The video was shared on the Twitter handle named Buitengebieden with the caption, "When you leave your dog alone for a minute." In the 15-second short clip, a black dog is seen standing on its hind legs while sliding a chair skillfully to reach to kitchen's slab where food was kept in a pan. The whole incident was reportedly recorded by the dog's owner.

Recalling an incident about his pet, one user wrote, "This reminds me of our levitating beagle as she could reach food left on the kitchen counter…Once eating an entire roast chicken bones and all. She spent two nights at the vet. I still have the X-rays of the entire carcass in her stomach. P.S.She lived to be over 14 [sic]." "This made me recall the nuns telling us kids that it was sinful to claim that animals had intelligence. Catholic education is incredibly harmful [sic]," wrote another user. Applauding the dog's skill, a user commented, "In scientific communities I believe this would be considered using a tool which shows a higher level of intelligence than your average dog [sic]."

It should be noted here that a number of videos have gone on social media showing a pet outsmarting its owner. Dogs are also considered as one of the first animals ever to be domesticated by animals. While some dogs are used as pets, some also give their services in forces as sniffer dogs.
