It is always fun to teach your dogs new things. However, sometimes it can be a little too tough for the fur babies to grasp a new skill. For this adorable Bernese Mountain Dog named Gus, it was indeed a very tough time when he had to catch a treat from his human parent’s hands. The pet parent captured the entire teaching session and posted the video on Instagram on June 25 through the dog’s official account @waltandgusthebernese. Since then, the clip has gone viral on social media with 254K views and 19.4K likes at the time of writing.
Instagram video shows Bernese Mountain Dog missing treat every single time
A hilarious video on Instagram capturing a 2-year-old Bernese Mountain Dog named Gus failing to learn how to catch a treat despite his human parent’s guidance has left the internet in stitches. In the caption of the post, the pet parent dramatically expressed, “There is truly no hope for him.”
The Instagram video began with the owner starting the teaching session for catching the treats. The pet parent went on to encourage the adorable fur baby Gus to try his best to catch the treat with his mouth. In the meantime, the text written over the clip read, “Teaching my 2 year old how to catch.”
The owner then showed the fur baby how the trick was done by throwing a treat at their other dog, Walter. The dog expertly caught the treat. However, when it was Gus’ turn, the cute dog failed to catch it, and the treat fell on his head, making the video even more funny to watch.
People have been loving the Instagram video, and they have been expressing their thoughts on it in the comment section. One person could relate to the situation. They added, “My dog is the same, and it’s cute and sad.” “Gus is the perfect name for him,” penned another Instagram user.
