An Instagram video, featuring a Goldendoodle named Koda and his relentless pursuit to escape his owner’s cuddles, has become a sensation among netizens. User @minigoldendoodle_koda shared the hilarious clip, showing the pup’s struggle with his snuggly parent. While dogs can be the perfect cuddle partners, Koda is clearly not one of them.
Goldendoodle tries wiggling his way through mom’s cuddles in viral video
The hilarious video featuring the Goldendoodle begins with his owner trying her best to capture Koda in her cuddles. However, the pup makes it clear that he is not on board with the idea. He squirms and fidgets instead of enjoying snuggling with his mom.
The canine does just about anything to escape the affectionate cuddles. The video’s caption sympathizes with the dog, simply reading, “Poor Koda.” What elevates the clip’s humor is the in-video caption that supposedly voices Koda’s thoughts in real time.
They begin with “pls help” and lead to Koda’s more elaborate plans. He strategizes, “Im so over this I’ll piss on her rug when she falls asleep.” At one point, Koda is desperate to escape the situation, scheming, “She hates when I lick her face / Hopefully it’ll stop her.” But, to his disappointment, the strategy does not work.
In the video, the Goldendoodle’s head gets trapped under his owner’s arm as she cuddles him. That’s when the in-video text notes, “My head got stuck prob because my brain is too big and def bigger than hers.”
After a long struggle, Koda finally wriggles free, with the on-screen caption reflecting his relief, “Oh god FINALLY.” However, he finds himself back in the cuddly position, prompting a “Bffr now” and a final “Ok I’m done” as his final inner monologue.
Viewers in the comment section resonated with the video, proving that a non-affectionate canine is not so uncommon. One commenter wrote, “All I wanted was a dog who LOVES to cuddle and my doodle is not into it.” Another suggested, “Wait till year 4, they change and want more cuddles, mark my words!” Meanwhile, a third exclaimed, “OMG this is my dog. It’s like he’s being tortured when I go in for a cuddle.”
