The footage shows the dog lounging on the floor, fixated on a woman chopping sausage on the kitchen worktop. The woman uses her knife to knock a slice of sausage onto the floor, landing right in front of the dog.
Sneaky snack
The Labrador watches the sausage fall and hesitates briefly. It then slides forward and covers the slice with its paw, glancing up at the woman. The dog appears to be hiding the sausage, perhaps unsure if it was meant for him and worried the woman might take it back.
As the woman lifts the chopping board and turns her back to the dog, it seizes the moment, quickly gobbling up the hidden treat.
The manoeuvre is executed with a blend of cunning and innocence, endearing the canine to viewers on social media.
Labrador skills!
The charming clip has amassed 816,312 likes on Instagram. Dog lovers are delighted by the mischievous pup. One viewer humorously commented, “I didn't do anything, no one saw me, you can't prove anything!” while another simply admired the “Labrador skills.”
It's safe to say the clever dog must have been quite pleased with its sneaky snack (and outsmarting its human)!
