There’s nothing quite like the bond between an older dog and a new puppy, especially when the elder takes their role a little too seriously. From tolerating constant nibbling to sharing every corner of the couch, older siblings often show remarkable patience and affection. Similarly, a recent Instagram video showcases a Golden Retriever who’s clearly taken his “big brother duties” very seriously.
Instagram video shows Golden Retriever and his puppy sister cuddling together
Wilbur is proving himself to be the ultimate big brother in a viral Instagram video that has racked up 50K likes and nearly 300K views in just three days. The clip shows the Golden Retriever lounging comfortably on the floor while his little puppy sister, Puddle, snuggles up to him, finding the perfect spot on his belly for a cozy nap. Wilbur doesn’t seem to mind at all. In fact, his relaxed posture and soft eyes suggest he is fully aware of the responsibility of being a protective and caring older sibling.
As the video continues, Puddle wiggles and shifts to get even more comfortable, tucking her head against Wilbur’s belly. Beyond the physical closeness, the scene also captures a sense of trust and warmth between the two. “He’s so sweet and gentle with her,” their owner writes in the post, reflecting just how much love Wilbur shows for his little sister.
Fans of Wilbur and Puddle couldn’t resist sharing their reactions in the comments section. One viewer commented, “They’re beyond adorable and also very snuggly and cuddly too.” Another said, “I could watch a live stream of them like this!” Some were already predicting a lifelong friendship, with one writing, “That’s so sweet! They are going to be BFFs.” And another pointed out the irresistible distraction they provide, joking, “How can you possibly get anything done??”
