Blind Dog Mapping Out Backyard to Avoid Obstacles Is Genius

What a smart doggo!

For anyone that has a dog and a backyard, you probably open the back door so your fur baby can run outside and go to the bathroom. It’s a habit at this point. You don’t have to think about it, and you don’t have to watch them too closely. But for dogs with disabilities, owners monitor them. Or so we thought!

TikTok user @jeanie.the.blind.dog is what we like to call a smarty pants. The owner of this blind dog doesn’t have to monitor her as closely because her dog has mentally mapped out the backyard. The dog knows exactly where to go and when to avoid obstacles. It’s absolutely brilliant. Take a look!

O.M.G. We’re absolutely blown away at this genius little dog. And it’s safe to say so are the other 2.1 million TikTokers that viewed this video within the first day of being posted. We bet her owner feels comfortable letting her outside now since she's mastered the layout. They won't have to worry about her getting hurt!

“The little paw. ‘Yep. Just where I thought it was,’” commented @klivesss. Lol aww! Something tells us she’s run into that tree a time or two before remembering exactly where it’s located. So, the paw is just confirming what she already knew. Nothing wrong with that! @martyregal added, “I love that trot putting her paws out front so she doesn’t hit anything.” SAME! It’s the cutest walk we ever did see.

Another TikTok user, @thatonemom001, wrote, “My dog did that by walking in a spiral circle. She mapped our 5 acres! No issues after. Amazing to watch.” What?! That’s absolutely amazing! Dogs are seriously too smart for us.
