Have you ever considered what your dog does when you are not present at home?
I usually take my dogs with me wherever I travel, but there are occasions when that is simply not feasible. Sometimes, they must remain behind and hold down the fort.
I had never contemplated installing a camera within my home. The one positioned outside, monitoring my entrances, suffices for my needs. Yet, I cannot resist the curiosity of discovering what my dogs might be up to if there was a camera keeping an eye on them.
A woman from Durham, North Carolina, realized she could use a camera to observe her dog when she was away.
However, what Sundae, the 10-year-old Labrador female, did when her owner departed the house astonished everyone, particularly those on social media.
Who’s That Observing Me?
Now I can finally see what she does when I’m not nearby and understand why my belongings have inexplicably found their way to her dog bed.
That’s precisely what Sundae’s owner considered while having that indoor camera set up.
Whenever she ventured out to run errands, she would return home to find her Labrador girl surrounded by items such as socks, lip balms, shoes, shirts, etc… essentially anything carrying mom’s scent.
“When I’d leave her alone, even if it was just for a brief period, I’d come back to find her nestled with my shoes, socks, practically any clothing item, and occasionally random objects like lip balm in her bed. I had never witnessed her in the act of placing items in her bed and was genuinely curious to see how she accomplished it,” Sundae’s mom shared.
Mom didn’t have to wait long to trial her Lab girl and the new camera. She required groceries soon after the camera was installed, making it an ideal chance to leave Sundae at home.
The camera, being a contemporary device, sends alerts to your phone when movement is detected. Sure enough, mom’s phone buzzed, and she activated the live feed from the house.
What was Sundae up to?
Was she creating chaos, wrecking the living room, or scratching at the entrance door?
Was she experiencing a meltdown?
You would never suspect what this lovely North Carolina girl did.
While most would anticipate utter chaos and exuberant runs around the house, that was not the scenario with Sundae.
Do you know why the camera activated?
Because Sundae wandered over to the front door, lay down looking quite forlorn, and awaited her mother’s return.
This charming black Lab girl did not become frantic from being left alone. She appeared somewhat heartbroken.
“Every time she shifted by the door, I would receive a notification,” Sundae’s mom said. “My heart truly broke; I was tearing up in the grocery store while watching her wait for me.”
Well, fortunately, stores like Hobby Lobby and T.J.Maxx welcome dogs, so Sundae can accompany her mom while shopping.
Ms. Sundae, The TikTok Sensation
The clip of Sundae waiting for her mom near the front door went viral on TikTok. With over 2 million views, it’s clear this precious pup has gained considerable fame on this social media platform.
Nonetheless, this isn’t the sole viral clip featuring Sundae and her mom.
Did you know that this Labrador lady is quite the celebrity, known for dressing up in a variety of costumes?
I’m not joking.
It all began some time ago when Sundae was bitten by ants and developed an ugly rash. Her mom needed to apply a special cream on her belly to manage the rash. But, how does one communicate with a dog not to lick that area? A cone was not a viable solution.
So, what did Sundae’s mother do? She cut a pair of her sweatpants and fashioned them into a outfit for Sundae to prevent her from licking the cream.
Ms. Sundae adored her new pants immensely! Before long, she acquired her own wardrobe that highlighted the unique fashion sense lurking inside this pooch.
Gradually, various accessories found their way into Sundae’s closet, like sunglasses, jewelry, and even wigs. She resembles a lady, and it’s simply too amusing to witness.
