A pitbull has taken separation anxiety to a new heights in this adorable TikTok video of him pining for his mother.
The cute clip, posted by user @princeledezma, sees the dog standing over a phone, which has been placed on speaker mode so that his mother can say hello.
The second the pining pup hears his mother’s voice, he lets out a soft whimper down the phone, letting his mum know just how much he misses her.

The video was a huge hit on the video sharing platform, with over 1.2 million views and over 100,000 likes.
