British pop star Sam Smith is in Denver this week (his show’s tonight at 8 p.m., as a matter of fact) and he’s enjoying the beautiful terrain, lovely Rocky Mountain summer weather and of course, meandering the city. And guess what, Colorado? He loves it!

How do we know?

Because as the Oscar- and Grammy-winning crooner was meandering the neighborhoods enjoying the exploration, he took time out to cuddle a random stranger’s dog and post it to his Instagram account!

Smith, known for hits such as “Stay With Me,” “Too Good at Goodbyes,” and “The Writing’s on the Wall,” which was the theme song from the most recent James Bond installment, “Spectre,” clearly loves him some pupper snuggles. There were a few more animal pics on his Instagram account, including one where he’s holding a small koala bear and a fun shot of the singer posing between two beefy English bulldogs that was captioned, “In love.”

We totally get it, Sam!
