Sofía Vergara Posts Priceless Pic of Dog Bubbles Next to an Epic Portrait of the Pup’s Likeness

While we love Sofía Vergara's modeling throwbacks and fashion pics, we certainly never tire of seeing snaps of her dog, Bubbles, either. The Chihuahua/Pomeranian mix is often making comical expressions in Vergara's pictures and usually showing her fondness for Vergara's husband, Joe Manganiello, 46.

So, we were given a gift this weekend, when the 50-year-old Modern Family alum shared a priceless pic of Bubbles on Instagram. In the photo, the tiny pup is seen standing next to a portrait of her likeness...and she does not look pleased. In the caption, Vergara simply typed a series of white heart emojis.

While it's unclear where the impressive art came from, it clearly looks like it was supposed to be a portrait of Bubbles. Also, if you take a closer look, you can see that there are a few tattoos on the arms of the painted dog, which seem to be symbols that appeal to Bubbles's parents. On one side, you can see a heart that says “Mom” inside of it. There are also Pittsburgh Steelers logos, which Vergara has previously noted is her husband's favorite football team.

Followers showed their appreciation for the artwork in the comments, where people said, “Twins!” and “I like your new friend bubbles [laughing emoji].”

When Vergara was on Modern Family, one of the running bits on the series was that her character, Gloria, wanted a dog, but then when she and her husband, Jay, adopted a dog named Stella, the dog ended up being closer to Jay.

It turns out that this story has been paralleled in real life, and Vergara always jokes about it online. For instance, she made a post in October 2021, where she showed the difference in Bubbles's facial expressions when she was sitting in Vergara's lap versus Manganiello's. In the caption, the America's Got Talent judge wrote, “Fun yest playing Bubbles babysitter wile her dad worked.”

We needed this. Thank you, Sofía.
