This Roomba was rolling in deep.
A rueful pooch was in the doghouse after an automated smart vacuum hoovered up its feces, as seen in a craptastic video with over 1.8 million views.
The owner Chris Fanning frequently films the exploits of his golden retriever Topher for his over 157,000 followers on Instagram, Jam Press reported.
While their adventures usually entail hitching a ride on Fanning’s back while he goes biking, this time the pup got himself in some literal deep doo-doo after pooping inside “when the Roomba was going off,” per the clip.
The ensuing clip starts off with Topher looking guilty as his owner confronts him over the poopy Roomba.
It then pans up to the soiled soot-sucker, which is smeared with excrement like a spinning septic tank.
“You’re killing me, bro,” Fanning says, before filming the skid marks where the vacuum tracked Topher’s feces all over the floor.
Commenters were bemused that Topher treated the robo-vacuum like a mobile dung depository.
“Poor baby!!!!! Oh my goodness. Roomba was no match,” said one fan.
Another wrote, “Well maybe the dang Roomba should’ve been minding its own. Just saying.”
“Dude, I could not deal with that mess from the Roomba and the poop,” said a third.
Another comment section samaritan advised Fanning to ditch the odorous dust-buster as “no matter how clean you think you get it, it still spews poop smell all over your house.”
“Bro knew exactly how to take that Roomba OUT,” quipped one Instagram wit.
Indeed, the crappy incident might be fitting comeuppance given automated vacuums’ track record of “attacking” man’s best friend.
In 2019, Missouri police had to be dispatched to rescue an elderly Shih Tzu that was sucked up by one of the dirt terminators.
Meanwhile, this past spring, cybercriminals hacked into a robotic vacuum and forced it to chase a Los Angeles family’s dog around their home like something out of a dystopian science-fiction thriller.
