Life with dogs is full of surprises — sometimes cuddly, sometimes comical. Steve, the charming mini Australian Shepherd, is no exception. His mom, Meghan, has gained a massive online following by showcasing their adventures together, filled with affection, laughter, and personality. But one road trip to Colorado brought an unexpected moment that had Meghan panicking — and later laughing uncontrollably.
Steve’s fans know him as a sprightly pup always ready for adventure. But during one of their earliest long car rides, Meghan was met with a situation that stopped her heart for a moment before turning into an unforgettable memory.
A Sticky Situation
Four years ago, Meghan and Steve hit the road to Colorado. Steve, a tiny puppy at the time, wasn’t yet big enough for a proper dog harness. As a creative solution, Meghan outfitted him with a life jacket equipped with extra-strong Velcro. The idea worked well — until it didn’t.
During the trip, Meghan noticed something was off. Steve wasn’t behaving like his usual bouncy self. Instead, he was lying completely flat on the car floor, unmoving. Concern quickly swept over her. Was he okay?
Then, realization dawned.
As Meghan explained in her TikTok video, “I had to use this life jacket for Steve because he was too small to fit in his harness. It’s got this really strong Velcro. As I was driving back to Colorado, he was on the floor of the car and didn’t move… for hours.”
It turns out Steve hadn’t frozen in fear or become ill. He had simply Velcroed himself to the carpet of the car and couldn’t move! This perfectly innocent mistake turned into a hilarious core memory. Meghan, relieved and amused, shared the video online — and Steve’s sticky situation instantly went viral.
Steve’s Velcro Moment Highlights:

Life’s a Joyride for Steve
Since that unforgettable incident, Steve’s life has only gotten richer — more adventures, more laughs, and more viral moments. Meghan continues to document their lives together, from urban walks and snowy hikes to lazy days at home. Steve’s personality shines through in every video.
This mini Aussie isn’t just cute — he’s brimming with charm, humor, and boundless curiosity. Whether he’s getting puppuccinos, high-fiving strangers, or taking charge of the backseat during road trips, Steve has become more than just a dog — he’s a social media icon with a heart-melting smile.
But even with all the attention, one thing remains clear: Steve’s most treasured companion is Meghan. Their bond makes every video special and every story — even ones starring Velcro mishaps — something worth remembering.
