The other day a panda-loving friend shared this link with me of the San Diego’s newest panda baby. Besides being incredibly adorable, it does make one wonder how the panda evolved its distinctive circled-eyed appearance, and then I saw this video of a Husky pup learning to howl and found the resemblance sweetly surprising.

I don't know how anyone can think this is sweet. That poor puppy is scared and looking for his mother and littermates! He is Not practicing howling for fun.
I agree with L. Welker. I'm surprised the editor of BARK endorses this as "cute" or "funny". Clearly the puppy is adorable, but he is scared and crying, not "practicing his howling."

Yep. Have tried to leave a comment stating the same opinion, but it was flagged and blocked for some reason, so I guess I just have to leave it at "I totally agree with everything said."
The outcry over this is a little outrageous. The video is cute. Given there are no details of the puppy's life... let's take it for what it is, a video of a puppy howling.

This video is neither cute nor funny. The puppy is only 3-1/2 weeks old, too young to be "practicing his howl." He is clearly scared or in distress and needs his mother and litter mates. Look at how he struggles to stand up and get away. This is just cruel. I'm frankly shocked that the editors at The Bark cannot see this.

This audio caused my own dog to fret and worry when I played it. I agree that this poor pup is in distress and instead of being videoed should have been promptly returned to his litter.

This 3 1/2 week old pup is extremely distressed and possibly making some very unfortunate connections between human laughter and fear. There is absolutely nothing cute about this video. Some common sense please?!

Nor did I find this 'adorable pup howling' at all fun to watch. What we do know about her life is her people laugh at her trauma and would rather get a 'great shot' than soothe her. Ick. C'mon Bark- I think you blew this.

I totally agree. This hurt me to watch. Nothing funny but cruel.
I agree he should be with his littermates and mother. He sounds scared not rehearsing his adult howl.

Please remove this. It is only cruel. Can't believe a dog magazine would even think this is cute. Get a sensitive editor. Hurtful and mean.

Not funny. Poor puppy wants mommy and sibs.
