This dog video has been on the internet for almost a decade. Despite its age – at least when it comes to viral content online – it has staying power. This dog video has stood the test of time. People are still watching it and leaving comments about it on YouTube decades later. With over 201 million views as of this writing, this film continues to delight more people than live in most countries across the globe.

The video was published to the Talking Animals YouTube channel, which has nearly a million followers. It was one of the first videos on the channel and served to expand it from a small-time operation into a viral content generating machine.

In the amusing video, the dog approaches the camera rather closely and ” talks” to its owner about a variety of things that dogs would be concerned about. The dog is teased about opening the freezer’s meat drawer. He also says a few other hilarious remarks that get the dog going and ranting in an entertaining manner.

When the owner utters the word bacon, the dog’s brows rise. The dog appears to be interested in sampling a bite of that bacon. The owner explains how he removed the maple-flavored bacon from the refrigerator and considered who would enjoy it. Unfortunately for the pooch, its master was the individual who thought someone would want to eat it. With a loud scream of disappointment, the dog reacts.

The dog’s reaction footage lines up perfectly with the back-and-forth conversation between the dog and his owner. And the emotions of the dog’s response are in tune with what the dog conveys through his facial expression and actions.
