Maltipoo’s Response to Being Told She’s Cute Melts Hearts: ‘Favorite Thing’ [Video]

A dog owner from Arizona called her puppy “cute,” and the canine’s reaction to the compliment has delighted social-media users.

In a viral TikTok video shared in November under the username @anna__combs, the little Maltipoo, named Baby, can be seen looking at her owner while she praises her looks, acting as if she actually knows how pretty she is. “Baby, who told you that you could be so cute? Who told you that you could be this cute? It’s not fair!” her owner can be heard telling her in the clip.

A caption reads: “The way she literally raised her paw like YEAH I AM CUTE I KNOW IT!” Newsweek reached out to @anna__combs for comment. We could not verify the details of the case.

Baby seems to have clearly understood what her owner was talking about. But is that really what happened? Can dogs really understand what we say to them?
