If you’ve ever lived with a vocal pup, you know that some “conversations” can’t be ignored. Lucie’s a fluffy Golden Retriever with plenty of opinions, and she’s not shy about making them heard. In her latest Instagram video, she doesn’t just let out an awoo; she punctuates every sound with a playful little bounce. What comes out is equal parts sassy and sweet — the kind of thing only a Golden could pull off. And judging from the reaction online, Lucie’s bouncy complaints are striking a chord with plenty of fans.
Instagram video shows what Golden Retriever does on seeing a duck for the first time
The clip kicks off in her family’s living room. Lucie is sitting by the glass door, eyes locked on something happening outside. When her mom calls her name, she swivels her head and lets out a heartfelt “Awooo!” — complete with a little hop. The on-screen text reads, “We’ve got some strong opinions tonight,” and she proves that statement true with every howl.
As the video continues, Lucie stays glued to the door, tail wagging furiously. Her mom asks, “What’s he doing?” referring to Lucie’s dad outside. The Golden answers with another long awoo and another bounce, clearly unconvinced that the situation is under control.
Soon she’s pacing by her mom’s feet, still chiming in with her signature hop-howls. When her mom reassures her, “He’s just getting the bin,” Lucie doesn’t seem too convinced. Another dramatic awoo, another bounce, and she trots to the door to check for herself.
The best part comes right at the end when her mom asks Lucie if “he’s taking too long?” She sits on the mat and then belts out one more opinionated awoo as if to say, “Yes, he definitely should’ve been back inside the house by now.” No surprise the clip has over 2K likes. Plenty of people think Lucie’s arguments are spot on. One viewer said, “The jump into the wooo for emphasis.” Another added, “I agree with Lucie.” And she sure looks very cute making her case.
