Grim is just hanging out on the living room floor with his mom when the video starts. He is a one-year-old Black Australian Shepherd mix who really values his quiet time. Everything seems totally fine while his mom films him. The TV is playing in the background. It is just a normal afternoon in NYC, but then the quiet ends abruptly.
In the video, we hear his mom cough right next to her dog in the middle of the room. And Grim is not having it. He actually looks deeply insulted.
Dog reacts hilariously after owner coughs in a funny video
His eyes start doing all the work immediately. It is a look of pure judgment. Australian Shepherds are known for being very alert and focused on their humans. So obviously, he is paying very close attention to her lack of manners. He starts barking and whining at the exact same time, like it is a very specific type of complaint.
Then, he turns his head away from her in a massive, dramatic move, like he can’t even look at her after that. His owner says, “he looks so offended” in the caption. And honestly, she is right.
The drama just keeps going as Mom decides to cough a second time to see what happens. This time, Grim turns back, and his face changes, turning a little bit concerned for a split second.
But then, Grim realizes it might just be a prank. He starts barking again in that same complaining tone. He is definitely scolding her for interrupting his peace. A lot of people in the comments of the video agreed that the dog had every right to be mad about that noise. One person was very impressed with his intense side-eye.
Over 5,700 people liked the clip at the time of writing, because everyone knows a pet that acts like the boss. One fan joked that it was rude to interrupt his peace. Another person noticed that by the second time, he was actually checking to see if she was okay before going back to being mad. He is just a very expressive guy.
