Having a little dog definitely comes with some perks: they’re more portable, they make smaller messes, and they pretty much look like a puppy their whole lives.

But as this hilarious Frenchie can tell you, there are some serious disadvantages for those living the life of a petite pup. Her name is Alice, and when she tries to join her humans on the sofa, she just can’t quiiiiite make it. Her reaction is priceless.

“Up! Up! Let me UP!”

Hopefully they took pity on her after they put the camera away and gave the cutie a boost up. She obviously deserves some cuddles after that emotional ordeal.
