A Golden Retriever in the bed video making rounds on Instagram is painfully relatable for anyone who hates mornings. Piper wants to stay tucked in, but her mom has other plans. Instead of begging, she uses a simple “wake up” move that instantly gets the sassiest reaction. The sleepy side eye says everything, and the captions make it even funnier. It is basically a Golden Retriever morning wake-up clip, filmed like a tiny comedy skit.
Golden Retriever gives mom the side eye after she tries to get her out of bed
The clip was posted by @anxiouspiper about a day ago with the caption, “Worst way to start the day honestly.” It shows Piper lounging on a neatly made bed inside a cozy bedroom. The video has more than 1.6K likes and 11 comments, with viewers laughing at her expression.
Piper is described as “a very anxious Golden Girl living in South Jersey,” and the profile notes she was rescued from the non-profit @dvgrrgoldens. The account also jokes that she is “probably hiding under a bed right now.” Another detail checks out with the reel’s theme, since the bio says “Wind and Ceiling Fans are a big no.”
The video opens with on-screen text that reads, “When I refuse to get out of bed in the morning…” Piper stays planted near the pillows, looking completely unbothered. Then the caption adds the next beat, “My mom turns the ceiling fan off.” Piper locks onto the fan, then slowly cuts her eyes toward her mom, like she cannot believe it.
Piper holds that stare for a long second, and the camera catches her doing tiny head turns only. Another caption pops up that reads, “Okay, I’ve had enough,” right as she finally stands up. She steps off the bed like a diva ending a scene, and the Golden Retriever bed video ends on the perfect note.
Reactions were loud and amused, with people fixated on Piper’s dramatic stare. One commenter wrote, “Omg I can’t stop laughing. Nothing is moving except the side eye muscle.” Another joked, “Why did I even come out from under it?” A third added, “Bombastic side eye.” Another summed it up with, “Valid reason to crash out.”
