My dogs love almost all foods. Sure, they turn their noses up at lettuce and pass up any scraps of broccoli on the floor, but both my Doxie and my Pug mix scarf down almost anything edible once they see or smell it. While they aren't overly picky, they both have a special place in their hearts for cheeseburgers. Then again, who doesn't?

Teddy is a Pomeranian mix with a true love of cheese, so much so that he often debates his mom on having an entire selection as his main entrée for dinner. Despite the adorable back-and-forth between the two caught on video, many followers were distracted by the precious pooch's uncanny resemblance to a teddy bear.

In the TIkTok from @teddytheduke, the precious Pom mix stood in front of his mom and vocalized his undeniable need for cheese.

"The discussion continues: me and my dog having a disagreement about whether he can have a cheese platter for dinner," the onscreen text explained as Teddy seemed to give several reasons in support of his case.

While he made a convincing argument, Teddy's appearance is what caught most people's attention. Some followers lobbied for the canine cutie to get his dietary cravings met, while others pointed out his fluffy likeness to a stuffed animal. Some even thought he mirrored a popular Star Wars character.

"Pretty sure that's Paddington Bear without his clothes on," one noted.

"Pay the cheese tax immediately," another demanded.

"Your Ewok is very cute," a follower remarked.

"That's not a dog, that's a teddy bear. Also the cutest one I've ever seen," someone pointed out.

"He's made a solid argument," a fan posted.

Teddy's Cheese Wish Was Granted

A follow-up post revealed that Teddy was quite persuasive and provided with a full cheese platter for dinner. The Pom mix received several expertly-cut slices of cheese, along with an array of cucumbers and tomatoes.

The assortment was drizzled with a creamy dressing for added flavor. Apparently, Teddy conducted a full filibuster for the special food.

"After hours of negotiations, I had to give in and my dog finally got his cheese plate," the onscreen text read.

Teddy obviously has a knack for getting what he wants, especially when it comes to meals.
