For some people, digging into a hearty meal without blessing it first does not pose an issue. One holy dog was not having it when his owner did not pray with him before enjoying a treat.

No prayers, no eating

Dog mom Haley Buckland shared a cute clip on her TikTok account (@sykotic_girl) of her furry friend Buddy waiting for her to bless the food. The TikTokker first teases the dog by instructing him to go ahead and eat. However, Buddy did not like that idea.

After much pushing, Haley finally decides to give in. She sticks out her foot, with Buddy putting his paw on top to 'hold hands' for the prayer. The woman says Amen at the end, and her dog heads straight for the bowl to enjoy his snack.
