A viral Instagram video of a dog hiding as he plays hide-and-seek with his owner has taken the internet by storm. User @suavexavier_ shared the clip, showcasing him and the Doberman playing the hilarious game. Not only is the dog amusing but he is sharp-witted, leaving the internet in stitches with his comedic timing.
Doberman looks for owner after he tries to hide in the house
The Instagram video shows the dog, Knox, and his owner while they hide behind a kitchen counter. Knox is the one seeking his owner while it’s the latter’s turn to hide. Throughout the hilarious game of hide and seek, the owner is determined to outsmart his canine friend. However, the witty Doberman’s mission is to ruin his owner’s plans, and he does so flawlessly.
The video is set against the backdrop of a kitchen, where the owner chooses the perfect hiding spot – the counter. He runs to the kitchen, hurriedly shrinking behind the kitchen counter. While he thinks he has found a way to outsmart his Doberman, Knox arrives in the kitchen and does not take long to catch up to him. The owner shuffles positions, thinking he has fooled his dog. All this while, Knox tiptoes behind him without the owner having any clue, proving he cannot be fooled.
While the owner waits for Knox, the dog makes slow, deliberate steps, biding his time to make his move. Once the human companion shifts to another position, the dog darts behind the counter in a perfect ambush. The Doberman’s owner is amazed and amused. His startled laughter sums up his caption: “You can run… but you can’t hide.”
The video of the dog as he hides to catch his owner only to find him, fair and square, proves the joy pets bring to their owners. With spontaneous laughter and genuine connection, a simple game of hide and seek can turn into a fun, strategic adventure.
