Hysterics Over Puppy's Antics When Owner Left The Room For Just '2 Minutes'

Dogs never fail to delight their owners with their funny antics, and this dog, who was recently caught sneaking into a kitchen bin for food, is no exception.

The dog was captured stuck head-first in a large kitchen bin. Most of his body appeared to be stuck inside the bin as the pup hung from the ground with his tail wagging in the air while he scoured for any leftover food.

The video, which has some profanity, has been captioned: "I left the room for 2 minutes."

"According to the comments my dog hasn't even seen a piece of kibble in his life," the dog's owner and the original poster on TikTok said in the comments section.

Scavenging is a common trait in dogs that stems from their ancestral days, but there are ways it can be prevented at home. The American Kennel Club (AKC) writes on its website that owners should try to make sure that nothing, not even crumbs, are left on surfaces or counters to stop any pups from feeling the temptation to beg or steal.

It added that owners dealing with cheeky pups who have a tendency to invite themselves into the kitchen and hunt for food should invest in a way of shutting their dog off from the kitchen.

"Keep the dog out of the kitchen using a baby gate, or put in him a crate or behind a shut door," the AKC wrote.
