Numerous passersby stopped to compliment the dog and his impressive stick. Keating created a video compilation of all the wholesome reactions from strangers.

"I love how everyone's compliments are just reinforcing the dog's decision to keep that big nice stick," one commenter wrote.

Keating said he was eating up the attention.

@nomaddiaries We walked 14 miles. He kept it. Disclaimer: Bryce and I are cross country hikers. We are currently training for a 2000 mile hike. Please do not take your dog out and try a double digit day, without working them (and yourself) up to it. Happy hiking! #dog #fypシ゚viral ♬ original sound - Vanessa Keating
