It’s no secret that dogs have a habit of mirroring their humans’ emotions and actions. Whether tilting their heads when you speak or following your gaze with curious eyes, dogs are remarkably observant companions. Their instinct to stay alert and imitate behavior is part of what makes them so endearing and sometimes unintentionally hilarious. A recent viral video captures this bond between two dogs and their owner, leaving viewers both laughing and touched.
Owner reveals what dog & puppy do when he pretends to see something outside in cute video
Brian Hanshaft, a proud dog dad to a Malamute and a Golden Retriever puppy, recently shared a playful video showing how in tune his dogs are with him. The clip begins with text on the screen that reads, “Pretending to see something outside.” Brian then walks toward the window and leans forward as if he has spotted something intriguing outdoors. Without hesitation, his Malamute quickly joins him, standing shoulder to shoulder with his owner to inspect whatever might be out there. The Golden Retriever puppy trots over moments later, eager not to miss the action.
As Brian pretends to peer outside, the little puppy scratches at the glass with his paws, trying to get a better look. His innocent determination makes it clear he has no idea what he’s supposed to be seeing, but he’s fully committed to helping his dad investigate. Meanwhile, the Malamute stands tall and serious, almost as if he’s acting as backup security for the household.
One user joked that “the little one was like, ‘Now that we’re looking outside, let’s go for a walk!’” Another wrote, “‘Hooman, what are you looking at? Let us also take a look,’” perfectly summing up how pets always feel the need to be part of whatever their owner is doing.
A few shared their funny experiences, with one viewer commenting, “I did this with my cats once and ended up slamming my face against the glass.” Others simply melted over the dogs’ innocence, with one person writing, “I love how pure dogs are. The best creatures ever.”
