Pets have a special place in the family, and the arrival of a new member often brings out the most unexpected yet touching moments. Such is the case in a recent viral video where a Goldendoodle dog named Bo enthusiastically tries to play his favorite game of fetch with his newborn sister.
Dog waits patiently for baby to play fetch with him in funny video
Bo, the Goldendoodle, has taken on a new role in the family ever since the arrival of a baby girl. In the TikTok video shared by the baby’s mother, Elly Warner, Bo gently places his beloved ball into the baby’s bouncer, hopeful for a game of fetch. Despite the baby’s inability to toss the ball back, Bo sits patiently, waiting for a throw that never comes.
The dog’s owner, Warner, explains to Newsweek that Bo’s efforts to include the newborn in his favorite pastime are a daily occurrence, with Bo trying to initiate play at least five times a day. Even when the ball remains untouched, Bo nudges it closer to the baby, his hope undiminished. If nothing else works, he offers affectionate kisses, perhaps hoping to encourage the little one to join in his game.
While Bo’s expectations remain unmet, his earnestness and patience are heartwarming. The dog, who once engaged solely with his human parents for playtime, now seems fixated on introducing his newest family member to the joys of fetch. Warner notes that since the baby came home, Bo prefers giving the ball to her, rather than the capable hands of the adults.
This charming interaction has captivated the TikTok community, garnering over 728K and 1580 comments. Some users joked about the dog’s bewilderment and others marveled at his patience. One viewer humorously questioned Bo’s logic, asking, “Then why are you here?” Even the official Pedigree account couldn’t resist joining in, saying, “He is NOT impressed.”
