The dog can also be seen sniffing at the portrait in one segment of the video to have a better understanding about why the strange dog in the craft was immobile. He could be seen growing anxious as he moves in circle demarcating the territory. The dog lovers on Twitter flooded Kaitlyn’s post on Twitter leaving hilarious responses about the dog’s behaviour.

Some of the users mentioned the fact that dogs tend to act in this manner when they see an image that they cannot decode, in this case, of himself, that the dog clearly mistakes for another four-legged canine. Others compared the dog’s reaction to Oscar Wilde’s Dorian Grey, stating that this could be one of his reactions seeing the portrait.
