Golden Retriever waits with a leash for owner to return in adorable Instagram video
Capturing millions of hearts, Boone, the golden dog’s video is a testament to his patience, especially when he innocently stands with the leash in his mouth. For most dogs, walk time is a favorite moment in their day. While dogs wreak havoc when excited, Boone patiently waits by the door, anticipating his human companion taking him for a walk. However, his calm demeanor is counterproductive when the owner ties a leash around him, only to drop it on the floor and withdraw from the scene.
First excited, then confused, Boone picks up the leash in his mouth, as if to say, “You are supposed to hold this, lady!” However, the prank does not end there. The human returns to the spot, and Boone excitedly turns to the door with her. Unprepared to face another betrayal, the dog watches as his owner walks out the door past him. With the leash still in his mouth, the pup stares at the door his owner had just shut on his face.
The stunned golden retriever stands still as though contemplating his dedication to his betraying human. After a moment of disbelief, he accepts his fate and steps off-camera. Fortunately, the owner ends her little prank, walks back in, and coddles Boone.
If patience is a virtue, this viral video proves that the dog might be a saint with a leash. Boone’s misadventure might have been an imbalance of highs and lows, but it earned him a high spot within the dog fanbase while proving that dogs make the best companions.
