A pet owner was shocked after he decided to check up on his Doberman pup through surveillance footage only to discover it sweeping the floor with a broom.
The unnamed owner made the remarkable discovery after checking CCTV footage from his house in Hebei Province, in northern China.
Curious to see what the dog had been up to while alone at home on 26th October, he had not expected to find it had been cleaning.
In the video, shared later on Douyin, China’s version of TikTok, the playful Doberman is seen dressed in a white and blue puppy jersey and holding a broom in its mouth by the handle.
As it dragged along the broom, it simultaneously swept the floor with it in all corners of the home.
The dog almost seemed like it was with a set purpose as it even reached beneath the sofa and under the kitchen table with the broom.
It attracted widespread attention on Douyin, with numerous netizens praising its diligence.
One user titled ‘Xiaoyaner’ commented: “Parents: Who will take care of you when you get old? – Me: Please watch the surveillance video.”
User ‘_Ono’ said: “Don’t let my mother see this.”
And ‘Xixi is growing up’ wrote: “Dog: This family will fall apart without me.”
