Woman shares the incredibly cute moment she discovered her malnourished foster dog's love for pizza

Just imagine your family and friends relishing your favorite food right before your eyes...and not even offering you a bit. Sounds more like torture than a simple food envy, right? That's what happened when Alexa, who goes by @tellingourtails on TikTok, was having a pizza party with friends without offering some to her foster dog. However, the senior dog had a quirky way of saying, "Hey, I want some pizza too!"—and in that process, spilled her not-so-secret favorite food in a hilarious video.

The moment Alexa took a bite of her pizza, her dog began barking. Just out of curiosity, she offered a tiny piece—and to everyone's utter surprise, the adorable dog gobbled it in seconds. Alexa's baby girl clearly wasn't convinced with just one bite; hence, she kept barking, looking at the pizza, as if asking for more. Interestingly, another dog also joined in their impromptu pizza feast, making the moment even more beautiful. Simultaneously, the overlay text on the screen read, "Watch us accidentally discover my malnourished senior foster dog's favorite food." Looking at her dog enjoying her favorite food, Alexa too gave in and kept feeding her to her heart's content. "At this point, she can eat whatever she wants," the dog's mother shared in the video caption.

Meanwhile, @annika shared, "Whenever our old boy doesn’t want to eat the canned dog food my mom gives him, I’ll secretly make him an egg scramble with cheese, lunch meat, leftovers, etc. He’s 14 and always gobbles it up." @poto94 suggested, "When they are sick and they want it, give it to them! My cat was so sick and wouldn't eat; the vet didn't know what to do. That boy got garlic bread off the table and was better the next day!" @julia said, "I didn’t realize discovering a rescue’s favorite food was a canon event; mine came alive when I had French fries around her for the first time."

On the other hand, @animal.andcrotchetingfun wrote, "I let my dogs get their way most of the time when there is food left over. But I never give in when it has something toxic to them in it. Similarly, @0hnonotyouagain pointed out, "I love how she got hangry for pizza and yelled at you for it. The sweet old lady can have whatever she wants." @funkelly shared, "My sweet old girl became OBSESSED with pizza when she got up there in years. She’d sit and shake until you gave her some. Pizza for all elderly puppies!"

@brittanybeel said, "Babygirl was like, 'Excuse me, give up the pizza RIGHT NOW. She is so cute; she would have me being a sucker for her for sure, and I’d give her all the food. @no, another pet parent, shared, "My 15-year-old Maltese always wanted spinach and cheese tortellini with parmesan cheese, haha. Made them for her every single day." @autaylor518 revealed, "We did this too! When she passed, we hosted a pizza party for her vet’s office in her honor." @linzosaurusrex commented, "She’s is going to live another 20 years just for pizza."
