Most will say that Mondays are the most difficult day of the week to wake up to. However, nothing lifts the mood like a feel-good clip of a pup enjoying his daily dose of pets and scratches. A viral Instagram Reel has a canine tackling the first day of the week in the most adorable way. The video captures a Golden Retriever’s “Mushy Monday” that will surely leave a smile on your face.
Owner shows what ‘mushy Monday’ with Golden Retriever looks like in video
On June 16, a user, @reefthegolden_, took to Instagram to share a wholesome video of their Golden Retriever named Reef. The profile captures the memorable moments, especially the boat adventures of the dog, who is called the “mush king” by his owner.
In the video, the pet parent captures the Golden Retriever’s mushy mood on Monday. She alerts the pup’s fans in the caption, writing, “Everyone wake up this weeks edition of mushy monday is out.”
The clip sees the furbaby sitting on the bed, dozing off as his eyes are barely open. It seems to be a bright morning, but Reef doesn’t seem to have any plans of waking up or getting out of bed for daily chores.
The dog mom gives the canine some below-the-chin scratches, and Reef continues to laze around. Additionally, the pet parent holds his paws while he cannot stop yawning. The owner then continues with her petting, but the Golden remains seated on the bed.
Later, Reef finally licks his human’s hand to respond to her affections. He opens his eyes while his mom continues to pet him. However, the Golden keeps going back to his resting position, which everyone can relate to on a Monday morning.
Moreover, the dog’s expressions in the clip are bound to leave anyone in splits. The pet parent petting the pup till their heart’s content reflects their sweet bond. The video comes to an end with Reef staring straight into the camera adorably and giving a little wink to his followers.
To date, this heartwarming Instagram Reel has garnered over 15k likes and 1k shares. Users also went wild over the Golden’s mushy Monday with one commenting, “Precious sweetheart!!” Another stated, “What an absolutely beautiful boy!” An individual also exclaimed, “Cuteness overload!”
