On TikTok, the cute animal is known as Finnegan the Mini Schnauzer, but on Instagram he is just called Finn Schnauzer for short.

In any case, the pup-arino has quite an extraordinary talent!

As can be seen in numerous videos, the little dog could even take part as a sprinter in track and field competitions, because his owner has trained him to listen for the starting signal.

Finnegan comes running to his owner, who says "on your mark. Then, the dog turns around and gets into starting position. When the man says "ready ...", the dog twitches its behind to signal it's ready to start. And on the command "go", the clever canine races off!

The spectacular thing about this is that the miniature schnauzer listens very carefully. Translation: the doggo's owner has several TikToks testing his pup's listening skills!

Instead of the signal "Go!" the master calls out "Bow," "Grow," "Flow," or "Blow," and other words that sound similar to the G-word.

But amazingly, the three-year-old dog can't be fooled. He listens very carefully and only sprints when the correct command is given. Take a look for yourself!

The video where the human tests its four-legged friend has already accumulated more than 8.6 million views and 1.1 million likes in just 10 days!
