At least that’s the case with Zebby. When the human boops this Golden Retriever puppy, he does something unexpected to teach her a lesson for disturbing him.
A Golden Retriever puppy responds in kind after its owner boops it in a cute video
A Golden Retriever puppy left everyone in stitches when a video of his hilarious reaction was posted on Instagram by @zebbythegolden. In the video, Zebby is resting, most likely on a couch. He is enjoying his time alone, not bothering anyone. But looks like his human friend was not impressed by his quiet behaviour and wanted to play with him.
So, what does she do? She boops her puppy more than once, hoping for a cute reaction. Instead, the pup sprints up and boops her back, hinting he is done with her charades.
The adorable Golden Retriever’s puppy boop video has garnered more than 398K likes since it was posted. Zebby’s hilarious reaction took viewers by surpise, and many could relate to his sentiments. One person commented, “He’s like- “now you take this.” Another one joked, “Puppy be like : I’ll show you how it’s done.” While one person was in love with the pup’s antics and suggested, “I will let him nibble on my hand.”
Boop usually refers to a gentle touch or tap on the dog’s nose with the sound boop. This gesture is usually done to show affection towards the pooch or to initiate play. While some dogs might love getting attention this way, not every pooch appreciates this type of touching.
Hence, it is important to understand what a dog likes and dislikes. If they are uncomfortable with boop, avoid forcing this type of interaction. Instead, try petting, cuddling, snuggling, or playing their favorite game to interact with them and show your love and affection.
