The video is shared on an Instagram page dedicated to a fox-red labrador called Ruby. The page is managed by her pet parents, Katelyn and Ted. The page is filled with videos showing the adventures of the adorable pooch.

In the video in question, Ruby is seen watching keenly as her human teaches her how to close a crate door. After that, she takes a toy of the cat and puts it inside the crate. Once the kitty goes inside, Ruby quickly closes the door.

Take a look at the sweet video here:

“Other than for fun, is there a reason to teach a dog this?” commented an Instagram user.

“Cats standing there like ‘Did I really just let that happen? Did I really just get duped by the dog?'” joked another.

“Ruby knew how to finally get back at the cat for making her do those spins when the button was pushed," added a third.

“Both of them are paid actors,” expressed a fourth.

“Thanks to the video, I laughed a lot today,” wrote a fifth.

Earlier, another video of a dog's observational powers went viral. In the clip, the pooch carefully notices how its human plays with their pet cat. The doggo then uses the same method to befriend the kitty.
