A group of friendly Golden Retrievers decided they wanted to assist with a home repair, whether the technician needed help or not. A hilarious video shared on Instagram shows a pack of curious pups gathering around a repairman while he works, determined to supervise every step of the job. The clip, posted by the popular dog account @the3retrievers, captures the moment the dogs turn a routine repair visit into a very enthusiastic “team project.”
Golden Retrievers want to be where the repair man is in cute video
The video comes from the Instagram page @the3retrievers, run by dog mom Melanie Joy and her Golden Retriever crew. The account has over 245K followers, and the bio lists the dogs featured on the account: Archie, Oakley, Winston, and Gus. Based in Indianapolis, the page shares relatable dog mom moments, lifestyle clips, and comedy videos while often highlighting the Golden Retrievers’ work as therapy dogs.
The video opens with a humorous text overlay: “POV: my dogs every time a repairman comes to our house.” As the repair technician begins working inside the home, the Golden Retrievers quickly gather around him. Instead of giving him space, the dogs appear determined to stay close, extremely close.
One of the dogs sits beside the worker, while another positions himself right next to the action for the best view. At one point, Gus even climbs onto the repairman’s lap, seemingly determined to get a front-row seat to whatever task he is performing. The caption on the video perfectly captures the dogs’ attitude: “Just trying to help you, sir!”
The video quickly drew amused reactions from viewers who recognized the familiar behavior of curious dogs. One user wrote, “The help he didn’t ask for but is happy to have.” Another commented, “Always ready to help.” One viewer joked, “They’re working overtime! I feel a sizable bonus in their future.” Another fan highlighted the funniest moment: “Sir, I’m just going to sit on your lap for a front row seat to what you are doing.” One person added, “The sitting on the lap cracked me up.”
