People with long legs may sometimes find it more difficult to get comfortable on the sofa. But it turns out that finding the right position to relax can be a challenge for both humans and animals!

On the Twitter account WeRateDogs, Cleo is a real eye-catcher due to her striking appearance. But that's not all that makes this dog special! The pooch also seems not to know where to put her long legs when she sits down.

Cleo's solution: rest your head on the back of the sofa and elegantly stretch your paws away from you!
