The glass door is closed, but Minnie is already vibrating. That’s the only way to describe the opening seconds of this video from @minniethehousehippo and the dog’s tail wiggles. She is standing at the glass doors and watching for any sign of movement inside the house.
Minnie is a rescue American Bully from @minniethehousehippo. And she has this specific way of showing she is ready for her favorite person. This video shows the precise moment the dog sees her dad, and her tail wiggle just explodes. It’s the kind of welcome that makes a long day at the office totally worth it.
The dog can barely contain her excitement when Dad comes home
So here’s how it unfolds. Minnie locks eyes through the glass doors. And then the wagging gets so fast her whole body starts to move. She starts hopping up and down. Right on the spot. It is like she has too much energy inside her. She even paws at the door once because she really wants it to open. She is just a happy pile of mush right now, and you can tell she is struggling to contain the excitement.
Then a reflection appears in the glass. It’s Dad. He finally slides the door open to end her misery (ecstasy?). Minnie does a few more happy hops. And Dad leans down for some head scritches. He kneels right next to her. The dog does a full-body shake in the video to handle that tail wiggle energy. It’s her way of resetting.
And it’s amazing to see her moving so well. She recently had a big TPLO surgery on her knee. Seeing her hop around like this is a massive relief for her family. “Nothing beats the post-work booty wiggle welcoming dad home from the office,” her mom wrote in the caption.
People in the comments are totally losing it. Over 700 people liked the post at the time of writing. One fan called her the cutest little wiggle butt. Another loved seeing her up on her back legs. It’s honestly the best kind of therapy. She is just pure happiness on four legs.
