Dogs Left With Dad React Like They’ve Been Betrayed

2 days ago 6

We all know dogs can be a little dramatic. Whether they’re sulking because you stepped outside for five minutes or giving you side-eye for daring to move their bed, their flair for emotional expression is unmatched. But one Instagram video might take the gold medal in canine theatrics.

In a hilarious clip posted by @housenorules, a group of dogs react in unison to the unthinkable: being left alone with Dad—the “spare human.”

The video starts with the caption: “Leaving the kids with the spare human.” In it, five dogs line up at the door, their expressions an uncanny mix of sadness, betrayal, and judgment. Their mom is preparing to leave, and her camera captures every hilarious second of her dogs silently begging her not to go.

Standing right beside them is Dad, the so-called spare human. While clearly part of the family, he isn’t their first choice in that moment. The dogs barely glance at him. One might even say he blends into the background—at least in their eyes.

“I know you’re stuck with him, and what a disappointment that is,” Mom says with tongue-in-cheek sympathy, before reassuring them, “but I’ll be back.” As the camera pans to the staircase, two more dogs peek down from above, equally unimpressed.

The moment plays like a sitcom, with the dogs resembling grumpy toddlers left with a babysitter they didn’t vote for. And the internet could not get enough.

One viewer commented, “They’re all standing there like ‘why hast thou forsaken us?’” Another wrote, “HOW DO YOU LIVE IN THE GARDEN OF EDEN!? A blessing-full of dogs!”

The dad, for his part, seemed to take it in stride. “The husband has no objection to her comment,” a user noted. “He’s standing there like ‘guys, what are we gonna do now?’”

It’s a perfect snapshot of dog family dynamics—one that every dog parent can relate to. And yes, every household needs at least one “spare human.”
