It’s funny the ways that our dogs latch onto certain things that we do. Sometimes, it’s a specific toy that becomes a connection between a dog and their favorite human, and other times, it can be a bit more unusual than that. And unfortunately, we are almost always the ones to blame for that!
This particular Husky‘s quirk is that he loves to be screened by the TSA before bed every night, and now that his parents have started doing this bit, they simply can’t stop.
This video that was shared by @fabfitflesch on TikTok on Monday, March 2 shows how this dog is an active participant in a TSA screening (yes, just like at the airport) before he will settle in for the evening.
First, he puts his paws on the bed, and then Dad has to totally pat him down — you know, to check for contraband. The other dog in the fam must think this is a bit much, since they just sat on the bed and watched all of this happening.
“Imagine trying to explain to a dog sitter that our Husky likes to go through TSA before going to bed,” the OP wrote in the video.
And as if that’s not enough, they also revealed that his other quirk involves “blessing” the dog’s food before they serve it to him (naturally).

If you’re a fellow dog parent, you already know that routines and behaviors like this definitely aren’t uncommon — even if the specific routine of a TSA screening before bedtime is a bit unusual.
Commenters also confirmed that this is the truth, including dog sitters who reassured the OP that they wouldn’t bat an eye at a dog taking to something like this. One wrote, “One of the questions I ask before dog sitting is ‘do they do anything weird that I should know about?'”
It’s so funny to see what you end up doing once that dogs latch onto… you never know what’s going to become a part of your daily routine until your dog decides!
