In a park, a dog named Watson has adopted an unusual habit: rather than chasing pigeons, he sits among them and lets them land on him. His mistress, who shares this reunion on TikTok, tells how a few seeds were enough to bring the dog closer to the birds.
It all started during a walk in a park near their home, says The Dodo. On that day, the date of which is not specified, Watson had spotted a group of pigeons in the grass. Instead of moving on, the English Pointer walked towards them, sat down and didn't move for a long time. “ He just stared at the pigeons and didn't want to leave », wrote his mistress on TikTok.

On the next outing, she brought birdseed to feed the pigeons and attract them to the dog, so he could continue observing them. It didn't take much more, according to his story: the birds learned to trust him and have since become his park companions. “ Now they gather around it whenever they see it, with or without seeds “, she explains.
“ He's a sweet boy, and I think they feel it », Confided the mistress of the quadruped.

Hundreds of pigeons for a single dog
Since then, the scene has been repeated every time the duo visits the park. Barely has the Pointer crossed the entrance when the birds head towards their usual patch of grass; Watsonhe joins them running and immediately spreads out. Almost immediately, several dozen birds come to land on and around him, while the dog doesn't move a bit.

“ It's hard to get him to move », confides his mistress in a video TikTokbefore adding that his companion is exactly where he wants to be.
Why do pigeons attract him so much? Hard to say. His family accepts him as he is, supports this passion and takes him to the park as often as possible so that he can meet his feathered friends, described as always so happy to see him arrive.
“ What Watson Wants, Watson Gets », summarizes his mistress, who specifies that the whole family enjoys every second of these moments.
