Waking a sleeping dog can often be a challenging task for pet owners. Some resort to the clinking sound of a leash or entice the pup with savory treats. However, one savvy dog owner has captivated the internet by uncovering a distinctive method to wake his dozing companion.

In an amusing video shared by TikTok user @thatpowerwashguy, the tuckered-out dog is seen snoozing on a cozy couch. Despite several efforts by the owner to gain the attention of the sleepy dog, only one word sparks a reaction in the canine, what the owner charmingly refers to as “the magic word.”

At the utterance of “Frisbee,” the dog’s eyes slowly open. He is clearly too exhausted to lift his head, but he gazes at his owner expectantly after hearing his favorite word.

The video has certainly won over the hearts of social media users. In just a few days, the clip has collected more than 775,800 views and an impressive 181,200 likes on TikTok.

Despite our wishful thinking, it’s important to remember that our pets don’t fully comprehend our conversations nor can they partake in them.

As noted by VCA Animal Hospitals, “dogs can understand familiar words, such as ‘sit,’ ‘stay,’ or ‘walk’ because they hear them frequently and build associations with those words.”

When a pet owner mentions food, dogs might recognize the cue and move towards their bowl, having associated the word with their feeding time.

Interestingly, our pets seem to understand more from our tone and body language than from the actual words we use. They keenly interpret physical cues, body movements, and facial expressions.

For instance, you could praise your dog using the fanciest words, but if your tone is bland and your face expressionless, they won’t perceive it as praise. Instead, it’s more effective to express meaning through tone and body language to communicate with dogs.

The viral video of the dog and his “Frisbee” wake-up call has brought laughter to many internet users.
