A renown photographer, Rafael Mantesso, shows who the real king of his household is. He posted a whimsical video of massaging his famous bull terrier in a humorous fashion on his Instagram page. The post went viral and garnered over 267,000 views and 43,900 likes in 2 days. 

Mantesso originally became famous with his funny Instagram photos of his bull terrier and made many appearances to news channels last year. His story of why he began taking photos of his dog became viral also. 

He explained on his website that his wife left him on his 30th birthday. She took most of their belongings except "their bull terrier" named Jimmy Choo. He was left with an empty home, a dog, and devastation. Then a moment came when he suddenly "felt his long-dormant inspiration -- for drawing, for art, for life -- returning" from the white blank wall and sleeping Jimmy. He started creating again.
