    Dogs are naturally driven by a sense of purpose and a need for belonging, which are all part of their instinctual pack behavior. When a dog has a job to do, it taps into its needs for structure, purpose, and the feeling of contributing to its pack, which in a domestic setting translates to its human family.

    But let’s be honest: In a traditional domestic setting, dogs have fewer chores they can do as they would on a farm or as part of a rescue unit. A doggy mom in Vancouver Island, Canada had fun with her dog’s purposeful uselessness by sharing the 5 “chores” her pitbull-Lab mix does around the house.


    The mom says Rhubarb has chores because “we didn’t raise a freeloader.”

    No freeloaders on my watch 🙅🏻‍♀️

    Here are 5 “chores” that Rhubarb has mastered.

    1. Makes sure the laundry doesn't get cold

    Translation: Sits on top of the clean laundry, ready to be folded.

    2. Unlicensed therapist

    Translation: Gives us kisses when we're tired or feeling down.

    3. Supervise repairs

    Translation: She gets in the way when you're in a compromised, uncomfortable position with a wrench in your hand.

    4. Alerts us when there's an intruder

    Translation: Stands at the window and barks furiously at the mailman.

    5. Keeps mum's spot warm

    Translation: Lays in her spot on her favorite chair in the living room.

    The video inspired some funny responses in the comments.

    “He’s carrying that household on his back. Give him a raise,” Tatiana, Esq. wrote. “Obviously the most valuable member of the household,” DJTrainor51 added.
