When was the last time you played with your dog? For many of us, it is something that we do every day but sometimes, dogs take things to the next level.

Perhaps your dog enjoys playing a good game of fetch or maybe they have a favorite toy that they tug on. Another game that is enjoyed by dogs around the world is hide and seek, and most of them are pretty good at it.

If you’ve never had the opportunity to play hide and seek with your dog, you really are missing out on one of the great pleasures in life. Fortunately, you can enjoy it through the eyes of the woman in this video, and it will make you want to play it with your dog right away.

You see, dogs are not only capable of looking around for their human, but they also have a nose that can sniff them out when they are hiding in the most unusual places. It seems as if that is what this dog, Ellie is experiencing, and it is one of the cutest things we’ve seen in a long time.

The woman had the perfect hiding spot because she was able to lift up the sofa and hide underneath the cushions. You couldn’t tell that she was there, but Ellie knew that she was somewhere nearby.

It’s amazing to watch Ellie as she continues to sniff around the area where her human is hiding. She even jumps up on the couch a number of times, knowing that her human isn’t very far away but not knowing exactly what to do about it.

For a while, she runs out of the room and it seems as if she may have checked upstairs. Not one to be deterred, however, she continues to check where she knows her human is, and it isn’t long before Ellie is rewarded.

When Ellie’s mom finally lifts up the sofa cushion, it’s the most exciting time Ellie has had all day. She is wagging her entire body, and we are smiling from ear to ear.
