If you’ve been on the Internet long enough, you know who Clark G The Dog is. Sadly, the dog, who went viral in 2011 for “talking” to his owner, has passed away in June of this year.
Clark G The Dog was among the Internet’s most famous dogs and an ultimate YouTube sensation. The Dutch Shepherd became famous in 2011 when a video of him, titled “Ultimate Dog Tease”, was uploaded by the channel Talking Animals.
The video has garnered over 200 million views and 1 million likes since it was uploaded on YouTube in 2011.
In the video, Clark’s owner teases him about all the meat inside the meat drawer that he and the cat ate, but never shared with Clark.
The channel voice dubbed Clark as he “talks” to his owner and expresses his frustration over not getting any maple bacon, steak, and chicken.
On June 05, Clark’s owner announced the viral dog’s passing on his Facebook page. His owner wrote, “It is with great sadness that I must tell you that Clark has gone over the Rainbow Bridge.”
“Our family is very heartbroken over his loss. Clark was such a large personality!!! Mom will miss him following her around the house and “yelling” at her whenever she comes home from anywhere. Dad will miss Clark always insisting on treats and snacks,” his owner shared.
Clark’s owner also took this opportunity to thank all of Clark’s supporters, calling them “the best fans in the world”.
They expressed their gratitude saying, “Clark got famous by accident but I know there was a reason behind it. We have saved many dogs together and I know we will continue to do so. You all have given us hope for humanity in the future. You are all pawmazing!”
They also shared the original video of Clark “talking” without the famous dubbed conversation.
While Clark crossed the rainbow bridge in June, it wasn’t until August when the Internet found out about the sad news.
On August 26, user @slater_paul uploaded Clark’s viral YouTube video on X (formerly Twitter) with the caption “RIP Clark: The Talking Dog Who Left Us Laughing”.
X Users were quick to mourn the loss of one of their favorite dogs on the Internet and started trending “RIP Clark”.
One X user wrote, “One of the best videos to ever grace the internet. RIP Clark. Thanks for making us laugh for so many years.”
“The Rainbow Bridge has lots of bacon on the other side,” another user wrote.
Clark G The Dog was 15 years old when he passed away. He started life as a homeless puppy. But at 8-weeks-old, his owners adopted him, changed his life, and the rest was history!
Rest easy Clark. We at Dogington Post wish that you are getting all the maple bacon, steak, and chicken you deserve in doggy heaven!
