Adorable Pack Of Dogs Enjoy Fun Bus Ride To Daycare

Buses are a fantastic means of transportation—eco-friendly, convenient, and cost-effective. However, while you're accustomed to seeing buses filled with people, have you ever come across one packed with dogs?

In a small Alaskan town, a group of dogs has a daily routine that's just like everyone else's: they eagerly wait for the bus, hop on board, and excitedly greet their fellow canine passengers.

This heartwarming video of these commuting pups has gone viral, attracting almost 52 million views and nearly nine million likes on TikTok.

The video was shared by Mo Mountain Mutts, a company based in Skagway, Alaska, co-owned by the husband and wife team of Mo and Lee Thompson. According to their Facebook page, Mo Mountain Mutts specializes in dog walking, pet sitting, and family dog training, with a focus on trail dog pack walks and puppies.

It all started when Mo began taking her friends' dogs for walks during her lunch breaks.

“I started working with some teachers at the school. And it just kind of was a ripple effect of, ‘Hey, I heard you’re really good with dogs. Can you help me?’’ recalled Mo in an interview with Alaska Republic Media. “And then I needed a second pack walk because I started grouping dogs together by their personalities. So we had our morning crew and our afternoon crew. Then it just grew to the point where I needed some help from Lee.”

Viewers of the video are all captivated by the well-behaved dogs who patiently wait for their ride. When the bus arrives, they quickly jump on board, tail wagging, and are warmly greeted by their fellow canine passengers with sniffs and licks.

But these dogs aren't just sitting anywhere they please. As Mo revealed in the comments, "We have assigned seating; my regulars know where their seat is." Once in their seats, the dogs patiently wait to be safely strapped in for their journey.

Lee even expressed his amazement at their special job, saying, "I look in the rearview mirror of the bus as I'm driving sometimes, and I see all the dogs back there. And I can't believe we do this for a living."

Interestingly, they purchased the bus last winter, especially to provide pick-up and drop-off services for their clients. While the couple has no plans to expand their operations, they do hope to generate "a bit of extra income" through TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, and online training sessions.
