Stubborn Pit Bull Refuses to Leave the Mall in the Funniest Way Possible

Pets love hanging out with us, especially when they get to go somewhere fun like the park or the mall where they get attention and lots of pets from new friends. @stayblessedcurry recently went out with her son and husband to an outdoor mall, and they brought their Pit Bull, Winter, with them. Everything was great until it was time to leave because Winter was not ready to go!

Watch what happens when Winter realizes that they're leaving...he is not happy! Dad's yanking on the leash, but Winter refuses to budge and finally lies down very dramatically. Passersby are cracking up, and Dad finally gives up, dropping the leash and everything. Parents watching were all thinking that our kids have all done the same thing!

He did not want to leave the mall!

@stayblessedcurry said in the caption what we all already knew: "He did not want to leave the mall!" That was pretty clear, and we're guessing it's not the first time that this has happened!

Funny Reactions to Winter Refusing to Leave the Mall

Viewers left hundreds of funny comments about Winter's refusal to leave the mall. @glorygumlaw had our favorite when they said, "From winter to fall LOL!" @Kooky1 agreed, "Forget Winter, his new name is Fall!"

@Mevelyn720 shared, "Strangers in back laughing doesn't help." @Alayna joked, "LMAO!! I agree with the lady in the background!!!" The lady, who told Dad to just leave him there, knows the dog would probably follow them if they actually left.

"Not, 'Get your son'! LOL! The baby likes the mall and ladies!" said Elizabeth Pepper. @Kamryn pointed out, "Winter is in fact NOT coming..." @Spencer Webb cracked us up with, "EVEN JON SNOW KNOWS THAT WINTER IS NOT COMING!!!!"

We laughed when @MJ shared, "I have NEVER seen a dog be this dramatic. Mine is dramatic, but not 'fall out and roll' dramatic LOL! That comment that said his name is Fall and not Winter is accurate AF LOL!"

Some of the comments were just as funny as Winter's tantrum!
