English Bulldog Keeps His Eye On Mom In The Bath Like The Cutest 'Lifeguard'
Ever wonder what's going on in your pet's mind when you're in the shower or tub? Do they think it looks fun? Do they think you're drowning? We'll most likely never know, but thanks to social media and platforms like TikTok, now at least it's apparent that you're not the only one with a pet who won't leave your side while you're bathing. Take, for example, this English bulldog who takes it upon himself to play lifeguard whenever his pet mom takes a bath.

"Never alone. ever...👀😂," reads the caption, with the added bonus of the statement "POV: privacy? No." as the pet parent films the dog named Winston resting his head on the edge of the tub, watching. Waiting. Almost falling asleep even, but never leaving.
When one commenter said, "They get right up to the edge but when you try to get them in the bath..." the content creator chimed in, saying, "Yep 🤣 they love to be at the edge but getting him in is a whole disaster 😂❤️." All we can say is, some dogs love the water, and some just want to supervise!
Why do pets watch you bathe?
Ever feel like your pet has a sixth sense when you're in the bathroom? The second you step into the shower or tub, they're there — mainly because they don't understand the concept of privacy. To them, a closed door or shower curtain isn't a boundary; it's just a momentary obstacle between them and their favorite person.
The bathroom is also a fascinating place for curious animals, especially when unusual sounds and smells come into play. Plus, many pets are naturally social and see you as part of their pack, so they view checking in on you while you're in a strange environment as helpful. Of course, there's often one funny little contradiction here, as many dogs and cats are fascinated by baths but act like you've betrayed them when it's their turn for a dunk in the water.
Whether they're acting like a lifeguard or just being nosey, your pet's commitment to supervision is just one of the weirdly adorable ways they show they love you. Now raise your hand if you can say, "Yup, my pet does that too!"
