A viral video of Jake the Golden Retriever, a sweet senior dog, is once again melting hearts as it showcases his love for taking a nap in the snow. The clip, which was previously shared in January, has continued to garner admiration on the platform and has racked up over 3.6 million views. It showed Jake enjoying his time outdoors and taking in the winter magic.
The video began with Jake lying in the open outside. The pup settled in first before putting his head down to the comfort of the snow-covered ground. The text over the clip noted, “when my 17.5 year old golden has a comfy bed with pillows and blankets inside but prefers to nap outside in the snow.” Meanwhile, Jake slowly closed his eyes and drifted away to sleep after comfortably lying down.
The senior dog’s mom, Tasha Ryland, also shared in the Instagram reel’s caption what he could have been thinking about spending some time outside despite the cold weather. She wrote, “Jake says ‘I know there’s a snowstorm outside but I just want to lay here in the snow!'” Ryland continued, “so i let him,” and added, “….because he deserves to do whatever he wants at this age.”
After this clip garnered love, Ryland shared more videos of Jake enjoying his outdoor naps. Another viral clip captured the pup in a serene moment while lying down on the snow-covered porch. The senior canine, who recently turned 18, is undoubtedly living the best life, packed with little adventures and tranquil times.
