Tired Basset Hound Catches a Ride in 'Smartypants' Way

A basset hound pup really got its teeth into the problem of what to do when you’re too tired to continue with a beach walk.

This cartoonish footage was recorded by Kyla Andrewsmcnew and shows Kiki holding on tight to Andrewsmcnew’s trousers as she’s dragged along the sand at South Jetty Beach in Florence, Oregon. A wagging tail suggest Kiki sees nothing wrong with this arrangement.

Andrewsmcnew published the footage to Instagram where she labelled Kiki a “smartypants” and wrote: “She was tired… what can I say”? Credit: Kyla Andrewsmcnew via Storyful
