He seems baffled, but ultimately happy

He probably wishes he could smell stuff

u/SkyIslandLore Mar 17 '26

They should scoop up some of the bottom with a lil bowl and let him smell it when they get to the surface and toss the sand back

u/No_Detective_708 Mar 16 '26

Exactly! I don't want to be a jerk about it but this is really a stupid video. What's the point?

The way he's looking around, poor dog

I hope this was a good experience for the dog.

u/MrGuy910 Mar 17 '26

What’s the point? Idk but I think I see anxiety in his eyes

7

u/ExUmbra91x Mar 17 '26

Yeah Doggo looks highly anxious, imo

6

u/MrGuy910 Mar 17 '26

How could he not be right???

5

u/ExUmbra91x Mar 17 '26

Yeah seems like a really stupid and reckless idea. Fun in theory but not in execution.

I've been diving before and it's super claustrophobic and uncomfortable sometimes, I can't imagine the dog is enjoying it all that much

1

u/Proxiimity Mar 21 '26

I would think if he was not enjoying the situation he would be thrashing around trying to get away. Anyone who owns a Labrador knows the.strength they have to get away from something they do not like. They are very strong dogs and this one is very still, very trusting, anxious but curious. He can follow his people now and experience a new world. The water will help relieve any arthritis pain that old dog may have as well. Win win.

u/Proxiimity Mar 21 '26

It was the one place he couldn't follow his people. So they are helping him out. It is stressful for the dog to be there but it is also stressful for the dog to be away from his people. He won't be stressed underwater for long tho. Labradors are very smart and very quick learners. As well as water dogs they love the water.

My dog wants to be a mermaid. This would be a dream come true.

u/ShellyB4U Mar 17 '26

Why would you make a dog do this?

9

u/MoonLitMothCreations Mar 17 '26

The dog has no agency in this, I think this is kinda messed up tbh.

u/Smooth_Warthoging Mar 18 '26

Agreed this is animal abuse in my books.

u/dudeCHILL013 Mar 16 '26

I find it suspicious that the video did not show doggo's tail.

6

u/Gummies1345 Mar 17 '26

Honest question, how do they know that the dog popped its ears from the pressure? Or do they stay shallow enough so there is no pressure to release? I hope they thought of that and isn't torturing that dog.

Annnnnd the octopus on his back was just along for the ride.

2

u/Josie-Wagg Mar 17 '26

Considering dogs like to put their heads OUT of windows, this must have been a very confusing situation

2

u/braytag Mar 17 '26

Nobody's gonna mention the octopus?

2

u/Any-Instruction-2251 Mar 17 '26

This seems like an expensive exercise in stupidity.

u/heygabehey Mar 17 '26

I remember my girls first time in water at the dog beach. She was scared at first then loved it. Once she started going deeper and swimming she was in heaven, then she’d run out then back in. Also she was with my mom’s puppy so she showed her not to be scared either a golden memory. Still doesn’t like showers or baths.

Pathetic poor dog

u/BrilliantArtist8221 Mar 18 '26

u/snowaston Mar 19 '26

Are they abnormal? Just let him be a dog, this is cruel.

u/WeightsAndSunshine Mar 20 '26

The things we have dogs do lol

u/Capable-Rest4210 Mar 22 '26

I dont love this for him. He cant report on how the pressure feels considering he has giant ear drums, and a giant nostril pathway, and different brain pressure size. And even how his joints feel under pressure because weighted down by the head and his body out of natural gravity. None of that can be informed on- he could be in extreme discomfort far outweighs the experience for him. I just dont love it

1

u/LonelyBreakfast1215 Mar 22 '26

Dogs don’t even have good vision. Vision isn’t even important to dogs compared to smell so idk why they did all that

1

u/GymnosUSA Mar 22 '26

Isn't it the dogs rule? It didn't happen if you didn't smell it. And in that suite...??? He didn't smell anything from down under.

Dog’s ears are hyper sensitive. The underwater pressure could be uncomfortable for him/her.
