An extremely clever done has gone viral after making his owner believe that he hasn’t eaten a treat that was given to him.
Basically, this dog was able to have his cake and eat it too! Or rather…have his treat and eat it too.
In the clip, which was originally uploaded to TikTok, a man places a treat in front of his adorable golden retriever and instructs him to wait while he steps out of the room. The dog watches his owner disappear before quickly eating the treat.
Then, in an absolutely brilliant move, he walks on over to the drawer where the treats are kept, opens it and takes one out. The genius pup then calmly walks back to the table and sets the treat down before shutting the drawer.
The video was re-posted on Twitter by British financier Helena Morrissey. Watch it below:

That incredible, I love the bit where the dog suddenly remembers it hasn’t pushed the draw shut. 😂😂

Some believe the dog was trained to pull of the stunt (which it looks like he was), but either way, it’s super impressive!
We all know this Anne. But it’s still funny and a cat couldn’t do this!
