This mom was focused on getting her baby to say 'mama', by repeating the word over and over. The family dog sat by and wimpered until it turned into words where he can be heard mimicking the mother as he's saying 'mama'.
It could be safe to say that the dog's motivation of imitating the sound was his desire for the food being waived infront of his face.
Jealous of his quick studies, the baby pushes the dog away, still unable to say 'mama'.

Cute. Give that doggie a biscuit.
Damn, the dog is bilingual too!
Clearly a working mother who doesn’t spend a lot of time with her child. Kid shouldn’t have to be taught how to say mama.
Ma Ma eats from a styro box and flashes it on the WWW,,,,,,
Kid will be proud of Ma Ma some day,maybe??
So cute!!
When I was a kid, my neighbor had a German Shepard who could say hamburger very clearly. He could also say no, out, and ma.

Our cat could say Walmart
Thanks EEE.
The dog is an Australian Shepherd, so I am not surprised. I have two of them.
I have found that cats are like the French.
1) They appreciate it if you at least try to speak to them in their own language.
2) They understand far more English than they let on
3) They generally don’t pronounce the final consonant in a word that ends with one. I would posit that the word came out Walmarrr instead of Walmart.
He really wanted a bite of that food, LOL.

That’s funny!
We had a poodle who said outside.
“Clearly a working mother who doesnt spend a lot of time with her child. Kid shouldnt have to be taught how to say mama.”
A ridiculous conclusion.
She was talking to the baby and having fun——and of course the baby will learn to say “Mama” without lessons.

We had an Australian Shepherd back in the late 70’s. Such great dogs!
I had a little mutt terrier type who lived 15 years. She yapped and barked but never made voice sounds until after she was 10 years old she was trying to get my attention because she wanted to go outside. I ignored her and she groaned a couple of times and barked a couple of times, then when I was looking she seemed to take a deep breath and held her mouth as if she were trying to purse her lips and did a several seconds modulated vocalization that sounded awfully like she was trying to imitate speech. I was impressed and jumped up and walked quickly to the door and opened it and she trotted out. After that when she couldn’t get someone’s attention for something she would repeat the performance and after a couple of years I could identify specific sounds for specific wants. I knew she was pretty hi IQ for a dog because over the years I had watched her solve fairly complicated problems. And she learned her most complicated tricks after she was pretty old.
A friend’s dog could say my friend’s daddy’s name clearly. He would say, “Ralph! Ralph!”
