It seems that man’s best friend is not just a great companion, but also a handy co-pilot! A TikTok video by user Frankie Watts (@truckdoguk) has taken the internet by storm, showcasing her bloodhound Deirdre’s remarkable ability to assist with checking sideview mirrors while on the road.

In the clip, Watts, manoeuvring through a narrow residential lane lined with parked cars in the UK, asks Deirdre to check her side mirror for any obstructions. Deirdre obediently turns, looks out of the window, and gives a nod, indicating that the way is clear. This heart-warming demonstration of Deirdre’s road-safety awareness has amassed over 775,000 views since it was posted on May 23.

Bloodhounds, known for their impressive detective skills and keen sense of smell, prove once again that they are more than just hunting companions. Deirdre’s show of intelligence and acute understanding of her owner’s command reaffirms the fact that these dogs are more than meets the eye.
