Share:

Dogs in Bali always have a story to tell. As one of the provinces with a large number of stray dogs, these animals usually roam the streets.

But the upload of the TikTok account @kyleandcassie shows the unique behaviour of dogs in Bali. The video started out ordinary, only showing the view of houses and roads in Bali.

“Just another day in Bali” was the title of the video.

Soon, the camera zooms in on a group of Balinese dogs on the roof of a house. It’s unclear how they got there, but the dogs strike a gallant pose as if they are patrolling the area.

“That was a natural CCTV and security,” said a netizen named Rai Bayu.

“The best thing is that nothing surprises me in Bali anymore,” said another netizen named Kathrine.

Previously, a viral video showing a dog in Bali watching over tourists and local areas was also filled with comments. These two videos seem to add to the opinion that dogs in Bali do have a guarding nature.
