Meet Pituco, a dog from Brazil who goes to the store alone every day to get his food. It takes canine independence to a whole new level.
“Everybody knows Pituco,” Agro Pet shop’s vet told The Dodo. “His food is on the top shelf, so we have to hand it to him. He barks until we do.”
As soon as the dog has his food, he walks right back home. It’s not like the shop gives Pituco his food for free, though. As soon as the dog gets something, Agro Pet puts it on a bill. When the dog’s owners come by, they pay.
Like a good boy, Pituco doesn’t just care about himself and his food. Pituco’s humans sometimes call Agro Pet and ask for cat food or birdseed for their other pets. Pituco is always happy to go to the store and bring the food back home for the other pets in the family.
Pituco, what a clever boy you are! You are so smart! I think we’re all in love with this dog now.
Do you believe your dog could go shopping by itself if you have one?
