Many dogs truly believe that if they can’t see you, you can’t see them. It’s a flawed strategy, but it is also what makes hide and seek with them so delightfully ridiculous. In a now-viral video, a Pit Bull mix proved that being terrible at hiding can be just as entertaining as being good at it, maybe even more so.
Dog doesn’t really know how to play hide and seek but she thinks she does
Rhubarb, a lovable Pit Bull mix, is fully convinced she is good at hide-and-seek. According to a now-viral video, however, the reality is a little different. Shared by her owner, the clip captures Rhubarb crouched under a blanket, clearly thinking she is invisible. Unfortunately for her, her wildly wagging tail sticking out from under the cover gives her away instantly.
The best part comes when her owner, playing along, lifts the opposite side of the blanket in search of Rhubarb. Her face peeks out, full of exaggerated expressions, like she is genuinely trying to blend in. It’s clear she is 100% committed to the game, even if she hasn’t quite mastered the mechanics. The moment is funny, innocent, and entirely endearing.
In the video’s comments, people happily played along with the dog’s version of hide and seek. “Why are you posting a picture of just a bed? I can see nothing else in this video…” one commenter joked. Another said, “Just keep looking!! You will eventually find her,” poking fun at her not-so-hidden position. One viewer added, “She is good at it. Look how well hidden she is,” with a laughing emoji. Perhaps the most wholesome comment came from someone who wrote, “The little tail getting excited about being found.”
As far as Rhubarb is concerned, she probably thinks she won the game, and judging by the internet’s reaction, she kind of did.
