The German Shepherd is one of the most popular dog breeds in the United States.

In addition to getting along well with their families, they are also favored by the military and become excellent guard dogs.

This large animal, also known as the Alsatian, was used to search and rescue people from the ruins of the World Trade Center after the 9/11 terrorist attacks, and even reached the status of a national hero.

Therefore, when a German Shepherd sees that his owner seems to be attacked by a vacuum cleaner, the pet of course decides to intervene.

In a video shared to TikTok by an account named Novikovsv, the video has become popular after being watched 19.3 million times. A man lifted the head of the vacuum cleaner onto his head because it emits a huge suction Voice.

Then he pretended to attack by yelling and pretending to fight the equipment.

The animal sitting nearby immediately began to move and began to bark loudly, then bit Hoover's head from the man's hand.

Only after the man stops yelling and stroking the dog's head will it stop barking and relax.

Since October 18th, the clips that can be viewed here have gained a lot of attention online, with more than 2.2 million people liked and shared more than 111,400 times.

Many people also rushed to the comment area to share their views on funny shots and dogs' quick reactions.

One TikTok user Bob The Drag Queen wrote: "You just confirmed all his fears."

Another person, Dead Darkness, typed from the perspective of a dog, adding: "I know it is an evil monster!!!"
