Naughty’s owner, known by her surname Zhang, told MailOnline that her dog would often wait for her by the window until she gets back from work.

‘He does it very often. Most of the time, he would spend the entire morning just waiting there,’ Ms Zhang said. ‘Sometimes he would maybe take a short nap in the afternoon.’

The pet owner, living in Shenyang city of north-eastern China, has been documenting her dog’s daily life on the Chinese TikTok-like Douyin.

She shared the footage last Wednesday after spotting the scene on her home security camera.

At around 7.30am, Naughty is seen leaning against the window and looking down as it watched Ms Zhang leaving the block and going to work.

For the next ten hours, the faithful canine remained in the same spot while constantly looking into the distance, seemingly trying to catch sight of his owner.

When he spotted Ms Zhang returning home from the window at about 5.40pm, Naughty immediately leapt off the bed and rushed to give her a warm greeting.

The overjoyed board collie jumped with excitement as the woman opened the door.

‘It broke my heart seeing that footage,’ the dog owner said. ‘But I have no other way.’

Ms Zhang added that having a nine-to-five office job gave her stability but also prevented her from spending more time with Naughty. The picture shows Ms Zhang playing with her dog

Ms Zhang added that having a nine-to-five office job gave her stability but also prevented her from spending more time with Naughty.

‘I try my best to take him everywhere to play during weekends and holidays. I also considered keeping another dog, but I was worried that they would both wait for me. I would be even more heart-broken.’

Many pet owners commented under Ms Zhang’s video, admitting that they shared the same guilt for their dogs.

One viewer wrote: ‘After keeping a dog, not being home for one day feels like a sin. I would feel so guilty and I would do anything to stay with it all the time. It’s like being in a romantic relationship!’

Another commenter agreed: ‘I have the exact same working time as you. My dog has the exact same waiting time as yours.’
