The Good Morning America star shared a picture that perfectly captured just how much her pups love her back, and that they are always by her side.

The television host took to Instagram to reveal a stunning glimpse of her beautiful home's foyer, but it was what was waiting for her in the middle of the stairs that caught her fans' eyes the most.

The image revealed Lara's grand staircase, with a lush runner down its steps and chic crown-molding on the walls attached to it. The most striking feature, however, was the star's adorable pet dog waiting for her, perfectly poised, at the stairs' break.

The news anchor shared the sweet snap to both her Instagram stories and feed, writing: "Two works of art," referring to the modern sculpture at the bottom of the staircase.

Some fans made it clear that they much preferred the canine work of art, debating in the comments writing things like: "Creepy sculpture, cute dog!!!" but also: "Fabulous sculpture and such a calm photo," as well as, "She's ready for TV…" of Riva.

Lara made waves in yet another picture of another one of her dogs, as the dog, rather than Lara, had just gotten their hair done. She captioned the sweet selfie with: "One of us just got groomed and is FEELIN' it."
