If you have a dog, you know what it means to chase after them in the streets while your heart is skipping beats like it was an R&B song. Sometimes, all it takes to unleash your dog’s hyperactive double is a lone duck by the pond, sometimes it’s the neighbor dog, but most often, it’s your dog playing the game of their life. That game is called “catch me if you can.”
So when Brian, who goes by the Twitter handle @itsbriancuh, tweeted: “eff a break up, have y’all ever had to chase your dog down the street and they’re thinking it’s a game,” the tweet blew up on social media with 969.8k likes and 156k retweets, and it seemed that dog owners have totally found a safe space to talk about hard things.

Let’s see some of the best tweets about what it is like to chase those clueless and totally reckless four-legged creatures who care about nothing but trolling you. So get your sneakers ready, someone’s gonna run far and scream hard, and it’s not gonna be me, since I’m not yet a dog owner.

Bored Panda reached out to Brian, the author of this viral Twitter thread, who said that the idea for a tweet came as his sister’s dog got out one day. “I had to chase it, but it thought I was playing a game and would just run away from me. Instead of coming back home with me,” he recalled.
It seems like the fact Brian’s tweet blew up on social media has a lot to do with how relatable his experience of chasing after a dog really is. “I think anyone with a pet dog understands what it feels like, because dogs love to play around and sometimes they’ll run away to explore when you leave the house door open,” he said.

And although we are pretty sure that no dog wishes to give his owner a heart attack, as all they wanna do is have some cardio fun running errands, it doesn’t mean it’s not stressful to humans.
Brian believes such canine behavior is “to release energy and to explore the outside world or to mark their territory.” “Yet,” he added, “I honestly don’t know exactly why they run away from the owners that care for them, it’s odd.”
“I was honestly surprised when I saw it went viral, but I guess a lot of other dog owners were able to relate to the tweet,” Brian commented on his tweet amassing 156K retweets, 24K quote tweets, and 969.8K likes.
