Training a puppy is basically like parenting, just with more drool and fewer words. Between teaching them not to chew the furniture and convincing them that your fingers aren’t toys, dog parents often find creative ways to get their point across. In one video, a Golden Retriever puppy showed that even getting grounded can be adorable when her dad decided to put her in what he calls “air jail.”
Video shows Golden Retriever puppy reacting to dad putting her in air jail for biting
Winnie, a fluffy Golden Retriever puppy, is quickly learning the boundaries of puppyhood. The short clip, shared on Instagram, begins with the text, “When dad puts me in air jail for biting him.” The video shows the pup lifted into the air, with her little paws dangling as her dad holds her at arm’s length. Her floppy ears bounce while she wiggles, visibly unsure what to make of her “punishment.”
To add to the humor, an AI-generated voiceover narrates the moment from Winnie’s imagined perspective. “Damn it, air jail again today,” the voice grumbles, followed by, “Ugh, just can’t catch a break.” The combination of her innocent face, soft fur, and dramatic “complaints” make the moment irresistibly funny. In the caption, her owner affectionately calls her the “queen of being in air jail.” As such, this isn’t Winnie’s first time facing the consequences of her puppy antics.
One viewer echoed Winnie’s playful thoughts humorously, “I’m not a bird, I’m a baby shark with sharp teefs.” Another fan defended the pup, saying, “My client is innocent, let her down!” Meanwhile, a third added, “Put me down or I’ll bite you again,” imagining Winnie’s defiant attitude. Others simply gushed over her cuteness, with one user calling her “so squishy.”
Judging by Winnie’s face, it probably won’t be long before she ends up in “air jail” again.
