Wouldn't you love to have an adorable puppy be the passenger next to you on a long flight? Well, one lucky man experienced just that on a flight from London to Ibiza.
Huxley, a friendly Golden Retriever puppy, and his mom Ursula Daphne Aitchison, were just getting settled in for Huxley's first ever plane ride, when the little puppy got a little bored.

Aitchison told The Dodo that initially, Huxley was sitting next to her, after a while, he decided to abandon his mom and sit next to the man in front of them instead.
The man was more than happy to welcome his new furry friend.
Huxley seemed totally happy with his seating and his new seatmate and bff and was completely ignoring his mom – until he noticed his mom opened up a snack!
Huxley stuck his head between the seats to try and reach mom's snack but couldn’t quite make it.

Huxley refused to give up. He smushed his face between the seats, showing his teeth and eventually his tongue as he tried to get the snack.

Even though he couldn’t reach his mom’s snack, Huxley continued to entertain his mom and the rest of the flight passengers with his silly faces until he got bored of that too, and went back to making friends with everyone around him.
“He spent 30 minutes in that seat; the man next to him said he was a very good passenger and the man across the aisle was taking selfies with him,” Aitchison said.
“Huxley kept giving him his paw to hold. He was making lots of people laugh and the man next to me asked to take his photo to send to his daughter.”
Huxley spent most of the flight entertaining his fellow passengers, and with such a cute puppy to look at and play with, there’s no doubt the flight went by in a flash.

10 Of The “Most Loyal” Dog Breeds On The Planet
Giving love and support to humans is something that some dogs do better than others.
While many dogs love everyone they meet and are willing to take treats or belly rubs from anyone, the pups we found are just the opposite.
These 10 dogs are some of the most loyal breeds on the planet. They are rock steady in their loyalty to their owner no matter what.
1) Akita
When the American Kennel Club (AKC) lists loyalty to describe the temperament of the Akita, you know they mean business. The beautiful double-coated working dog of Japanese ancestry is considered hardwired in protecting those she loves. They should be socialized with other dogs and people from the time they are puppies. Their silly, fun, but dignified personalities round out the loyal Akita.

3) Skye Terrier
Known as the “small dog with the big ears,” this adorable breed hails from the Scottish Isle of Skye, hence the name. Whether you live in the city or the country, this small dog with a big personality is steadfast in snuggling, playtime, and remaining loyal to his owners.

4) Beagle
This merry hound is friendly, curious and incredibly loyal. While he doesn’t mind the occasional couch potato time, this spunky pooch is energetic and merry. A fun fact about this hound: the breed standard is for 13 inches and under and another in the 13-15 inch category. No matter how you size him, these adorable dogs just want to cling to you.

5) Shar-Pei
This wrinkly non-sporting breed is standoffish to strangers but very loyal to his owner. His ancient Chinese roots are part of the charm of the Shar-Pei. Regal, strong, and smart, if you want a BFF for life, this loose-skinned pooch may be the right choice for you.
