Forgetful Dog's Reaction to Thinking He's an 'Orphan' Has Internet Howling

Internet users have been left in stitches after a woman shared her dog's hilarious reaction every time he thinks she's left him alone.

Photos of a Shih Tzu mixed breed waiting on a bench. A viral TikTok video of a similar dog crying for its owner has amassed more than 49 million views already.

TikTok user @bigwendyyy posted the video of her dog, Bear, running outside and erupting into a screeching cry as he thinks she's left him yet again. Written across the video, the caption reads: "Every morning he forgets where the door is and then cries when he thinks he's an orphan."

Despite trying to call out to Bear from a few feet away to console him, his owner doesn't get his attention because of his loud crying. Bear runs back and forth as he thinks he's been abandoned by his owner once more.

Many TikTok users have enjoyed Bear's dramatic reaction in the video, with 49.7 million views since the clip was posted on February 6. However, there are ways of helping an anxious dog cope with being left alone.

Thankfully, with more than 9.6 million likes on the video, many TikTok users support Bear's agonizing theatrics. One user commented on the video: "He looked at you and still walked away."

Other people enjoyed the dog's melodrama, with another person writing: "He's screaming, he's like I'm never gonna find her again."
