Puppy teaches baby to chew

A clip of a puppy apparently teaching a baby to chew has gone viral on video-sharing websites.

The video, entitled 'Puggles teach baby to chew', opens with a cute puppy gnawing happily on a bone.

Then the camera pans out to show a baby staring intently at the pooch.

Never taking his eyes from the dog, the child then copies his chewing action on a plastic toy.

The camera then moves around to show a second dog chewing away at a tasty treat.

All three pals then lie happily on the floor enjoying their communal chew.

The cute video has notched up more than 150,000 hits on YouTube in just one week, reports The Sun.

One user, CaptnGraviton, commented: "Eat well little one, for tomorrow we chase cats."
