Here's Archie Beador in His Most Archiesque Pose Yet
Shannon Beador is home from vacay but it doesn't seem like her welcome committee was ready and waiting...

Dogs are good for SO many things. Giving us an excuse not to save. Being the best binge-watching buddies. And, of course, doing all those little gestures that show they care.
But what happens when you get home from working all day — or from vacation like Shannon Beador — and your pup is less-than-ready for a PDA-filled welcome party? Well, you get Exhibit A(rchie).
You see we were rather impressed when Shannon recently confessed (in the video above) that The Real Housewives of Orange County pup is her exercise partner ... because we've never seen a doggo that's that sleepy in almost every pic. Of course she then added in "well, sometimes he'll just lay down when there's shade." Now *that's* the Archie that we know and love!
And, just because we can(not resist), here are eight more moments of Archie proving he is the cutest snoozer ever. We bet the Golden Retriever is having sweet dreams of his mama (and probably also some lemons in a bowl).
