Most dog owners have wondered at some point what their pets do when left home alone. For one woman, curiosity led her to set up cameras around the house to find out what her beloved black Labrador, Sundae, got up to in her absence. What she discovered left her saying, “I’m never leaving her alone again.”
Instead of lounging on the bed or exploring the house, Sundae had a single focus: waiting for her mom to come back home. The footage revealed the loyal pup walking over to the door and sitting there patiently—staring, listening, and hoping—until her favorite person returned.
The realization tugged at her owner’s heartstrings. While leaving is sometimes unavoidable, it’s hard not to feel a pang of guilt knowing how much our furry friends miss us. Dogs like Sundae remind us of the unshakable loyalty and love they have for their humans, a bond that knows no bounds.
The video, shared under the handle @sundaetheblacklab, quickly went viral, resonating with dog lovers everywhere. Set to the poignant tune “Home” by Edith Whiskers, the clip captures the emotional depth of the human-dog relationship in a way words simply can’t.
If nothing else, Sundae’s touching wait is a reminder to cherish every moment with our pets. They truly make our homes feel complete.
