Instagram video shows how a Golden Retriever catches clams
A video on Instagram featuring a Golden Retriever dog named Drake showcasing his amazing expertise in catching clams is winning hearts on social media. In the post’s caption, the owner of the adorable dog gushed about how talented their pet is. They wrote, “he’s a self-taught genius when it comes to clamming.”
The Instagram video began by giving viewers a closer look at the fur baby, Drake, as he was in the water. In the meantime, the text written over the clip read, “This is how my dog catches a clam.” The video showed the Golden Retriever first yelling at people as the low tide time had not arrived there yet. Then he went on to anxiously walk in the water close to the plank as he needed to wait for the change in the tide.
The next step for the dog to catch clams was to “scope out the area.” During the third step, the canine roamed around in the water and looked for the right clam. After that, it was time for the dog to “try to retrieve the clam.” When Drake came back with the best clam he found, he would then break it open.
In the comment section, people have been showering the canine with praise. One person wrote, “Oh, Drake, you are too cute!” “He has mastered his craft,” commented another Instagram user.
