Chihuahua Husky Mix 'Screams' with Excitement After Successfully Catching Fish
Vocal dogs never miss an opportunity to "speak" their mind, especially when they're excited. For one Chihuahua Husky mix named Teddy, just seeing the fish his pet parents caught is enough to send his voice into outer space and it's too cute.
Teddy's quivering, elated little shrieks are palpable! Who knew fishing could be so thrilling? Watch and listen as Teddy wins your heart in one brief 9-second clip!
This rescue mix is no stranger to the outdoors. With Montana-living pet parents (@the_fishing_mutts) who include Teddy and brother Lenny on all the fishing expeditions, catching fish has become Teddy's favorite thing in the world. And, though his hilarious, unhinged response comes out in some of the viral videos as yelping, scowling, or backing away from the fish, it's all just too funny! Based on his chattiness, there has to be part Shiba Inu in his blood somewhere, right?!

Tips For Fishing With Your Dog
Teddy's been at the fishing game awhile, so he makes it look easy. According to Dogster, fishing with your dog can be a great bonding experience, but it will take a little preparation before you go.
Before even attempting a fishing trip with your pup, check local regulations where you intend to go. Not everywhere allows dogs. Also make sure they know basic commands (and will listen to them), that they'd even be interested in joining you on the water, whether they can handle the weather, and if they can swim. Even if the can, consider a life-jacket.
That said, you may want to practice casting lines in your backyard with your dog nearby so you can assess if he or she will chase the cast. If they do, practice the "sit" or "stay" commands. You won't want them jumping into the water every time you cast your line. It'd be worth taking them out to the water beforehand to test whether they'll jump in or not.
It's the same thing with all your gear—let your dog sniff it all out so he or she feels comfortable with it and you know they'll leave it alone while fishing. It's a good time to de-barb your hooks as well so they don't get hurt. By the time you actually go on the trip, keep your pup on a leash to be respectful of others nearby and don't forget to bring all their necessities like food, a water bowl, etc.
Familiarize him or her with your boat and always do a soft introduction of the fish safely so nothing is a surprise! They may not be a fan, and that's okay! Teddy's on the fence still, but time with his pet parents is worth it!
