Can you believe that there are people out there who don’t want a senior pup? It’s strange but it’s true! That’s why one dog walker makes it her mission to give her senior clients a little extra motivation. A little confidence boost, one could say. The woman likes to hype her older dogs up on their walks together. And a video shows a senior German Shepherd loving every minute of it.
No matter how old your dog is, they’re still a puppy on the inside. Brianne makes it her mission to let that inner puppy out and it totally works.
Maybe all senior pups need a hype woman like Brianne here. The dog walker is such a good cheerleader. She knows exactly what to say to motivate a dog to run and run.
“You’re so fast!” the woman said from behind the camera. She was talking to a GermanShepherd she was walking, who seemed to be taking her positive vibes in.

“He’s the fastest one! Oh my god, slow down! He’s gonna crash!” she added. Woahhh, slow down there, buddy. You don’t want to get hurt.
The German Shepherd was positively eating it up. You can tell the dog was moving faster and faster.
“My favorite thing is hyping up my senior pals,” the woman shared in the text overlay.
People in the comments section were absolutely smitten. They loved the way this dog walker thought.
“AND THE BEST PART IS THEY BELIEVE YOU. We don’t deserve dogs,” wrote one person.
“I used to hype up my senior dog all the time. It was so dang cute and funny what he would do,” added another person.
“What was this a video of? I only see like a speck of blurry lightning, it’s too fast to see,” teased another commenter.
While someone else gave the dog walker her much deserved props: “You’re a sweet soul, don’t ever let the chaotic world take that from you,” they praised.
