I used to be friends with a person who had some kind of hound dog. He was very envious of physical affection; if he saw any two people cuddling, he would immediately jump up and muscle his way into the middle. (I only saw him do it once or twice but the owner assured me it was the norm for him.)
My dog is a bit like that. If he sees my wife and I getting a bit too touchy, he will start jealously growling about why we are petting each other and not him. We clearly declared him the “best boy”, so he should be getting all the pets.

Growling is a bit concerning, but otherwise fair enough!
