Vancouver, Canada - Aubrey the dog might be large, but he's just a big baby, as a viral video of his hilarious encounter with a cat shows!

At 50 pounds, this four-year-old mixed breed dog is actually a bit of a scaredy-cat – that's what a TikTok delighting millions of users shows.

Aubrey appears to be deathly afraid of Alfie, the family cat. In fact, he's so spooked that he shakes with anxiety whenever he has to cross the eight-month-old kitty's path.

The hilarious clip captures the pooch staring long and hard at his feline frenemy, before mustering enough courage to scramble by at high speed.
