Dinner time in this household is never ordinary and Boone the Shepsky makes sure of it. In a viral video posted by @boonetheshepsky the clever rescue pup has already squeezed himself between his human’s arm and chest before the first bite is taken. The on-screen text reads “POV you sit next to the weakest link who always caves and gives you a bite” which sums up the whole scene perfectly. Boone is not dramatically begging. He has simply claimed the spot like it is his assigned seat and the table would feel incomplete without him.
With more than 745000 likes the clip shows just how determined Boone is to score even a tiny scrap. The close up shot captures pure hope radiating from his eyes. He glances at the plate then back at the human he is glued to as if carefully deciding whether patience or persistence will earn him a small taste.
What makes the moment even funnier is his posture. Boone is wedged into that narrow space between arm and ribs and he refuses to move. Only a dog powered entirely by snack motivation would stay in such an uncomfortable position. He holds still like he is part of the dinner setup itself. Then he casually backs out of the gap as if remembering at the last second to act normal.
The comment section delivered its own comedy. One viewer wrote “I can feel the hot dog breath from here bro” which feels unbelievably true. Another joked “This is actually a rare medical condition your armpit grows a dog’s head” which matches his angle perfectly. Many related to the universal battle of resisting a cute face at dinner. One person wrote “You mean I have peas and carrots on my plate and I cannot feed the dog”
In a later clip Boone’s mom admits the truth everyone already suspected. She says “Apparently I am the weakest link and he knows it” and Boone absolutely agrees.
