Goldendoodle Has ‘Arch Enemy’ Cousin Over To Stay, Hysterics Over Response

A goldendoodle from Florida has become an internet sensation after a video of him reaction to an unexpected guest staying over for the night went viral on TikTok.

The hilarious clip, shared in June under the username @loganmakenzee, shows the dog sitting stiffly upright in his doggy armchair, eyes locked on the front door where his cousin is standing up staring at him.

“When your arch enemy of a cousin comes to stay the night” reads layover text on the clip. The caption says: “It’s giving bratty sister vibes.”

If you suspect that your dog dislikes a particular canine, you might be right. Experts at VetStreet say that, just like we sometimes can’t stand other people, dogs can also feel the same way about other pups.

But how do dogs decide who they like and who they don’t? It is mostly in the smell. With a nose that can smell up to 100,000 times better than humans’, canines can pick up all sorts of olfactory clues that signal something they either like or dislike.

And the other dog doesn’t even need to be close for your pup to make this decision, because they can do it from a long distance, too.

Another reason your dog may not like another specific canine is because of past experiences, with either the pup in question or a very similar pup. In fact, dogs that smell, look, or move in a similar way can all be a trigger.

And, last but not least, your pup may just be hyper-protective of you. Maybe your dog doesn’t just hate all other pups; it just doesn’t want you to be near any of them.

The video quickly went viral on social media and has so far received over 2.6 million views and more than 281,000 likes on the platform.

One user, Apg8113, commented: “I can’t explain it but they both look so human it’s weird.”

Ty posted: “She refuses to leave her throne until her court date. She’s suing her parents for upholstering the chair with her fur.”

Caroline added: “The little one looks like the annoying little villain cousin if this were a cartoon.”
