However, while many people adored the heart-warming clip, some expressed concern, noting that keeping a dog seated in a bag for an extended time might cause discomfort for the animal.

One user commented, “Good but the dog the way the dog is sitting in the bag in same position for long time. It will be painful for the dog.” Another user wrote, “Everything is fine but the way the puppy is continuously in this uncomfortable position for such a long time is unacceptable.” A third user commented, “Minnie is the MAXX goodest baby.”
