Everyone has a weakness — for some, it’s coffee; for Hamish, it’s croissants. The rescue Greyhound from Camden, London, has officially joined the ranks of internet stars with this video, all thanks to his growing obsession with croissants. His mom, Lara, captured the adorable progression on her Instagram handle, @hamishthegrey, where followers can’t get enough of his long-legged elegance and naughty charm.
In this video, it all begins innocently enough — Hamish spots the brown paper bag holding Lara’s croissant during their walk and gives it a polite sniff. However, as time goes by, that curiosity turns into something much bolder and far more delicious.

The video of the rescue Greyhound’s blown up, and everyone’s cracking up over Hamish’s croissant mission. It starts with the pup’s initial, subtle interest, as he walks with his mom, eyeing a croissant in a brown paper bag. The in-video text explains his progression: “My rescue Greyhound’s love for croissants, but he gets progressively bolder.”
On another walk, he spots the bag, then just gives it a quick, casual sniff while still walking. Each walk makes him a little bolder. Before long, he’s taking longer, more deliberate sniffs. His mom, perhaps a little too trusting, even starts holding the croissant out for him to take polite bites during their walks. This only fuels his growing confidence.
The final shot is the glorious culmination of his journey: Hamish, with zero shame, swipes an entire croissant right off the outdoor cafe table where his human is sitting. He, then, happily chomps on his prize afterward.
The comments section had a field day. One viewer joked, “Croissants can actually turn dogs French — gateway drug to baguettes and brioche.” Another laughed, “Be bold. Eat that croissant. Have zero regrets.” That’s exactly the energy Hamish brings — a little boldness, a dash of charm, and a lot of buttery joy.
