Spaniel Puppy Successfully Sneaked Into Dog-Free Hotel In Hilarious Video

A dog owner left internet users in hysterics after sneaking his Sprocker Spaniel puppy into his hotel room.

The animal's owner, Liam, thought to be from the United Kingdom, shared a clip of himself concealing the pup, named Twix, inside his bag hidden underneath a hi-vis jacket as he crept into his room on TikTok.

The footage has been viewed nearly 160,000 times and showed the pooch successfully making it to the hotel room without being detected as the theme tune from Mission: Impossible played over the video.

The clip racked up 15,300 likes and over 250 comments, with one impressed user writing: "Twix understood the assignment" while another said: "Nice one, mission accomplished."

One user joked: "Any advice on how to sneak in a 7th puppy in a hotel? Asking 'for a friend', who works away once a month with a working dog also."

Another said: "Excellent good job. It just had to be a Spaniel. Great dogs with such personality."

"Ya champion, good for you... Our sunnyboy goes everywhere with us," wrote a third user.

The video was captioned: "When the hotel says no dogs allowed", however, Twix's owner later clarified that the hotel had initially advertised as dog-friendly, meaning he had no other choice but to sneak the dog inside.

According to a 2016 survey by the American Hotel & Lodging Association, around 75 percent of luxury, mid-scale, and economy hotels allow pets in their accommodation.

Sprocker Spaniels are a mixed dog, bred from the English Springer Spaniel and the American Cocker Spaniel. Both breeds were bred to work closely with humans and so are highly trainable and obedient.

England's springer-type Spaniels first emerged centuries ago as gun dogs. Dogs described as "cockers" or "springers" were often born in the same litter and so were simply considered the same breed.

Before the 17th-century, Spaniels worked with hunters to hunt their prey with nets, falcons, or bows and continued after the hunting rifle revolutionized the sport.

English and Welsh Springer Spaniels were exhibited as the same breed until 1902 when the Kennel Club recognized the two Springers as separate breeds. The English and Canadian kennel clubs registered American and English as separate breeds beginning in 1940, and the American Kennel Club followed suit in 1946.

American Kennel Club (AKC) Chief Veterinary Officer Dr. Jerry Klein previously told Newsweek that a Clumber Spaniel is among the best breeds to travel with due to their mellow temperament and family-friendly nature.
