Dogs possess the ability to display a variety of talents that go viral. Some skills they learn from their owners or trainers, but there are a few that just come from within. Golden Retriever Summit Barners is one of the latter. The canine’s sitting style has captured many netizens’ hearts, where, instead of just sitting like any other dog would, he “boings.” One of the many clips that captured his unique talent stole hearts, with fans applauding his “boingy” poses.
Golden Retriever sits in the most adorable way in viral Video
Golden Retriever Summit Barnes proved why his owner and the internet call him “Boingy boy.” His Instagram account (@bakerbarnes) features several videos of the dog charming his way into netizens’ hearts with his unique sitting style. One such clip taken earlier this year went viral, where his owner claimed, “He doesn’t sit, he boings!”
The Instagram video began with Summit lying low before jumping to sit straight. The transition from staying calm to excitedly showcasing his “boing” is too adorable to miss. Be it the living room, the dining area, or the kitchen, the Golden Retriever proudly displays his cute bounces that have now made him famous. This adorable talent is now the owner’s favorite as well.
In the caption, Summit’s parent said, “The way he goes from down to sit is my favorite thing!” Meanwhile, netizens also resonated with the owner’s feelings. One specifically pointed to the dog’s floppy ears that bounced alongside every boing. Another quipped, “Like why would you just sit if you can ‘boing.'” A few others shared their dogs’ talents that were equally funny and cute.
One of the more recent videos on Summit’s Instagram account showed that the boings aren’t a newly inculcated skill. In April, the owner posted a “Boingy boy” video where they said, “He doesn’t know it yet, but he’s going to become Instagram famous for the way he sits.” The canine proved that he doesn’t just sit, he sits with style.
