‘Needy’ Golden Retriever Wants Mom To Know She Misses Her & Finds an Unexpected Way To Show It

A golden retriever has turned her owner’s workday into a series of adorable interruptions by checking on her again and again throughout the day. Instead of letting her mom work in peace, the “needy” pup keeps returning to her side for attention, cuddles, and a little reassurance. The sweet routine appears in a video that tracks the dog’s visits with timestamps, showing just how often she feels the need to check in with her favorite person.

Golden Retriever repeatedly visits mom throughout the day to show how much she misses her

The first visit happens at 8:53 a.m., when the golden retriever walks over to her mom and looks directly at her. She soon returns at 10:07 a.m., approaches the chair, and leans in for some attention. Just minutes later, she is back again. At 10:19 a.m., the dog stands beside her mom’s desk and gazes up at her.

By 10:31 a.m., she makes another appearance. This time, she sits beside her mom while continuing to seek her attention. The visits keep coming throughout the afternoon. At 11:35 a.m., the golden retriever rolls onto her back beside her mom and sleeps peacefully.

At 1:23 p.m., she comes back for more attention while her mom keeps working. By 2:27 p.m., she finds another way to get her mom to notice her. Then, at 4:22 p.m., the golden retriever makes her final visit of the day.

She stands beside the chair and reaches out her paw to her mom. The final clip says, “It’s time to stop now, Mum,” perfectly showing how the dog seems to believe that work should end when she decides it’s time.

Her owner jokingly described the golden retriever as “the best coworker” while admitting that she can also be quite “distracting” and “needy.” The adorable routine quickly resonated with fellow dog lovers, many of whom joked that the owner might have an easier time counting the moments when her golden retriever doesn’t visit.

One user wrote, “It may be easier to count how many times she doesn’t.” Another said, “I would just stop for cuddles every single time. She’s too much.” One viewer added, “Only the best for the bestest golden girl.” One more commenter shared, “I love goldies so much.”
