A man in Michigan was left in tears when he discovered his dog listening to rapper Kendrick Lamar on his pet cam.
A TikTok video uploaded by @sisterx3apparel captured the moment when the dog seemed to be following the lyrics of Kendrick Lamar’s song “Humble” in the background while the husband checked on their daughter.
Research has shown that music can have a positive effect on dogs. A 2017 study published in the journal Physiology & Behavior observed that dogs are less stressed when listening to music, especially reggae or soft rock.
Dogs have their own musical preferences, as seen in the video from @sisterx3apparel showcasing a dog enjoying rap music.
The dog was paying close attention, even following the command “Sit down” repeated in the song.
Despite hearing the command often, the dog sat down happily while the song played.
The video has garnered over 17 million views, impressing dog lovers worldwide.
Comments like “He has been certified as a good child,” “The dog is so humble. Big respect!” and “When Kendrick speaks, you pay attention” flooded the post.
Another user remarked, “He had to get up and sit because the song was so powerful.”
This is not the only viral video showcasing a pet’s reaction to music.
From a dachshund singing to calm an infant to a dancing dog and a harmonica-loving canine, pets never fail to entertain with their musical responses.
