Frenchies may have tiny bodies, but don’t you dare let that fool you. A Frenchie has just as much sass in its body as you have in yours.
One mom decided to play a prank on her Frenchie on Monday, November 6th, and she was not prepared for the backlash:
@maliamakaila Update: he still hasnt moved. 🤣 #fyp #dogsoftiktok

Maria Makaila better free this man! What if he’s still standing there?

In the video, she lays a square of tape onto the floor and sets him in it. Pretty much immediately, confusion sets in, and something strange happens: he’s stuck here.
Of course, we as humans understand that he can just step over the tape. However, dogs’ brains don’t quite work that way: they see that barrier and, for some reason, believe that something has happened and they can’t move. The actual thought process is unexplainable, but there could be a few reasons:
- The dog hates tape and the way it feels on his paws.
- Depth perception issues cause the dog to see a gap between the tape and the floor.
- It feels like it has to stay there because you put it there.
Whatever the case, most pets are easily bamboozled with this little trick: even cats will sit when taped into a box. After a while, they’ll probably catch on and get bored of it, but it will fool them for a second. While that can be funny, you should also not let it go on for too long – stressing out your pup is not nice at all!
Dogs don’t hold grudges – odds are, this little guy got a treat and got over it in just a few minutes. If anyone has a really big dog to try this on, please let us know how it goes – I bet that would be positively hilarious!
