Watch As Labrador Kicks Man Out of His Own Bed in Hilarious Clip

A Labrador named Saiko has left the internet in stitches after a video of him kicking his owner out of his own bed went viral on social media.

The video, shared on TikTok on Wednesday by carlagiusti, shows the dog lying in the middle of the bed between his owners before kicking his dad off the bed, who can be heard screaming in pain and disappointment.

Labrador retrievers are the most loved dogs in the United States, and have been for over 30 years straight. They like water and their webbed feet help them swim fast. Their waterproof coat also keeps them warm in the water.

Although they're among the friendliest dogs, they were initially bred for hunting. According to the American Kennel Club, thanks to their intelligence, eagerness to please and willingness to work hard, they're very versatile and can do almost anything.

While they're quite laid back they also have endless energy. They come in three colors, yellow, black and chocolate, and some believe that their coat color is an indication of their character. Yellow Labradors are usually seen as the laziest of the breed, while black Labradors are considered the best hunters but these claims are not supported by science.

Labradors are very affectionate with family and great with young children. They usually get along very well with other dogs, are easy to train and can play all day.

Overall they are friendly, outgoing, and high-spirited dogs, and make companionable housemates who bond with the whole family.

Carlagiusti's video quickly attracted animal-loving TikTokers from across the platform, and has received over 3.7 million views and 231,100 likes to date.

One user, Tulin Guney, commented: "Get out of bed thinks the dog."

Melody added: "Mine does that when he's sick of me laying in what he thinks is his bed."

And sarah.keiling wrote: "My dog does this to me every night. I swear they know exactly where to kick you."

Antoniskaliamoutos joked: "Get off the bed dude."
