North Carolina Woman Checks On Her Dog On Camera, And The Footage Leaves Her In Tears
You know that feeling when you’re heading out the door, your pup gives you that sweet, slightly confused look, and suddenly your heart feels heavy?
That little moment follows you. You spend the rest of the day wondering what they do while you’re gone? Do they sleep? Cause a little trouble?
A woman in Durham, North Carolina, kept asking herself the same questions about her beloved dog, Sundae, a sweet older black Lab.
Sundae is her sidekick and her ride-along buddy.
But of course, errands need running, and Sundae can’t always tag along. Still, something strange kept happening each time Sundae stayed home alone.
Every time her mom returned home, Sundae’s bed would be packed with odds and ends: socks, clothes, even a ChapStick or two.
Almost like a nest made entirely of anything that smelled like her favorite human.
It was puzzling. How did all that stuff end up there? Was Sundae going on secret scavenger hunts around the house?
Curious, her mom decided to set up a small camera to get to the bottom of it.
Not long after, she had to run out for groceries. A perfect moment to put the camera to the test.
As soon as the door closed behind her, her phone pinged. Motion alert. Was Sundae raiding the laundry hamper again? Chewing up some tissues? Not even close.
Sundae had done something completely unexpected.
She quietly walked to the door, curled up on the mat, and settled in to wait. Her expression was soft, almost mournful. No barking, no pacing, just stillness.
She lay there like she was holding her breath until her person came back.
Every time she shifted positions, another alert would go off. And each time, her mom peeked at the footage from the store, her chest tightened with emotion.
In the middle of the grocery aisle, she found herself wiping away tears, watching her sweet girl simply wait.
That touching moment ended up on TikTok and quickly captured the hearts of more than two million people.
Turns out, Sundae’s got more than just one heartwarming moment up her sleeve. This girl knows how to turn heads, too.
She’s got quite the flair for fashion and owns a whole wardrobe. From funky sunglasses to sparkly necklaces, even wigs, her outfits are as bold and fun as her personality.
She struts around proudly, brightening people’s days with her outfits and her charm. People can’t get enough of her fun fashion on TikTok.
So the next time you grab your keys and head out, just think: your pet might be doing more than napping.
They may not understand where you’re going or how long you’ll be gone. But they know one thing for sure: they miss you.
To us, it’s a quick stop at the store. To them, it probably feels like forever.
And when you walk back through that door? That joyful wag, that excited bark, it’s everything. It’s love.
