A video posted by @baotheweenie features Bao, a Dachshund puppy who appears determined to take on as many roles as possible. It opens with on-screen text that reads, “I thought I was getting a dachshund puppy, but instead I got…” From there, the footage takes viewers through a series of playful scenes that highlight Bao’s many “jobs.”

Dog loves to work around the house in viral video

In one moment, Bao is cast as a “mechanic” as he carefully pulls tools out of a bag. The video then cuts to him sitting neatly like a loaf of bread, before switching gears again as he digs enthusiastically in the dirt like a dedicated “gardener.” Each short clip adds a new layer to Bao’s personality. It shows how his everyday puppy behavior has been turned into a series of amusing character roles.

The fun continues as Bao curls himself up into a tight ball, earning the nickname “pretzel.” Later, he sprawls out in bed, likened to a bedbug. In another scene, he’s caught stealing his mom’s jeans and running off with them. This prompts his owner to jokingly label him a kleptomaniac. The video also shows Bao hopping through the snow like a “snow bunny,” and racing through the house like a “racecar.”

In the caption, Bao’s owner says they hadn’t realized adopting Bao meant welcoming such a wide range of personalities. They note that Dachshunds are known for being expressive and full of character. They conclude by saying that Bao’s silly, goofy behavior has quickly become a daily source of laughter for them.

Viewers were quick to share their reactions in the comments. One person joked that Bao looked like an “expert gardener,” while another simply called him “a 100% cutie pie.” Others praised his wide range of “skills,” with one commenter noting that Dachshunds are special dogs in so many ways.
