…really the Energizer Bunny in disguise?
…the cutest thing ever?
…a windup toy made in Japan?
…really really hungry for some tasty baby flesh?

A cute dog but, if the dog was formerly the center of the attention in the family–or if other children were–you have to be very careful to monitor their interactions with the new baby in the beginning, because jealously can be a very powerful thing.
Looks like my Cavashon. A mix between a Bijon Frieze and a King Charles Cavalier. Wonderful dog. I think he’s enjoying the belly rub from the bed spread.
I’m sorry. To film that poor dog trying in vain to get on the bed without helping is cruel. I didn’t enjoy that.
It’s easy to miss, but at the very beginning, the dog has a ball in its mouth, which it lets go of at about the 15 second mark; the ball rolls up to the baby and is hidden by the baby’s blanket. Everything after that is the dog trying to get on the bed to retrieve the ball. The tenacity of the little dog in the video is amazing; she or he wants that ball back. The baby on the bed isn’t the goal at all.
My own dog does this with a knotted piece of rope. She has long legs though, and can easily jump on my bed, retrieve her rope, jump down and repeat the behavior.
I don’t see anything cruel about this. Eventually the dog would either give up, or manage to get on the bed. At that point, I’d be worried about the baby as the dog attempts to retrieve the ball.
Doggie aerobics.
did it jump 54 times ? I might have lost count.
Come on, little doggie, come on…just a little bit further!
Did you wonder, as I did, if there was someone lying by the bed who was throwing him up there?

…Really really stupid to fail to Get It, that he can’t get up there, quicker than that?
😀

There’s a great video out there, a good 5+ years old, of a whole bunch of little dogs (Dachshunds and the like) chasing an RC car around a fenced in back yard.
Then there’s this one. Jerry fetches for the machine his MechE owner made for him.
That doesn’t look like a dog failing to get on the bed. The dog should have slipped off, but he looks like he’s jumping on the bed and then jumping off, instead of scrabbling for friction grip on the bedding with his paws.
