Have you ever been on a vacation or had such a good day that you just didn’t want to go back home and return to the daily grind? You’re not alone. In fact, sometimes even dogs don’t want their jaunts into the big outside world to end.
One Japanese dog was so adamant about not wanting to go home after her walk in the park, that she just laid on the ground and refused to get up, but with a big ole smile on her face the whole time. She was so dogged (pun very much intended) that the owner had no choice but to take this adorable video.
Throughout the video, the owner says a variety to commands, “Let’s go home now,” “Walk!” and “Don’t lie on your back!” But the dog clearly picked up on his master’s laughing because she did not take the commands seriously, only getting up when she was offered treats.
