Video of man annoying Labrador by ignoring him goes viral
- 6 years ago
Funny video from Suffolk in England of pet owner Carl deliberately trying to make his pet Labrador Charlie jealous.
In the video, filmed in Stowmarket in 2015, Carl pointedly looks away from Charlie, who starts to bark, apparently in something of a jealous pique.
Explains Carl, a night manager at Tesco supermarket: "Charlie gets grumpy when you don't give him attention if you're sitting on the floor next to him. We uploaded it to YouTube so our family could see it two years ago. Now all of a sudden its had almost 100,000 views in one week ... two years after it was first posted there."
Carl and his wife Heidi have had Charlie since he was eight weeks old. The Labrador has always been an attention seeker, he says.
"He has always been an attention seeker and get jealous whenever he is not the centre of attention. As you can see from the video [nappies and toys in the background], we had recently had our first child so he was making sure he was still noticed.
"He is now seven years old so was five when we filmed it."
