A television series showcasing badly behaving dogs had one chocolate lab so spooked she couldn’t hide her emotions.
In a video posted to the account @cloverthechoclab, the dog Clover was snuggling on the couch with her owners, enjoying a night of television. Well, it was supposed to be a relaxing evening, but once she saw how the dogs were behaving on the show, she couldn’t believe her eyes.
The show, Dogs Behaving Badly, was stressing Clover out. Her eyes were peeled open, almost sticking out of her head. She couldn’t believe dogs get away with so much on this show. That is until master dog trainer Graeme Hall steps in and finds solutions to help correct the bad behaviors.
The caption reads: “When watching Dogs Behaving Badly gets too much.”
The show has been running since 2019, highlighting different dog breeds and owners of various backgrounds across the United Kingdom. Hall’s special remedy gives owners quick and long-lasting solutions. He has even helped celebrities with badly behaved canines.
Common bad dog behaviors, according to the American Kennel Club (AKC), include chewing, jumping, countersurfing, pulling on the leash, and barking. Correcting these behaviors will take time and patience, but it is not impossible.
Dog owners hoping to start with success should remember that training is key. Teach your dogs as early as possible. The AKC recommends using positive reinforcement training as it will strengthen your bond and give them mental stimulation, tiring them out and leading them to be less likely to misbehave. Other tips for success include puppy-proofing the house and giving them plenty of exercise to help release their energy.
The March 3 TikTok video brought in nearly 30,000 views, 2,034 likes, and 22 comments as of Monday.
One viewer pointed out: “She looks so concerned about them!”
The owner reassured that she was fine: “She gets so concerned when there’s upset people on the telly. Wee sensitive soul.”
Other users were sharing their experience while watching the same show: “My dog will sit and watch this show too- but I swear it’s just for more tips on how to misbehave!”
But this couple views the show as training tips to be better dog owners since they believe “99 percent of the time, it’s something the owners are doing wrong.”
Clover is no stranger to having big expressions, her owner told Newsweek via TikTok.
“She’s so human-like it can be kind of creepy,” the owner said.
