Next to eating and cuddling, a dog’s favorite activity is probably playing outside. No dog likes being cooped up inside the house all day. So, they make the most out of every opportunity they get to be outside.
But some dogs get a little more crafty than others when it comes to convincing their owners to stay out just a bit longer. Case in point is this cute puppy who decided she doesn’t want to go back in the house just yet.
Instead, she decided to play a game of hide and seek with her owners.
When your dog wants to play hide and seek
In a video posted by her owner, Kelly Davenport Jackson, we can see little Tasha diving and hiding behind a pot for plants whenever she is called to go inside the house.
But whenever she hears the door shut, she gives herself away by peeking up over the top of the pot she’s hiding behind, as you can see in the screen capture below.
The situation is both hilarious and one many of us can relate to as we’re sure most pet owners have experienced a similar thing at one point in time.
Going viral on Facebook
Of course, the video is just too precious not to share with other people, so Tasha’s owner Kelly posted it on her Facebook profile.
As you might have been able to predict, the video quickly blew up getting a whopping 43 million worth of views and over 1.1 million shares on Facebook alone.
Clearly, a lot of people were able to relate to the familiar situation.
Everyone started commenting on the video, noting how similar it was to some dogs they know. In fact, the Facebook video has over 100,000 comments already, mostly of people expressing just how funny or loveable they think it is.
One Facebook user, Nathalie Marie, commented:
“Tasha is famous now ❤ this video made me laugh so much ! Thank you ❤😊 she is so smart !”
Meanwhile, Heather Donnalli pointed out what everyone else was thinking and said:
“Tasha is so cute! She needs her own Facebook account!”
Dogs’ favorite game
We’re not surprised that the video got so much attention, especially from other pet owners. It seems that a lot of our furry friends have a particular liking for a good game of hide and seek.

Another Twitter user, @Cory_1077, shared a short clip of her dog’s clever hiding spot cuddling beneath another dog in such a sneaky manner. We’re betting you might have a hard time finding her had the other dog not moved.
