Puppy has hilarious reaction to his owner’s compliments

Dogs loved to be complimented. They love to hear their owners tell them that they are a good boy or girl. Their normal response is to wag their tail and snuggle up to their owners. One dog, though, took offense to his owner’s compliments in an adorable video.

In the video, a little puppy sits behind his owner wearing a red bandana. The bandana is huge on his small body, looking more like a necktie. New to the world, the puppy didn’t seem to know how to take a compliment from his owner, who turned to talk to him.

On the clip, which has gotten over 2.4 million views on YouTube, the dog’s owner, Sean Sarantos, left a caption, which read:

“This adorable little puppy looks even more handsome than normal in his bandanna, and his owner likes to remind him of this. However, the puppy hasn’t quite learned how to graciously accept a compliment and barks every time he hears it.”

In the video, the tiny, white puppy licks Sarantos’ face as he asks him “Hey, how do you like your bandana?” As he asks again, “Do you like it,” the puppy gives a little bark.

At first, he seems confused as to what exactly his owner is getting at. Then as Sarantos tells him his bandana is very nice, the puppy seems to get defensive.

Finally, as Sarantos tells him he looks handsome, the puppy nips him on the back of the neck. Despite this, Sarantos continues by telling him he still thinks he looks handsome.

In one last attempt to tell him how much he likes his bandana, Sarantos turns to the puppy, repeating himself, “How do you like your bandanna? You look super handsome.”

This causes the puppy to lift his paw and give a huff. He still seems confused with what exactly a compliment is. As the video nears its end, the puppy goes in for another nibble on Sarantos’ neck. Sarantos laughs at him as the video draws to a close.

The viewers loved the puppy’s attitude

“A lot of attitude in such a small package. So super-duper cute.”

While another added:

“The puppy is saying I want to look tough…don’t make me look like a wuss.”

One viewer even commented:

“He’s so mannish! He’s like, ‘yeah fool I know I look good. I don’t need yo’ compliments!’ So cute.”
