The dog was like:" Ok, let me just stay here and see how long it will take him to notice."

It's like your kid start walking away, and you just wait to see how long they realize they are following the wrong person

IT'S THAT A THING PARENTS DO?! I still have flashbacks to the time I followed the wrong mom around a target

When your child refuses to hold your hand and stay beside you, sometimes you need to do stuff like that. Obviously, the parent has to have always control of the situation, and usually, the child never goes thar far

Or just leave the little shit and run the opposite direction

My mom would do that all the time growing up. If me or my brother got distracted and wandered off or looked at something for too long she would sneak away and hide and start sprinting down different aisles if one of us found her. Good times

I went to Disney when I was 7 and was obsessed with the paper maps they handed out. I stared at it almost the whole trip and I accidentally followed the wrong dad with a baseball cap, knee-high white socks, and khaki shorts. My parents didn’t stop and abandon me on purpose, but damn man those 30 seconds were scary for me and my parents. I can still see my mom’s face when she found me. She took the map from me and I was devastated.

I once grabbed a strange man's hand in an airport terminal, thinking he was my father.
In my defense, he was of similar height (read: much taller than me), and was wearing the same trenchcoat my dad was wearing that day.

I once grabbed a strange childs hand at Disney. Was there with my son and bf, and we were waiting to get into something or another. The lights dimmed and I heard kiddo whisper "I'm scared!" So I reached over and held his hand all, "I'm here it's okay!"
A moment later the lights went back up, and the doors opened for us to go in... We start walking and my bf is all, uh who's child is that? I look and realize this isn't my kid, the people next to me look at me all confused, and my bf, who is holding my kiddos hand, starts laughing.
I was so mortified 😭😂
Thankfully the parents understood what happened, and cracked up.

I don't even understand how this is possible. Like I get not being visually aware of your surroundings because of your phone, but it would be impossible for me not to notice that I'm dragging the leash. Even if I'm wearing headphones and oblivious to the sound there is added resistance.

I have had this happened to me and my dog.. and you are just completely in your own world and my dogi was a dog that I had to half drag to get to walk and for some reason the leach dragging felt very similar to my dog when I was distracted.. did notice eventually but no idé how long she was free

u/anomalous_cowherd 2d ago
I had the opposite. One of my dogs trails along behind me and walks very nicely, the other two tend to be all over the place, pulling to the nearest good smell.
One time the good one slipped her collar but I didn't realise because she was walking along right behind me just like always. Once I realised I thought back and realised the last tug I felt from her lead was about a mile back...

Because right around :06 there is an edit in the video where someone obviously undid the harness. If you were doing it for Internet points I bet you could do a whole lot of dumb shit you can't imagine you would do accidentally.

u/AndrewInaTree 2d ago
That cut was just a zoom-in so we could see it better. The harness starts to fall off before that cut.

u/kratosgranola 2d ago
The dog accidentally steps into the inside of the harness, undoing the velcro/snaps/whatever holds it together

Being distracted by the phone isn't going to prevent you from A) hearing the dragging, b) feeling the difference in weight and resistance, c) noticing the leash is never moving to the side or in front as dogs are oft to do.
He does notice once he looks up but, nah. This is by far fake.

There is an obvious cut between when the dog stops and when the human proceeds.

u/Woo-Cash1900 2d ago
There is a cut but probably just to zoom in. I don't think it's made of two takes. But I think it's still fake. Everything in the internet is.

u/Cosmic_Quasar 1d ago
The cut is so that they could undo the harness so it just slids off, because the buckle of it is just out of frame below the stairs at that point making harder to notice.

The last where he started yelling the dogs name was cut off. That's the funniest part

Dog has been well trained not to go on the road unless it's walking time.
His training had not prepared him for this moment.

I'd probably believe it more if it didn't perfectly time the discovery to just before he walked out of shot.

Why are people so addicted to their phones? It's honestly getting scary how distracted people constantly are.

u/YeetusMeridius 2d ago
It sounds like the dog had a cast thst had recently been removed, and this was the first walk minus cast so harness didnt fit dog it fit the cast.

This guy is actually an asshole though because the number one rule of dog walking is that you let the dog set the pace, for this exact reason.

I'm calling shenanigans on this one, the change in sound and weight would be more than enough to make you aware.
