A social-media video that captured a dog's face at the moment he realized that his owner's new puppy is not just a visitor, and that he's here to stay, has left the internet in hysterics.

"Opie was the only child for the first three years of his life," Opie's owner, Diana Alvarez, told Newsweek. "We just got a husky puppy, and Opie loved him for the first few days. He would interact and play with him at first. Now that one month has gone by, Opie is definitely over being a big brother, again!

"The new husky has a lot of puppy energy and will sometimes just lay on Opie's bed or start squeaking toys and being an all-round rambunctious little guy. All jokes aside, they do get on well and even snuggle together," Alvarez added. The content creator owns four male dogs who all "love to play and share toys."

Despite Opie's warmth towards his new sibling, the unamused face he pulled when he clocked that he's here to stay has resonated with millions of TikTok users.

The viral video, which shows Opie's less-than-impressed expression as his puppy sibling plays in front of him, has been viewed by over 2.5 million users since it was first shared to TikTok on November 28. The post has been captioned: "Opie is wondering where the receipt is."
