Having left her little Dachshund Snoopy at doggy daycare, Angelica decided to check the cameras to see how he was getting on.

Angelica, from Texas, U.S., is the proud owner of Snoopy, a little 7-year-old Dachshund

She decided to take him to a doggy daycare, hoping he would settle in and enjoy the experience.

Curious to see how her four-legged friend was integrating into the group, she decided to connect up to the daycare's camera. When she saw her furbaby, her heart dropped. 

Angelica saw Snoopy sitting in a corner all alone. Looking bewildered and confused, he wasn't interacting with the other dogs at all. 

The video, which has now been viewed over 400,000 times on TikTok, goes to show that daycare may not be the right option for all dogs. "As someone who works in a daycare... I can say some dogs just prefer being alone", explained one viewer, while another commented "if I saw this I would have stopped whatever I was doing to take my dog back".

"I literally did, it was a family emergency", responded Snoopy's devoted owner.

Needless to say, Angelica never took her pup back to daycare again.
