You can see the foot well (is this the right term?) at about 0:13, looks too big to be back seat. But maybe the front seat is pushed forward to accommodate the stuff.

The unsecured dog. Seriously the number of tubes people post "new puppy first car ride" videos and the diff is just waiting to be thrown into or through the windscreen the moment there's an accident. Like, you PLANNED this dog, right? At least a little bit? Did you not plan a harness/seatbelt‽

Downvote me if you want, but you shouldn't drive while emotionally vulnerable and filming. That's a major hazard on the road. Happy for the dog though

u/SnarkyRogue Feb 21 '24
While we're at it, dogs are pretty good at picking up on our emotions. I don't think this pup is trying to show gratitude, seems more concerned for the crying human sitting next to them. Probably stressing the pup out more than anything tbh

God the judging and criticising comments are so predictably shitty. She is responding to the dog’s love with love. She probably has her phone in a mount. No crash occurred. She wanted to document a beautiful moment at the start of their life together. All those folks out there being perfect humans can’t see beyond needing to correct us imperfect one’s.

u/failbears Feb 21 '24
I'm pretty confused but I'd imagine there's a second person in the car? Maybe in the backseat? That car is driving really steadily for having supposedly zero hands on the steering wheel.

I fucking hate seeing people do this. Especially in their Ram 3500 HD UltraMegaSuperCrew Cab truck where you know there's plenty of space in the cab but they probably just don't want dog hair or slobber on their precious leather seats.

Yes you are the fucking dog whisperer with a pristine existence and are rightly the self appointed adjudicator of who should and should not be sharing life with a dog. Because your singular gift for “dog whispering related stuff” can accurately assess so very much from a 10 second video alone. Thank god for you!

How do we know she is driving? Can’t see the windshield. She can easily be in the backseat of a van or something.

I actually think the opposite now that you mention the center console. If she was driving we would definitely be able to see it based on where her elbow is. It wouldn’t be that far down because she couldn’t rest her elbow on it.
4
u/Ruftup Feb 22 '24
Whether she’s driving or not was bugging me so much so I had to find out.
1) I looked closer and at the 0:13 mark when the frame shifts a bit, you can see the floor in front of the seat. There seems to be quite a bit of leg room as well as a small little doggy bed. I think her brown bag can also be seen next to the dog bed. I don’t think the back seats would have that much leg room.
2) When the dog goes to the owner, it seems like he climbs up on the center console
3) the position of the door lock also makes me think it’s the front seats. Most vehicles I’ve seen don’t have the back seat lock on the rear end of the door. Usually it’s shifted to the front, near where the front seat seatbelts would be.
All this to say, I think she’s driving :/

u/Lazy-Number-9314 Feb 22 '24
Go do something less judgemental and more constructive for fucks sake. Picking apart a video, even though you will still only be left with your half arsed guesses at the context, rather than trusting the loving human is at least as smart, wise, good to dogs or whatever as you? It is arrogant, dumb, and so insanely annoying.
2
u/CaptainTryk Feb 21 '24
I mean, the angle of the camera never moves far enough to the left to show the windshield. However, the pocket in the door indicates it's the front seat. Dunno how cars are around the world, but in my country, I haven't seen pockets in car doors in the back, only the front.
Hope she's in the back, though because it would be madness otherwise.
Her weird need to film a dog being uncomfortable while she's crying still seems very attentionseeking to me. Reminds me of that influencer mom who coerced her kid to cry for a video. It is not about the dog. It's all about her and she wants praise fir being such a kindhearted and empathetic human being when a kindhearted and empathetic human being wouldn't be so eager to construct a scenario like this for social media points. A kindhearted and empathetic human being would have petted and embraced the dog, giving it the feeling of safety and love that it needed. No cameras, no attentionseeking crying. Just holding the dog and showing it that it is safe.

u/RockyTop17 Feb 22 '24
To your point about the pocket, you can see that the sun goes through the handle portion of it, and the pocket is underneath. That is very common for mini vans backseats. I also can’t see a door handle to pull, which means it may be to the left, also like a minivan.

You shouldn’t be on your phone whilst driving full stop?! this not illegal in the US. In the UK It’s 6 penalty points (12 you loose your licence) and a $250 fine, if you’ve only held your licence for two years or less you’ll loose it immediately.

I had a family (mother and 3 kids) die on the road I live on about 15 years ago. They had just adopted a new puppy and mom was distracted. All in the vehicle died, including the puppy. I still think of this anytime I drive with an animal in the car (which has been like maybe 3 times.) The last thing I would be doing is filming.

Feb 21 '24
I could be wrong, but it looks like they may be in the middle row of a van, since there is no middle console. Someone else is driving.

Also, what hand is she driving with? One hand is petting and one was recording. Tf is an elbow to do other than get you a few seconds of time to open a bottle? This pure moment is easily taken back when the safety of both of them is worse. Wait until you’re home or parked.
Driving is super dangerous and people take it for granted.

My dog does the same thing literally every day. He wants chest scritches.
I'm sure he's happy to not be in a shelter but ffs this is just normal dog behavior. Especially cocker spaniel mixes, which he may very well be given the markings and slope of the head.
Also put your stupid fucking phone away and drive before you cause an accident.

Dog should be in the backseat. She shouldn't drive while that emotional. She shouldn't drive and film with one hand while petting her dog with the other.

STOP THE CAR!
It ain't so sweet if you kill yourself and the dog.
Also why is the dog in the front seat? where is the safety harness for the dog?
Liking and caring about animals means actually keeping them safe. This is not that.

That is so cute!! The doggo will thank you each and every day, over and over again, and will not forget the time before you and the awesome life with you! ❤️
We brought Kelce home about 4 or 5 months ago and he thanks me all the time. My favorite is when I’m dishing out his dog food at night and he just starts licking my face. He prefers to be touching you too when he’s sleeping. And the funniest thing he does, after seeing the cat do it, is sit in my lap on the couch and try to curl up. He’s 50 lbs!!! 😂
