The relationship between animals and kids is beautiful. Adults are often scared of animals, but when it comes to children, they don’t have any inhibitions, so they enjoy themselves around pets and vice versa.
The same is clear in this video posted on Instagram by @katiebrimbledimble where a child is being taught by her parents how to interact with the pets. A 3-year-old girl can be seen feeding her dogs and teaching them to “say grace” is so wholesome.
The video is captioned “Three years old: learning how to interact with animals by managing her own energy to manage theirs” and has about 6 million views.
The video is filmed by the father and it begins with the child carrying food trays for her pets. The dogs get excited after seeing their food. The girl confidently opens the door and goes out and tells the three dogs, “Say grace.” After a few seconds of excitement, the dogs obey the child and calmly sit down. She then distributes the food trays among them.
The 3-year-old claps twice and then stops and claps again and says, “Amen.” The dogs can be seen patiently waiting until she says ‘amen’ to begin eating their food. Toward the end of the video, the child, after finishing her duties, jumps back into her house and shuts the door.
The dad can be heard telling his daughter, “Good job.” Pointing at the camera, she asks him, “Can I see it?”

People on social media were stunned by the way the child behaved with her pets. @27paisleys commented, “As a dog trainer, there is nothing that brings me more joy than seeing a child, especially her age, knowing how to treat animals. Kudos to Mom and Dad.” @peteripeberu wrote, “Bruh how is this child more coordinated than me? I would’ve 100000% dropped those bowls.”
@smooshingpumpkins expressed, “‘Say grace’ as a wait for food and ‘amen’ as a break command is hilarious; I gotta do that.” @imwillhowell shared, “Well done. Great parenting. Excellent dog training.
A+” @simoneroland3 commented, “Congratulations to the parents who educate their daughter to cope with dogs, big dogs. Such education will avoid serious accidents involving dogs and children, dogs being unfairly considered responsible.”
