In a new trend that has the online audience in guffaws, pet owners are depriving their pooches of food, pretending to jump-start a new diet regime, and the expressions of the unpleased pets is winning the internet. The prank involves the owner scaling down the regular quantity of dog food on the scoops with canines longing for kibbles with a heartening and hopeful gaze. While some were stunned at the shrunk diet unable to come to terms that their bowls had a smaller chunk or portion, many others hastily wolfed down the little food offered in a hilarious reaction. 

In one of the dog diet clips trending, an owner stealthily picked one strand of veggie out of a full container and placed it in his pooch’s bowl. “Was not happ [happy] wif Mahm [with me].

Why you do dat to mochi,” said another, as several others poured in laughter emoticons at the confused canine’s reaction to the diet prank.
