Winston the beagle has gone viral after his owner posted a video on TikTok showing him emotionally invested while watching the Disney movie, 'The Lion King.'
Have you ever wondered what your pet was thinking? For Gabrielle Pelfrey, a resident of Dayton, Ohio, it's apparently easy to tell since her beagle, Winston, often shows his emotions. Pelfrey adopted Winston six years ago when he was eight weeks old and for as long as she could remember, the pup has always been her 'sensitive little guy,' she told Fox News Digital.
The movie that truly sparked a reaction from the pup was Disney's 2019 live-action version of 'The Lion King,' and Pelfrey captured the humorous moment. In the now-viral video, which garnered more than 7.5 million views on Pelfrey's page, @winston_thebeagle, Winston appears to grow sad during some of the heartbreaking scenes in the film. Winston was also captured barking at the movie's villain, to the point when Pelfrey had to hold him back from jumping at the screen.
It’s the holding him back from attacking Scar for me,' one user wrote, to which Pelfrey replied, 'He was set on ripping the screen right off the wall.' 'We’ll never know just how aware our dogs are,' another TikTok user commented. 'Exactly how we watch the movie too,' said a comment posted from the Disney TikTok account.
The Lion King' is not the only movie that appeals to Winston — he loves '101 'Dalmations', 'Beethoven', 'The Grinch', 'Moana' and 'Homeward Bound,' Pelfrey said. ''Homeward Bound' is one of his favorites. He always loses it at the end…It seems like he gets more emotional, I guess, or has a bigger response if it is live action,' she added.
Pelfrey said that Winston also has the ability to pick up on her emotions and offers her comfort. 'If I come home, and it's a bad day for work, he just curls up next to me,' Pelfrey said. 'He's just very intuitive. He's a special guy.' Pelfrey said she is happy that Winston is able to spread joy to people just as he does for her and her husband.
