Very good dog keeps interrupting his human's shower for a very good reason

Good boy.

Imagine stepping into your tub for a nice, hot shower, and then looking down to see this little face staring up at you.

It sounds a little annoying and a lot cute, but once you understand why he's doing it, it turns out to be the sweetest thing ever: Clark, the mini Goldendoodle, is just trying to help his owners through the harrowing ordeal that is the bath.

And no, this isn't just Clark trying to play fetch with a captive audience.

And yes, she does mean every time.

It may seem like bizarre behavior to us humans, but by dog logic, this is an incredibly kind and caring gesture. All those cliches about our pets taking care of us as much as we take care of them are true!

When Clark's not comforting his owners, he likes to spend his time doing other dog stuff – much of which you can see documented on his Instagram page.

Occasionally, he'll even trot out that now-famous shower toy for himself.

That's a good boy, Clark.
