This dog is definitely the king of balancing! 

Nicknamed Harlso the Balancing Hound, this dachshund has a knack for balancing all sorts of objects on his head, from succulents to soccer balls, cups of coffee to slices of pizza. Harlso's owner, Paul Lavery of Belfast, Ireland, discovered the hidden talent after he placed a toy on the pup's head one day, watching as Harlso didn't falter. "For us, we didn't know he knew any tricks, we tried teaching him to sit, lie down, roll over and he wasn't interested," Lavery said, according to SWNS reporting. For those concerned with Harlso's well-being as he steadies new items on his noggin, Lavery assures he never uses anything "too heavy or too dangerous."

With over 110K followers, his Instagram page is one of the cutest things you will see today. 

You might recall from a few weeks ago, the story we covered of the pregnant two-year-old Dachshund named Sugar. Sugar had a gorgeous maternity shoot that was captured by the talented Laura Shockley.

Well, as one would hopefully expect with any pregnancy... the puppies have arrived! And they're so deliciously cute, we want to gobble up all those mini-sugar pups! 

And to celebrate the occasion, Laura Shockley once again photographed the new family and just a warning, there will be definite squeals -- out loud and in your heart. 

Prepare yourself for some serious cuteness!

Is there anything more darling than a maternity shoot? Sure there is! If your model just happens to be a loyal, pure of heart, good girl two-year-old Dachshund named Sugar! 

Sugar is expecting her first litter and who better to capture the moment than Washington-based photographer Laura Shockley? Laura Shockley specializes in maternity, as well as, newborn shoots. She made headlines last year due to her gasp-worthy shot of a newborn ecstatically outstretching his arms, as if thrilled to have finally arrived into this world.

Now, Shockley is sharing her newest photo-shoot via Facebook featuring a pregnant pup! "This little momma is going to grace us with some short legged puppers soon! I can not wait for the next milestone session for her, the grandmother (me) 'purchased' her the maternity/newborn package!," Laura wrote. 

Shockley told PopSugar that Sugar is, "getting close to the end of her pregnancy and we took her for a day filled with pup cups and peanut butter treats, [and] it ended with her maternity session. If people can feel special on their photo shoot days, so can Sugar!"

We are definitely on-board with that! 

Complete with images of Sugar rocking a flower crown and tulle, and surrounded by a field of flowers, here is Sugar's gorgeous and one-of-a-kind photo-shoot: 

He can balance almost anything on his adorable little head, but food seems to be his specialty.
