A clingy Rottweiler turned a routine neighborhood walk into a funny loyalty test with both parents nearby. In the clip, Dyce refuses to budge when Dad handles his pet lead, then changes instantly once Mom steps in and takes control.
The sweet moment came from a video by @dycederottweiler on Instagram, where the big pup made his preference impossible to miss. What starts as a stalled walk by the canal becomes hilarious proof that this dog knows exactly who he wants leading the way.
Dog will walk only if mom holds the leash
Shared one day ago, the reel showed Dyce stopping on a sidewalk while Dad held him during a walk. The on-screen text read, “Won’t walk unless mom holds the leash. Part 2.” Mom then reached forward, Dad passed over the dog leash, and the mood changed immediately. The caption, “And… go,” matched the payoff. The post also pulled 35.8K likes and 249 comments, as of the time of writing.
Dyce’s behavior looked less like stubbornness and more like selective comfort. Rottweilers often form very close bonds and can become deeply attached to one person in a household. That likely explains why he looked unsure with Dad, then relaxed as soon as Mom stepped in. Even before moving, his eyes seemed fixed on Mom, as if waiting for the only answer he wanted. The pooch’s fluffy build and serious face only made the moment funnier.
The reel first showed the dog planted near a grassy stretch, staring back at Dad instead of walking. A close-up then caught his round, almost offended expression. After that came the leash handoff, with Mom taking the dog leash while Dad stepped aside. Once she had it, Dyce trotted forward beside her with a happy bounce. The sudden switch sold the whole joke.
Fans replied fast and loved how obvious the favoritism looked. One wrote, “He is a Mama’s boy.” Another joked, “It’s simple: wherever you go, he goes.” More viewers added, “Hey he loves his mom,” and, “His whole attitude switched up.”
