The footage shows Nayte and her dog Marley close together with the viral "Little Life" theme in the background which TikTokers use to soundtrack sentimental moments.
As the dog leans towards Nayte's face, she bites her owner's glasses making a crack in the lens. The footage has garnered 934.1K views.
Nayte shared on TikTok: "You wanna do a cute video with your dog but she decided something else. I guess it's just my fault."
Australian Shepherds are smart, work-oriented, and exuberant, according to the American Kennel Club.
Also known as Aussies, they are highly intelligent and associated with cowboy culture since they were the cowboy's dog of choice.
Their strong drive to herd comes from the breed's rodeo past, making them a pet unsuitable for an absent-minded owner, AKC said.
The comments section of the video erupted, with some viewers saying she could have reacted more quickly.
Bailyn said: "That's so pricey."
Han wrote: "I would be livid. Only because my prescription is $700+ not including frames or astigmatism corrector.
"But then again i wouldnt let mine BITE them either lol."

One user revealed: "I worked in Optical for a bit and we got people coming in all the time because their dogs destroyed their glasses! They must taste good..."
Nayte responded to negative criticism that berated her for not "disciplining her dog."
She commented: "You don't know anything about me and how my dog is behaving! So please keep your negativity outside of here thanks."
Other users shared other pricey breakages by the paws of their pets.
Maddye revealed her cat broke her phone whilst another TikTok user shared that his cat broke his TV.
Though some users criticized Nayte's 'soft' approach to disciplining her dog, experts advise you shouldn't yell at your dog.
According to Gooddoggie, a specialist in canine trauma and rehabilitation, shouting at a dog can scare and reinforce bad behavior.
Newsweek reached out to Nayte for comment via email. We could not verify the details of the case.
