A dog’s favorite car ride activity has turned into an unexpectedly adorable form of art, and the internet cannot get enough of it. A viral video shows a dog repeatedly pressing his nose against the car window while riding, leaving behind foggy smudges and unmistakable “snoot prints” that make every trip more entertaining than the last.
Dog can’t stop doing this while riding in a car
The clip opens with the dog seated by the window and fully focused on the glass. Instead of sticking his head out or sitting back quietly, he leans forward and presses his nose directly against the window. As the car moves, he continues sniffing enthusiastically through a small gap in the glass, flattening his nose against the surface again and again. The dog does not appear bothered at all. In fact, he looks completely absorbed in the experience, watching the scenery blur past while adding to his artwork with every excited sniff.
The video was shared by @mangothegalgo, an Instagram account dedicated to Mango’s life after rescue. The page has built a loyal community of 21.1K followers across 358 posts. Mango’s bio reads, “Loving life with my baby sissy . Rescued in ES. Adopted in the US. #freethegalgo,” highlighting his journey from rescue to a loving home.
Viewers quickly related to the moment. One user wrote, “My greyhound does this too. But she also adds in very loud snorting noises as if she’s gasping for her last breath. Not sure what that’s about.” Another commented, “My car windows look exactly the same! It is so much fun hearing our boy sniffing loudly through that little gap.” A third added, “I love the snoot art on the window. Oh my god, this is so cute!
