Dogs Have Very Different Ideas About Welcoming Mom Home

Living with two dogs of the same breed can be quite an experience, especially when they each have their own unique way of showing affection. A viral social media post offers a perfect example, capturing the hilarious difference between how a female and a male dog welcome their mom home.

Instagram user @junebernese shared the wholesome moment featuring June and Gus, two Great Pyrenees. The page captures the shenanigans of the “Two gentle giants in the making.”

Girl dog and boy dog react differently when mom comes home

In the video, June, the female dog, and Gus, the male dog, show off completely different ways of welcoming their mom home. Both Great Pyrenees are clearly thrilled to have their paw parent back, but each has a very different way of expressing that excitement.

June practically loses herself with happiness, energetically wiggling her body as her mom approaches. She softly barks and taps her paws while eagerly waiting to be greeted. Her owner lovingly pets her, but the excited pup quickly grabs her hand.

June gently bites her mom’s hand as another way of showing affection. She continues nibbling while innocently staring at her owner, who seems to understand exactly what her furry baby wants. She responds by giving June some gentle scratches around her nose. The adorable interaction makes it seem as though June is reminding her paw parent not to leave her alone again and to give her all the attention.

Meanwhile, Gus has a completely different reaction to his sister’s energetic welcome. The male pup opts for a much calmer greeting, simply sitting on the ground and patiently waiting for his mom to turn her attention toward him.

After freeing her hand from June’s affectionate grasp, the dog mom walks over to Gus and gently caresses him. He quietly reciprocates the affection, enjoying the reunion in his own laid-back way.

Gus even glances over at his sister, who is still making her feelings known and demanding more attention from their human. The hilarious contrast between the two dogs’ personalities made the wholesome video a hit with viewers.

Netizens shared their reactions in the comments, with one writing, “Sooooooo much love that she wants to swallow mom.” Another user wrote, “They’re so cute.” One more netizen commented, “My dog boy greets me just like this.”
