Forget about humans – there’s nothing better than throwing a surprise for your dog, as these animals are truly grateful for anything.

Dogs live simple lives and are pretty easy to please. Simply reward them with a tennis ball, a dog treat, or even just some cuddles and it will be enough to make their day. But one YouTuber wanted to take things a step further.

Liam Thompson had reached a special milestone on his YouTube channel – one million subscribers. And what better way to celebrate than by rewarding his dog in an extra special way? Liam had the brilliant idea of buying his dog one million pieces of dog food to mark the special day, and we can’t think of any better way to celebrate. He shared the hilarious video onto YouTube, and it’s one of the most amazing things we’ve ever seen!

Liam captioned his video:

“Yesterday we hit 1,000,000 subscribers. Today I buy 1,000,000 pieces of dog food.”

Since being posted mid-July, unsurprisingly the video already has over 3.5 million views, as well as thousands of likes and comments.

“Yesterday, we hit a million subscribers. Wow. And I owe a lot of that to this guy here.” Liam points to his dog, Max. “So as a way to say “Hey Max, thanks,” I could buy one million dog biscuits.” Well, we’re sure that Max won’t object to that.

Of course, a lot of planning has to go into a video like this, and Liam thought things out carefully before the big day came around.

“First thing’s first, we needed to work out exactly how many bags of dog food we would need, in order to have one million biscuits,” Liam said.

To show us the process, he then filmed himself calling up multiple different dog food companies and asking if they sell in bulk. “This sounds weird, but I’m after a million pieces of dog biscuits,” he said.

Very logically, Liam decided that the best thing to do was to buy and count one huge bag of biscuits, to work out how many individual pieces were in each bag. He purchased a 12kg bag and set to work counting. We don’t envy him one bit, but with now over one million subscribers to keep happy, Liam knows that they deserve only the best.

After seeing the humongous pile of dog biscuits on the floor, Liam quickly backtracks on his counting idea and instead decides to weigh out the dog food to get the overall number.

After doing the math, Liam works out that he will need 29.7 bags before he has one million dog biscuits. Now that’s going to make a mess!

But like a good sport, Liam buys the bags, and the day finally arrives for him to pick up the dog food. He then sets to work emptying them all out. Until he hits a bump in the road.

“If I kept them (the biscuits) all for Max, it would take him seven years to finish them.” Liam says. “So I called the SPCA, and it turns out that if the food is unsealed then you can’t donate it.”

So Liam comes up with the genius idea of keeping some of the bags closed so that they can go to the SPCA.

Now for the moment we’ve all been waiting for: it’s time for Liam to surprise Max. Liam gives a countdown before opening the door for Max to basically let loose in there. But hilariously, the polite pup nibbles daintily on the corner of a pile.

After some time, Liam decides that it’s time to take Max away after he eats around “ten breakfast’s worth.”

We’re pretty sure this is one of the best videos we’ve ever seen, and we bet Max is feeling very spoiled now! Watch the hilarious video below.
