Video: Dogs Listening to Being Praised Is Everything

Sydney and Oliver are essentially living the dream of every toddler — getting a non-stop stream of compliments just for existing. In a recent clip from @oliversue_sydney, we get a front-row seat to what happens when these two Texas-born Australian Stumpy tail Cattle Dogs realize they are being truly celebrated. It’s not fleeting; it’s a full-on emotional soak. The action kicks off with Sydney pinning her chin to the sofa, looking up at her parents with only adoration. She listens intently as they marvel at her natural “eyeliner,” looking like she’s fully aware she’s a masterpiece. This video of the dogs getting their share of praise is your happy dose for the day.

Dogs rest next to owners and listen to all the praises

Watching Sydney’s face light up as her dad gushes over her is very entertaining. She looks like she’s blushing through the fur. At one point, her dad even jokes about where the rest of her body went since it’s just a floating “Sydney head” resting on the cushions. She stays completely “in it”, lapping up every bit of praise and offering a few hand-licks the second the scritches stop. One fan in the comments even suggested her smile needs its own separate fan club.

Just when you think the love fest is over, Dad asks the million-dollar question in the caption: “Did you stay long enough to catch a glimpse of Oliver?” When he asks Sydney where her brother is, Sydney goes out of the frame on cue. The video then cuts to her brother Oliver in the exact same spot and pose as his sister earlier.

He’s got these “dreamy eyes” that his dad can’t stop talking about. Then he turns his face to give his dad’s arm some sweet kisses. while he hears about what a handsome fella he is. His mom calls him a “mama’s boy,” and Oliver just sits there with a tiny, satisfied smirk as if to say, “I know.”

The whole video is a massive mood boost, with each dog getting their fair share of praise. Then Oliver gets a final “boop” on the nose before heading off. It’s funny how these two treat a compliment session like a spa treatment. Sydney’s expressive face and Oliver’s cool-guy smirks are enough to make anyone’s day.
