If you complain enough times, eventually you will get your wish. That’s what a stubborn husky named Zeus learned recently when he demanded that his owner refill his water bowl.
He let off some serious howls and threw the cutest little fit.
Luckily for us animal lovers, the whole moment was caught on video. Now we can laugh at Zeus’s silliness over and over again. Since the hilarious video was posted on YouTube a few months ago, it has been viewed over two million times.
“As usual, Zeus is not shy about telling us what he wants. After several cries and howls, it was discovered that he drank all the water in the bowl and needed a refill,” the video description reads.
Zeus certainly knows how to get everyone’s attention.
What starts as a small squeal quickly becomes a relentless howling. It’s obvious that Zeus is trying to get his owner to look over.
He doesn’t have a bunch of fancy words to use like humans so the only way he has of letting them know what he is thinking is by barking over and over again. He also can point at things and use the power of body language to convey his message.
In this case, he stands with his feet in his water bowl.
It’s a sign that the owners can’t ignore — his bowl is empty. However, even though the woman responds quickly, Zeus continues to howl away.
“As his demands are being met, he’s not shy about expressing his dissatisfaction with his parents,” the video description reads.
According to the YouTube channel’s about page, Zeus is a nine-year-old Siberian husky.
He has been a video star pretty much his whole life. When he was just eight weeks old, he landed his first movie role in Disney’s The Sorcerer’s Apprentice where he starred as a wolf.
“He and his litter mates were in the scene in the subway station where the wolves are turned into puppies!” explains the owner.
That’s where Zeus first learned how to put on a show, and to this day, he is still acting just as wild as ever.
With all of that howling, we imagine that he still thinks that he is part-wolf.
No one ever told him that it was only a movie and that he isn’t actually a member of a wolf pack.
For over a minute in the video, Zeus continues to make loud howling noises over his dissatisfaction with his empty water bowl.
“Tell everybody how neglected you are, so neglected, I know,” jokes the owner in the video.
The pup doesn’t realize that there might be a reason behind why it is taking so long to refill his water. It turns out, it is actually his own fault. He put his dirty feet in the bowl, so now the owner has to wash it.
Meanwhile, Zeus’s brother just watches and laughs at the whole situation.
Luckily, not all dogs are cry-babies.
“Someone call the dog warden and let them know, Zeus went about five minutes without water,” says the owner.
It’s a long time to go without water, but luckily, the owner is on top of the situation.
Plus, there is also food to eat in the meantime while Zeus waits.
Eventually, the owner gets the water bowl filled up and placed back on the ground. It happens very quickly, but Zeus feels like it takes forever.
It’s a lesson in patience for the thirsty husky.
One day, he will have to learn some better manners. However, it’s hard to stay mad at him for long. Yes, he does a lot of begging and whining, but he is just so darn adorable that it’s impossible not to forgive him.
