In Spain, we love dogs. In July 2022, there were 6.6 million inhabitants between the ages of 0 and 14, according to data from the National Institute of Statistics (INE), a lower figure when compared to the number of dogs on the census. According to the National Association of Pet Food Manufacturers (Anfaac), there are more than 9.3 million dogs registered in our country. More dogs than children.

This is excellent news for these animals, who are delighted to receive the love and warmth of their owners, and their entire family. For this reason, it is extremely difficult for dogs to decide who they prefer at home, although there are owners who insist on putting them in this position.

That’s what a couple did, in a video that later went viral on Instagram. In the publication, it is seen how the owners stand next to the dog, a somewhat small breed, but very playful, judging by its movements.

To the surprise of the animal, at a certain moment, the owners run off in completely opposite directions. He stands in the middle, not quite knowing what to do. Look both ways incredulous. He cannot choose between one and the other, no matter how much they force him.

Users have not only been struck by this reaction. The dog then starts spinning around at top speed. And again. “He is possessed”, some users said. However, others criticized their owners for the level of stress they had subjected him to, assuring that it was something “cruel”.
