This loyal pet gives a new definition to the phrase 'guard dog' as he watches over his pregnant owner and attacks her boyfriend any time he tries to lay a hand on her baby bump.
Video footage shows the woman's partner trying to get close to her but being warned off by the dog - referred to in the video as Tebow -- as he barks, stands on two legs and bites to keep him away
As he tries to get close to his girlfriend the dog can be seen barking, standing on two legs and biting to keep him away
The video uploader wrote that Tebow, a pit bull-boxer mix, has 'become extremely protective of the yet to be delivered bundle of joy' and noted that the dog hasn't been trained to watch over the unborn baby.
'The dog is not vicious and is not a danger to anyone. He simply has decided no one should be messing with that belly!' he writes.
The couple is believed to be American.
Behavior like this in a dog isn't uncommon, according to the San Francisco Globe.
The dog shows that the unborn baby is his to defend and doesn't want anyone else getting near it - even if it is the baby's father
The video uploader said in the description that the dog has 'become extremely protective of the yet to be delivered bundle of joy' and that he dog wasn't trained to watch over the woman but instead started doing it on his own
This behavior isn't uncommon in dogs. They are very observant of their owners and know how they act, so when someone becomes pregnant it's noticeable
Dogs closely observe their owners and their usual patterns of behavior so when owners start to act differently, the dogs notice.
The animals can pick up changes in a woman's body language and a change in the attitude of others toward her when she becomes pregnant.
Dogs can then become more aware and protective of their owners, even barking at other family members, including the baby's father.
Many dogs return to normal behavior once the baby is born, but it's thought to be better to stick to normal routines during pregnancy so dogs don't have to cope with big changes.
The animals notice various changes in the person's body language and the way other people are treating them
Because of this, dogs become more aware and protective and even bark at other family members, including the baby's father
