Every dog reacts differently to their first encounter with another creature. To provide a perfect example, this Instagram video shows how a Labrador responds to meeting a new friend from the sea. Named Mabel, she seems not so “pleased” with the situation. In the caption, the owner mentions that the particular meet-and-greet happened about a year ago.
Instagram video shows Labrador’s reaction upon meeting her first crayfish
A funny video on Instagram has grabbed viewers’ attention, featuring two Labradors, Stella and Mabel. However, the hilarious clip solely focuses on the latter’s reaction upon meeting her first crayfish. According to the Instagram Reel, the furbabies seem to be enjoying quality time with some humans, most probably friends and family of their owner.
It shows three people and the two pups on a dock when a person approaches Mabel with a crayfish. She hesitates to even look at the sea creature with pointy claws. The video of the Labrador meeting her friend from the sea then captures slo-mo shots of the canine rejecting any type of interaction with the crayfish.
She appears to be moving backward with an expression of disgust, shaking her head while flapping her ears, and supposedly growling over the possible threat.
While the dog has not enjoyed the meeting, her expressions are priceless. Hence, viewers could not control their laughter and shared their opinion in the comment section. A user wrote, “Judging from her reaction, it wasn’t a pleasant first encounter.”
Another commented, “So that’s a hard no on the crawfish for Mabel.” One individual appeared to be the Labrador’s fan, as they pointed out how the pup, who “tears trees down by eating them raw (as opposed to cooked),” is afraid of a tiny sea creature.
Some also stated: “These photos are priceless,” and “So much side eye.” Meanwhile, netizens also showered their love on Mabel and mentioned that she is way different from Stella. The video has garnered over 689K views and 80K likes at the time of writing.
