Many dog owners know that their furry friends just love to take a spin around town in the car. Dog owner Adam Douglas' dog likes to take a ride as well, but Adam noticed that his canine companion wanted to bond with him in an unexpected way whenever they took a trip in his car together.

Adam finally found a way to capture his dog's unusual demand by positioning his phone at just the right angle in his hands-free phone holder to create a recording and catch his cocker spaniel Tommy in the act. Once the video begins to play, viewers see an adorable Tommy seated up front in the passenger seat right next to his owner Adam. Suddenly, Tommy begins to reach for Adam's hand and tap it periodically while Adam initially refuses his request and tells him no.

Undeterred, Tommy turns on his cocker spaniel charm and persists in nuzzling close to Adam and tapping on his hand. Finally, Adam grasps Tommy's paw in his hand and holds it tight. Satisfied to finally get what he wants, Tommy seems to settle in for the ride.

To prove that this isn't just a fluke, Adam lets go of Tommy's paw, resulting in the dog tapping on his arm to let him know that hand-holding will be required for the duration of the trip. Adam closes the video by turning the camera just enough to capture his amused yet perplexed expression.

Tommy the cocker spaniel's adorable insistence that his human Adam hold his hand whenever they take a drive is a most unusual and endearing request. Send this story to your favorite dog owner so they can be reminded of all the joy four-legged friends add to our lives.
