There is a tiny dog losing his mind on a couch in Australia because his dad won’t stop poke-teasing him. This video of the puppy from @river__goldenboy shows River trying to be as “scary” as he can be, while having zero actual threat to his owner. The Golden Retriever pup is leaning back on his dad’s stomach, and his expressions say he is not going to tolerate what his dad is up to. He is trying to act like a tough guy. But he is just a puppy. River’s dad is just messing with him for fun, and his reactions are hilarious to watch.
Owner ‘rage baits’ Golden Retriever puppy, gets cute reactions
River goes for his dad’s hand and then throws his head back. He makes this face that everyone is calling a “stank face.” He scrunches up his nose every time his dad’s hands touch him. His mom is filming the whole thing from the other side of the couch. Even back scritches are treated like an attack. He is just so committed to the bit. “His little belly and stank face,” his mom wrote in the caption.
He tries to paw at his dad’s hand, but he is sitting in the most awkward position. He is leaning so far back that he can’t actually reach anything, which only seems to annoy him more. This puppy has a lot of personality for someone born in early 2024. He throws his head back dramatically. The video shows him trying to bite a hand that isn’t even moving.
Over 5.6K people have already liked the clip. One person said to love and cherish every moment because they grow up fast. Another viewer called him the “scariest land shark” ever. River really does think he is being intimidating.
His dad again keeps his hand on the harness, and River just looks at his face and tries one more time. He goes straight for the hand. Not really biting. Just doing that classic young puppy move where they try to look tough but also clearly want attention. Somehow, that tiny, frustrated face just keeps getting funnier.
