Boxer Climbs Onto Mom's Car-and Refuses To Get Off
We all have places around the house that our dogs know they're not supposed to be in, but that usually doesn't stop them from trying. In a hilarious video Jessica Mathis shared on TikTok, her stubborn Boxer named Stevie climbed onto the roof of her car and made herself comfy, refusing to come down.
What follows is a full-blown battle of wills, with Jessica repeatedly demanding that Stevie get down while Stevie does the exact opposite. Jessica joked that Stevie's reaction is the definition of, "I do not care. Do not tell me what to do. I ain't gonna listen," and she's not wrong.

We laughed when Jessica said in the caption, "Raising teenage daughters is easier than this." As a mom of twin teenage girls, I can totally relate!

It will probably come as a surprise to exactly no one that this isn't the first time Jessica has found Stevie on top of the car. In fact, it seems to happen regularly. Jessica admits that she's "still the best gal, though."
