Some dogs have a talent for dramatic flair, even when they face the smallest inconvenience. Such is the case with one Pit Bull in an Instagram video whose “obstacles” manage to bring his world to a standstill. Instagram user @dharmas_dogs shared the video on the social media platform, showing how the Pitt Bull takes melodrama to an art form, and how his sister steps up to help him.
‘Deaf’ Pit Bull jumps to help brother stuck between things in viral video
In the video, the endearing Pit Bull looks stuck when an “obstacle” stands before him. Whether it is boxes, step stools, garden fences, or laundry boxes, everything seems huge in his path. The video shows a series of clips, showing how the Pit Bull is genuinely concerned with every object in his way. Eventually, his sister barges in with patience and care, dragging her sibling through every obstacle.
The video opens with the dog sitting forlornly behind a cardboard box. “What happens when you’re an 80 lb pitbull who keeps getting stuck behind things,” asks the on-screen caption. It provides context for the Pit Bull’s inability to cross objects, sitting with a bowed head and a blank face. From a pink stool to a laundry basket, everything blocks the hallway. He approaches each object with a worried look on his face.
But right when the Pit Bull is about to give up, his sister comes to his rescue. She keeps a close watch, as the caption indicates: “They’re both deaf and their connection melts my heart. Recently, I’ve been noticing how closely she watches him when he gets ‘stuck’. She always stays near him when he does.”
The caption continues, “Apparently, she’s been formulating a plan,” demonstrating how she jumps into action, tugging on his leash to show him the way. “Come on, brother. You can do it,” reads the on-screen text, and the Pit Bull moves. His sibling meets his dramatic episodes with patience, and the Pit Bull can finally say, “Screw you, laundry basket,” while walking past it with his sister.
