What did Reddit users say about this video of the well-behaved dog?

“I grew up with a German Shepherd that wasn’t allowed in the kitchen at meal times. She would lie on the carpet with one paw on the tile floor. His way of saying ‘I’m in the kitchen, whatcha gonna do about it?’ She was an amazing, cheeky dog,” posted a Reddit user. “She will get her revenge,” joked another. “For a second I thought she was wearing a bib in anticipation of the meal,” added a third.

“I wonder if you got a bone or a special toy that she can only play with when you are cooking if that might distract her a little more? You can praise her for ‘good sitting’ and ‘staying’ when you finish and give her a small taste or treat or play ball as a reward afterwards. She’s coping pretty hard here not to beg, but she is pulling heartstrings with how adorable and expressive she is in trying to resist breaking this rule. To which, the original poster wrote, “Oh, she’s fine. She was just waiting for the apple that I was preparing. We ate late today, and she was like, ‘Where’s my food?’. Usually, she’s in one of her 3 beds at mealtime.”
