Let me in! Hilarious moment baffled dog gets ‘stuck’ behind foil streamers and refuses to walk through them even when his owner offers a treat

  • Winston, a three-year-old Cavapoo, was stopped in his tracks by party streamers
  • Owner Maylyn Darrow, 25, from Alabama, hung the decorations across hallway  
  • Ms Darrow filmed the moment the scared pup became ‘stuck’ behind the decor 

This is the hilarious moment dog refuses to walk through party streamers, even when his owner tries to lure him with a piece of cheese.

Winston, a three-year-old Cavapoo from Alabama, was stopped in his tracks by the curtain of foil streamers, apparently mistaking them for a solid door. 

Owner Maylyn Darrow, 25, a pop singer and songwriter, said she had hung the decorations across her hallway to celebrate her husband passing a big exam. 

But the singer soon realised her pup wasn’t a big fan of the glittering decor when he became ‘stuck’ behind the streamers and refused to budge.

In a clip which has since gained over three million views and 612,800 likes on TikTok, Winston can be seen sitting behind the blue curtain seemingly unsure of how to navigate it.

Ms Darrow tells her confused dog: ‘Winston that’s not a door, you can come through that.’

The owner even tries to tempt the pooch by placing a chunk of cheese on the other side of the curtain to lure him through, to no avail. 

She finally parts the streamers to let Winston get to the tasty snack.

After viewing the footage, one TikTok viewer joked ‘Winston has trust issues.’

‘He thinks it’s a fence’, someone else added.

‘Winston has been tricked before LOL’, another person wrote.

‘He respects your privacy,’ one person said.

Another user said: ‘Before you know it he’s gonna try to walk thru all the doors.’

One user suggested: ‘You’ve got to put your hand through it to pet him to show him it’s not a wall’.

Ms Darrow said she eventually picked Winston up and walked him through the streamers.

Since then, the pup has been jolting through them without hesitation.

Ms Darrow said: ‘I had hung the streamers and other decorations to celebrate my husband passing a big exam.

‘The decorations had been up for about 30 minutes before I realised my dog was stuck behind the streamers.

‘After I picked Winston up and walked him through the streamers, he realised that he could pass through them. 

‘When I placed him back on the ground he went straight to run back through the streamers!’
