The border collie from Hubei province has been with its owners for two years and has been particularly clingy during its owner’s pregnancy.
In a video taken on Monday, the dog can be seen approaching its owner’s stomach and tilting its head to feel the baby moving inside.
The woman’s husband, surnamed Zhang, said the baby’s movements were particularly strong the day he took the video, and their dog could feel the baby kicking through his wife’s belly and thick winter clothing.
The video quickly became a popular item online, receiving 3.5 million views on Weibo at the time of writing.
One social media user joked that the dog might be thinking: “Are you only having one baby at a time?”
