Have you ever met a dog that doesn’t get excited when they go on a day trip? Neither have we. How about a dog that doesn’t get excited when they get in the car? Doubtful. Let’s face it; dogs get excited!
Especially these four.
In the video clip, as the journey progresses, the four pups proceed to work themselves into a frenzy. We suspect they know where they are going!
At one point, Tessari decides to have a little fun with the dogs, and he stirs up their excitement by asking them: “Alright y’all, where we going?” But far from provoking an inquisitive silence, Tessari’s question only gets the dogs even more riled up.
One excited dog in a car is quite enough, but four? After being asked where they are going, the dogs burst into a hilarious, synchronized chorus of comical barks and howls. They feed off each other’s excitement so completely that at one point Tessari almost has to pull over to calm them down.
He settles, instead, for hooking his arm behind the passenger headrest to keep his antsy canine companions under control. As the hilarious cacophony continues, a huge grin spreads across Tessari’s face; he’s just as amused as we are, and he knows he’s catching the whole thing on camera.
As the gang nears the park (so that’s where they’re going!), the frantic barking finally dies down. Perhaps the pups are saving their energy for running around in the park. Or perhaps they’re saving their energy for the inevitable cat-and-mouse chase when Tessari tries to round them up to go home again? Dogs will be dogs!
“You taught me many important lessons about life,” he wrote. “You taught me to walk tall in the wind, rain, and snow, but most important of all to just have fun and enjoy every moment in life.”
“Until we meet again, kid,” he concluded, “I will think about you in a positive way and smile.” What better way to remember one of his gang of four than for dog squad leader Tessari to be able to look back on a video like this?
And what an amazing way to unite dog lovers everywhere! If you need a little pick-me-up, or know somebody else whose day needs brightening, then share this video. It’s bound to have the desired effect.
