldn’t resist her face.

The Hardest Goodbye

Pretty quickly after she was adopted, it became clear who Kiko had chosen as her absolute favorite. Her bond with her dad was undeniable.

While she uses her sad eyes to get extra snacks, there is one time when her sorrowful expression isn’t an act.

When dad has to leave the house, Kiko is genuinely heartbroken. She just sits quietly and waits for her favorite person to return.

A Joyful Reunion

The waiting is hard, but the payoff is always worth it. The moment her dad walks back through the door, Kiko transforms.

She instantly goes back to being a bright, happy, and energetic girl. She is so thrilled to have her human back where he belongs.

Sometimes, she might even vocalize and complain to him about just how tough it was to wait for him all day.

The Third Wheel’s Special Bond

Even though mom often jokes that she is the “third wheel” in this incredible love story, Kiko has a special bond with her, too.

Mom is Kiko’s biggest fan, and as a true diva, Kiko knows she has to give her fans what they want.

If Kiko could talk, her family knows exactly what she would say. She’d probably announce, “Don’t touch my human. Also, can I have another snack?”
