A social media video of a 4-year-old golden retriever dog demanding to be burped after every single one of her meals has left the internet in hysterics.
The TikTok video captures the moment when the shaded-red golden retriever comes over to her owner after being asked if she’s “ready to be burped,” indicating that this is something that the pup is used to and has learned.
The dog then sits down on the couch beside her owner and relaxes while she pats her down, in the exact same way someone would if they were burping a baby. The female golden retriever appears to be enjoying the experience, as she sits patiently beside her owner while being burped and lets out a large smile at the camera.
“This is our 4-year-old golden retriever named Roxy,” the dog’s owner, Amber Hall, told Newsweek.
“She loves to be burped after every meal. It’s so silly and cute, but I had no clue that the video would go viral,” she added.
The TikTok video, which can be seen here, has now been viewed nearly 5 million times across the world, making it the account’s most popular post to date by far.
A caption across the video reads: “[She] insists I burp her after every meal.”
The post has been captioned: “Don’t know how this started, but now I have to do it after every meal.”
Hall and Roxy live together with the rest of their family in Michigan.
