A dog owner has gone viral for capturing her older dog’s heartbroken expression at being left indoors when she took her puppy outside to use the bathroom.
AnnaRose Carter and her boyfriend, Dylan Balser, are the proud owners of two dogs, Paddington and his new puppy brother Montgomery. Known as Paddy and Monty for short, Carter has both a TikTok and an Instagram account dedicated to their antics, and recently caught a brilliant moment between the brothers.
“Paddy lived such a quiet, peaceful, calm life until a few weeks ago,” Carter told Newsweek. “Monty doesn’t stop trying to play with him and he definitely looks up to his older brother.”
But sibling rivalry is real and the video shows the reality of raising a puppy while also caring for an older dog.
Shared to her TikTok @along_came_monty on October 5, it shows the tiny pup sniffing around on the grass before the camera pans to show their family home. Visible in the window is Paddy, staring out at his owner and brother outside without him.
Monty the puppy was going outside for toilet training. His older brother, Paddy, was left inside.

“The drama when you take one dog out and not the other,” Carter wrote in the clip.
And TikTok users loved it, with the video boasting over 53,000 likes and 600,000 views.
“Now why would you do that,” one user wrote, with another joking: “He’s gonna change the locks before you get back.”
Another pointed out “the BETRAYAL,” while one said: “You’ve crossed the line, and there’s going to be consequences.”
While some worried Carter was showing “favoritism” between the dogs, others pointed out that, as a puppy likely in toilet training, Monty would have to go out much more often than his older brother.
Paddy’s brilliant expression led the clip to go viral. Their owner is confident he will soon love his puppy brother as much as they do.

Puppies urinate often, sometimes over 12 times a day, according to Purina. Puppy owners are advised to take the puppy out every hour, including after waking up, eating or drinking.
Carter, who lives in Cleveland, Ohio, told Newsweek that Paddy only “just recently” gained a brother in Monty and, while he can sometimes get “very annoyed” by the puppy’s antics, she and her boyfriend are confident he “will learn to love Monty just as much” as they do.
“My favorite thing about my dogs is how much they fill my day with joy and endless laughter,” she said.
“Watching them together reminds me to find happiness in the little things—they’re my daily dose of love and laughter! I didn’t have dogs until I met my boyfriend and I can’t imagine my life without them.”
