Master wants puppy to sit: what he does instead delights so many

Tunbridge Wells (England) - So small and already such a great mood booster! Puppy Marlo has only been living with his family in Tunbridge Wells, England, for a few weeks. Originally, his owner Andrew Hall (42) was against having a dog. But he now knows he was wrong. Marlo not only puts his family in a good mood, but also TikTok.

Recently, a video featuring the cute little dog went viral and has enchanted so many users ever since. In it, Marlo is actually only supposed to sit. Hall's son Charlie (21), however, soon can't stop laughing.

While the young Brit waits for Marlo to sit down, he spins around wildly. Finally, the 21-year-old puts the treat, which is meant as a reward for sitting, on the floor.

Then it happens very quickly. Marlo realizes what is at stake and sits down very quickly. Much to the delight of Charlie, who not only leaves him the treat, but also gives him a few cuddles.

A real feel-good video that has now reached almost 400,000 clicks. But Marlo can also be different, as his older master revealedin an interview with Newsweekthis week.

"Within the first two weeks, I taught him to sit, lie down, wait, walk, paw and roll over," explained dad Andrew Hall proudly in an interview with the US magazine.

So Marlo can certainly do it if he wants to - but he obviously didn't want to at the first moment of the video. But now his master is all the more enthusiastic: "This is the best thing we've ever done and we're looking forward to lots of adventures."

Incidentally, the cute four-legged friend won't have to go on them without other dogs. Because Marlo still has plenty of support waiting for him in the form of his siblings.

Hall revealed to the news portal that his brother, brother-in-law and two friends have each had a puppy from Marlo's litter.

What luck for the furry friends, who will now be able to meet again and again for the rest of their lives.
