David Beckham's Dog Is the Most Adorable Workout Distraction – Parade Pets
David Beckham made a name for himself as a professional soccer player for Manchester United, Real Madrid, and the LA Galaxy. Now, he’s the proud owner of MLS franchise Inter Miami CF, and the proud dad to his four kids with wife Victoria Beckham.
The 50-year-old athlete is also a dad to a team of dogs whom he often features on his social media accounts. In a recently shared workout video, Beckham’s morning routine is adorably interrupted by one of his family’s Cocker Spaniels. The diversion is so sweet, it’s a marvel the British footballer can keep his mind on his workout.
Beckham’s latest social media video was shot mid-workout, as he tries to get through his morning stretch. His “life mate” has other plans, and she playfully interrupts Beckham’s stretch and tries to get him to play. The attentive former soccer star gives his sweet Spaniel the attention she begs for while keeping his focus as he pushes through his workout. It’s a charming moment that shows Beckham’s love for his pup is as deep as his love of fitness.
David and Victoria Beckham aren’t the only fans of Cocker Spaniels. Known for their affectionate, friendly, and gentle nature, many dog lovers wisely choose the loving breed as part of their extended family.
The highly social dogs are eager to please and can form strong bonds with family members, including children. But because Cocker Spaniels are socially driven, they can suffer from separation anxiety when not in the company of their humans. So if you’re considering adding a Cocker Spaniel to your brood, know that you may not get through your morning workout uninterrupted—just like David Beckham.
