Father trains pet dog to 'supervise' daughter as she does homework

The father has been training their pet dog since it was young.

A father in south-west China has trained pet dog to keep a watch on his daughter to refrain her from getting distracted while doing her homework.

The father teamed up with their pet mongrel after he noticed his daughter was not able to concentrate and kept fiddling with her phone while writing homework. In an adorable video, the cream-coloured dog is seen standing on its hind legs, strictly supervising the schoolgirl.
The father, surnamed Xu, from Guiyang, Guizhou province, told video news site Pear that they got the dog in December 2016, when he was only a puppy, and grew up with the girl, reported Daily Mail.
"I pointed at the coffee table and told it to watch my daughter as she does her homework. It would then guard her and make sure she doesn't reach for her phone," Xu said.
The father added that he has been training their pet dog since it was young. "It's very well-behaved. I have been training it since it was young and now it does whatever I tell it to do," Xu added.

While in another footage, another dog joins in to supervise the schoolgirl and shows the dogs keeping a strict watch as the girl writes in her book.
The bizarre supervisors are garnering attention online after the video went viral. One internet user wrote: 'Such a smart pup! No excuse for the student to be lazy now', while another wrote: 'Look at the hardworking dog doing a proper job, it's not easy being a dog nowadays'.
