If there’s one dog breed that’s an expert at retrieving things, it’s the Golden Retriever. They have a clear advantage, given their name and their natural instinct to pick up and bring back items. In an Instagram video on the account @hdbrosriley, the owner documented the many interesting items their Golden Retriever, Bear, retrieved this week. The clip showed the dog bringing different objects to his parent, many pointing to what he likely thought of as his favorite things in the household.
Owner shows what items Golden Retriever retrieved in funny video
A Golden Retriever retrieving different objects isn’t new, but them picking up the most random things is what makes them so adorable, as can be seen in this video. Bear, a Golden, stuck to what he does best, which is fetching fun items from around the house and proudly flaunting them to his owner. The dog dad decided to capture his pet’s goofiness in an Instagram Reel that has, since then, gone viral.
The owner captioned the video, “Items my Golden Retriever ‘retrieved’ this week.” It began with Bear walking towards his owner, with his tail wagging, showing off his first pick. The pup started slow, bringing his dad a shirt. The next object that was part of his hunt was a white shoe.
The Golden followed this up with a rather interesting pick, proving that he’s equal parts fun and intellectual. The third item from his retrieving journey was the book “Eleven Rings: The Soul of Success” by Hugh Delehanty and Phil Jackson. The furbaby soon established his favorite among the objects, bringing the owner yet another shoe.
The next line of items in Bear’s retrieving adventure were those that signified his connection to his human siblings, Rhett and Honey. These included a baby monitor and white toddler shorts. The Golden also balanced it out with random objects like a “Bluey” backpack, pillow, and brush.
Throughout his retrieval, Bear avoided eye contact with his dog dad. His “guilty squints” were not just the owner’s favorite, but they also found a place in the fans’ hearts. Netizens adored the dog’s excitement and guilty eyes, as well as his little wiggle while presenting the retrieved items. As of this writing, the video has amassed 577K views and 40K likes.
