Dexter, affectionately known as Shnootle, is a black Labrador Retriever who is famous on Instagram for his playful and endearing personality. User @shnootle.hound recently shared a video of the dog, showing his excitement for an outing with his mom. The video has garnered widespread attention, racking up 64K likes and captivating thousands of viewers with his joyous nature.
Dog cannot contain excitement after sensing mom’s outing plans in video
In the video, the dog sits on his mom’s lap while she prepares him for an outing. The owner engages Shnootle in a conversation, while the video’s on-screen texts offer a humorous translation to the canine’s quiet responses. When the owner calls, “Shnootle,” the on-screen text, showing the dog’s retort, says, “Yes mahm.” The conversation unfolds as the pet mom asks what Shnootle would like to do. “You decide… but something fun,” says the text, relaying the dog’s wishes.
The Labrador Retriever’s anticipation increases as the conversation continues. When the owner pushes further, asking, “What would you like to do?” the dog’s captioned response is, “Umm I think you know mahm.” Tension builds before the pet parent finishes asking, “Would you…” Before she can finish her question, Shnootle is already bursting with excitement. He leaps from his owner’s lap, unable to contain himself.
After inviting him to settle on her lap again, the paw parent commands, “We’re trying to be calm,” but Shnootle simply can’t contain his excitement. She teases, “We’re trying to be calm even if we are going to talk about going to the park,” prompting Shnootle to jump out of her lap once again. Adding to the excitement, the owner mentions, “We could go take the ball,” and Shnootle offers his owner a toy to bring along.
The pooch gets more excited than ever when the prospect of going to the river comes up. The video transitions to footage of the dog and his mom’s river outing. Shnootle involves himself in various activities at the river, including “practise breathing under water,” “stick rescue,” “finding the plug hole,” “otter impersonation,” and “drama class.” Shnootle’s video is proof of the joy and excitement that a dog brings into their owner’s life, even if it involves planning a simple outing with mom.
