This is a scene many dog owners know all too well: as dinnertime approaches, pets realize that a little extra effort can get them their meal early. In one charming video, a clever German Shepherd has mastered the trick. His strategy is simple and effective. He whines cutely to try to get his dinner early. Even when his dad initially declines, the determined pup eventually wins and gets his meal.
Dog whines adorably, and owner caves
This dog doesn’t care about dinnertime; he’ll have his meal whenever he wants. In a clip shared by @bestboybenson, a German Shepherd named Benson throws a tantrum in the cutest way possible to get his owner to serve him dinner.
The video starts with Benson staring adorably at his owner, and when asked to sit, he politely does so. When his owner asks if he’s crying because he wants dinner, Benson tilts his head and whines softly, as if confirming it.
He seems to think his dad will give in and serve him right away. But nothing of the sort happens. The owner explains that it’s only 4:30 and not dinnertime yet.
Hearing this, Benson whines again and even pretends to leave the room, hoping it will convince his dad to serve him. Seeing his stubbornness, the owner finally gives in and serves his fur baby dinner. The owner shared that “sometimes Benson is in charge of when he eats,” showing the true picture of a household with a pet.
Dogs can show their stubbornness in the cutest way possible when they want food. It doesn’t matter if it’s not their dinnertime. If they want to eat something, they’ll stop at nothing to get what they want.
Pet lovers couldn’t help but adore the video. One user wrote, “No better sound than the gsd whining.” Others jokingly commented that their dogs want dinner all day. Meanwhile, others called the dog “beautiful” and “adorable.”
