Video of children playing with pet pug draws mixed online reaction Dog remains stoic while children excitedly play with it in online video One of the children cuddles the dog, while the other sits on it's head Some viewers suggesting animal cruelty evident when watching the videoÂ It is a video that shows it truly is a dog's life. A French Canadian man has uploaded footage of his incredibly patient pug Baboo, remaining impassiveÂ even as children clamber all over it. With a young baby sitting on top of it and an older girl leaning in for a cuddle, Baboo endures it all without causing a fuss at the family home in Montreal.Â The man who posted the video explained online: 'Baboo was a rescue - an old one. He immediately took to my family, and my family took to him,' the dog's owner wrote online. My family immediately fell in love with Baboo, and he fell in love with our family. The rescue dog is blind in both eyes, as a result of retinitis.Â Cuddles abound: The young girl, featured in the video, tenderly cuddled the dog when she was playing with it That's a bit ruff: The young boy got very playful with the dog - crawling over it and even sitting on it's head The video, played with comedy background music, shows the pug remaining stoic even as the young baby clambers all over it, eventually rolling off and back onto the floor. The footage has drawn a mixed reaction from viewers on YouTube, with some of those viewers suggesting that the young boy's behaviour amounted to animal cruelty. 'Please don't "rescue" any more dogs if you think that type of treatment is ok,' one commenter said.Â But the dog's owner has defended the nature of his son's play with the pug, writing: 'That is not torment. It is pure affection between all of them. And when my kids aren't giving it to him, he is following them around the house looking for it.'Â
