For pet owners preparing to become parents, it was wagging tails and puppy eyes before dirty diapers and baby cries — not that their furry child would ever let them forget that. A mom documented the moment her dog made it crystal clear that she wasn’t okay with sharing her attention with the human baby in this hilarious Instagram video that has since gone viral. The clip also showed how the owner tried to make it okay for everyone by juggling her love, and it’s the perfect cheat sheet for doing balance right.
Dog places herself in between owner and her baby to get attention in cute video
Pet owners, who are also new parents, need to know the key to graceful and effective balance, otherwise their furry one won’t shy from demanding full spotlight. This too-cute-to-handle viral Instagram video documented a similar situation when a dog, a Dachshund named Gigi, placed herself between her owner and the baby to get attention. The subtext shared more context into the post, “gigi when the human baby is still here after a month.”
The clip showed the furball wedged between the dog owner, who is also a new mom, and her newborn baby. The trio appeared to be resting on what looked like a couch, with Gigi occupying the most unusual space to make her presence known. The dog sat on top of the owner’s chest while she held her little one on her lap. It seemed like the three had to compromise on some of their comfort and make adjustments. That way, nobody missed out on the love and affection they very clearly deserved.
In addition, the video proved that the dog was “not a fan of not being an only child anymore” and was unsure about the divided attention. Nevertheless, she chose to share the snuggles and her mom’s love with her human sibling. Commenters quickly shared what they believed Gigi was thinking at the moment. “I thoughts this was temporary,” wrote one user, quoting the pooch, while another commented, “I’m just going to scoot on in here.” Another individual joked how nobody “asked her if she wanted a sister.”
