Every family lunch has that one guest who doesn’t say much and is only there for the food. For the humans behind the Instagram account @olliethetripodcorgi, that guest is Ollie. This Corgi knows staying out of sight has its benefits, namely, the food offerings from above. Also, he knows exactly where to sit to catch any stray scraps that might fall. According to his bio, Ollie is a tripod Corgi with plenty of “SASSitude,” and that energy somehow comes through even while he’s sitting completely still beneath a tablecloth.
Owner captures Corgi hilariously waiting for food ‘offerings’
The scene opens with a group gathered around the lunch table while a lively conversation fills the air. You can hear the clanking of cutlery against plates as everyone enjoys their meal. Suddenly, the camera shifts away from the people to reveal the real action happening near the floorboards. The on-screen text notes that the under-the-table troll is simply waiting for his “offerings.”
Right in the center of the frame, Ollie appears tucked behind the fringe of the tablecloth. He sits so still that he actually looks like a little statue staring directly up at the source of the delicious smells. His eyes are wide, expectant, and full of hope as he demands his fair share of the feast. His owner mentioned that those “pathetic puppy dog eyes” are currently engaged at 100 percent power.
His tiny nose wiggles every few seconds because he can definitely smell everything on the menu. In fact, he does not move an inch even when the camera lens gets closer to his face. The Corgi seems to be willing to play the long game, and so he sits patiently waiting for the food offerings to appear. He keeps his gaze locked on the edge of the table just in case.
As of the time of writing, over 2.4k people have liked the clip because most pet parents recognize that level of persistence. One viewer pointed out that while the owner calls the look pathetic, it is actually a very resourceful move. Another fan joked that the snack delivery will definitely happen eventually.
