I am so happy this dog is ok. I have a dog that looks just like this dog.

[@FLo-jc7ig]

Would the gorilla have killed the dog? I can't Imagine that the gorilla would have eaten him, would it?? I honestly don't have a clue what the gorilla would do with him...do you???

[@bethannesperring3482]

So happy for Mighty Joe Young

[@loromas63]

Bet that was the most excitement those Gorillas have had in a long time. Glad the dog is safe.

[@carolrashee6346]

Get him a nice home!!!

[@dmotta2811]

When she put the leash on him, he was like “ come on, let’s get out of here!”

[@seviregis7441]

Thank God, looks like a very sweet fun dog, a real buddy. Hope he gets a great furever home

[@allyodin8063]

I'm so glad Franklin got out of it safely with no bites or injuries while playing with the pupper!

I served in Vietnam with a Marine named Joe Young. Of course, we called him "Mighty Joe."

[@bigdickdudley9119]

Thank you for Your Service.

[@BonnieRexeus]

If I was closer I would adopt him

[@katielaginess3344]

Im so happy the gorillas are safe

[@nysockexchange2204]

Underdog would be a much better name for those old enough to remember the 1960s cartoon. Why name the og after a gorilla?

[@mamapoch1915]

Because…he was rescued from a gorilla enclosure.

[@melbelle2049]

He is a sweet and adventurous dog!

[@dreamcatcher5502]

Couldn't see the video fir your tape at the bottom of the screen. Do ya think it's big enough ?? Damn !! 🤦‍♀️

[@melbelle2049]

Thinking same thing!!!!

[@bridgetcafarella6017]

Thank God the dog did not get killed by the Gorillia.I pray that a good family will adopt him,he deserves a home.

[@jbtpa895]

If something was speeding through my house I'd chase it too. That doesn't mean that the dog was in danger. Everybody acts like the gorilla would maul him.

[@red_monkey_butt]

THIS SHIT WAS FUNNY AS HELL LOOKING AT THE GORILLA CHASE HIS ASS

[@elanahammer1076]

Luckily the dog and rescuers are safe 🤔❤🇺🇸🍀

[@sunnyscott4876]

Please someone adopt this guy!!!!! Did he have a microchip?

[@catholicguy1000]

No

[@sunnyscott4876]

@@catholicguy1000 I saw that in the video. I hope he finds a good home. Thanks.

[@Johnsmith99663]

Why were the humans cheering for the dog when they're far closer in relation to gorillas than they are to canines?

[@willahelmpowers4835]

Glad they are both unharmed, especially the gorilla, as it is his limited enclosure and even people routinely get attacked by roaming loose dogs, much more so than roaming loose gorillas. End up with another Harambe incident caused by some human adults negligence looking after their fur 'babies'.

[@MrX-zu2qe]

Are you sure that Gorilla was throwing dirt?

[@chimerafireclaw7822]

that dog was lucky not to have got killed by the gorillas

[@Cruusher]

Mr Barker knew he wasn't shit anymore against those Gorillas.

[@scorpion-lg4ic]

I didn't want the dog to get hurt but your comment made me lol
