We all love to believe that our furry companions have completely unique personalities. However, veterinarians—who interact with countless animals daily—would argue that many pet breeds come with their own predictable quirks and tendencies.
Dr. Molly Brinkmann, a veterinarian and TikTok star, is winning the internet with her hilariously accurate impressions of various pet breeds. From their distinctive behaviors to the most common reasons for their vet visits, Brinkmann has nailed the essence of her four-legged patients in a way that’s both relatable and entertaining.
Spot-On Dog Impressions
Brinkmann kicks off her impressions with some of the most popular dog breeds.
First up, the endlessly cheerful (and slightly goofy) Labrador or Golden Retriever. These lovable pups often end up at the vet for eating things they shouldn’t. In her skit, the Labrador enthusiastically declares, “I ate some socks the other day—like, 12 of them—but I really do feel fine!”
Next, the anxious German Shepherd makes an appearance, visiting the vet for a classic “butt problem.” (Shepherd owners everywhere are nodding in agreement.)
Then comes the overzealous Aussie, who seems incapable of slowing down even with an injury. “I’ve been running 45 miles a day! How can we fix this ASAP?”
A nervous Doodle follows, clutching an emotional support toy while getting treatment for itchy ears. On the flip side, a posh Cavalier arrives with a request: “Please don’t mess up my freshly done hair while expressing my anal glands.”
Finally, the French Bulldog walks in—a regular at the clinic, armed with a frequent flier card. This little pup comes with a laundry list of ailments: itchy skin, watery eyes, a sore back leg, and possibly a UTI.
Pet Parents Can’t Stop Laughing
Viewers couldn’t get enough of Brinkmann’s impressions, calling them hilariously accurate.
“My golden ate an entire pan of brownies and had to get his stomach pumped. He was thrilled and cheerful the whole time,” one commenter wrote.
“If you don’t like having money, get a bulldog!” joked another.
More Breeds and Round Two
In her follow-up videos, Brinkmann dives deeper into her comedic repertoire.
She portrays a snippy Chihuahua impatiently waiting for three minutes, a scatterbrained Bernese Mountain Dog frantically searching for their insurance card, and a “spicy cat” wielding shades, a knife, and a serious attitude.
Her cat-centric impressions are just as spot-on. There’s the hyperactive Tuxedo cat, the flirty male orange cat who acts like he owns the place, the perpetually grumpy Persian, the distrustful Tortie, and the eternally playful Bengal who hasn’t mastered an indoor voice.
Bringing Humor to the Vet’s Office
Dr. Brinkmann’s TikTok account is filled with creative takes on how different breeds act in various scenarios, from Christmas parties and amusement parks to grooming sessions and reunions with their owners. While her dog content shines, her love for cats is just as evident.
It’s clear that Brinkmann not only has a great sense of humor but also a deep appreciation for the unique personalities of every pet she cares for. Her videos are a hilarious reminder of the quirks that make our furry friends so special.
