Drooling Lab Makes a Mess at Water Bowl

Occurred on March 16, 2023 / Avonmore, Pennsylvania, USA

Info from Licensor: "Bear is a 1-year-old English Labrador. I have been taking pictures and posting videos of him since the day we brought him home. I have so many gorgeous photos of him. But on this particular day, this is the video that got him recognized by a lot of people on Instagram! I was in my kitchen when I caught Bear sitting at his drinking bowl. I thought it was so cute how he was sitting there! As I started to crouch down and record, Bear turns to make eye contact with me and the water he was drinking was just pouring out of his lips! Why didn’t he swallow it? Why was he just allowing it to fall out of his lips like that? It was like waterfalls coming out from both sides of his lips. And of course Bear usually drinks, walks away and leaves behind a trail of water. Bear sitting at the water bowl was just such an unexpected calm start to his day. I originally wanted to get a video of him sitting and enjoying his water. Then the video turned into such a slow, drawn-out, gross, wet, mess! I leave a towel down after I fill his water dish so I can wipe up his spills. So, in the video there is a towel perfectly placed for catching all of the water! I did squeak a little as he walks towards me at the end of the video. Because…ew! Bear is such a sweet, beautiful boy though! Our entire family just adores him. He is so much more than a drooling Labrador! We wouldn’t trade him for the world!"
