The retrievers at The Golden Sloanes turned a simple backyard rule into a funny family moment. In the clip, their owner tries to keep order near the water while the dogs happily do the opposite and turn the afternoon into a splashy mess.
Posted 16 hours ago, the reel shows a sunny South Florida day with the dogs enjoying themselves far more than expected. One golden stays calmer than the rest, though, choosing her plush toy and dad over all the excitement.
Video shows Golden Retrievers ignore mom’s rule about not running by the pool
On Instagram, thegoldensloanes shared the video with the caption, “Update: they run by the pool.” The reel used original audio and had 4.8K likes and 113 comments, as of the time of writing. It follows Golden Retrievers around the backyard as mom tries to stop them from charging near the water on a bright day at home.
The family bio names Mamma Shoney, daughters Brady and Scout, and cousin Theo. The Golden Retrievers look completely comfortable around water, which matches the breed’s well-known love of swimming. Shoney stands out for a different reason. She seems more interested in her “Chewy Vuiton” toy and staying close to dad than joining the chaos.
The clip starts with mom warning, “No running by the pool! No running!” The dogs immediately prove that the rule does not mean much to them. One rushes along the edge, then two jump into the water and paddle around happily. Later, the focus shifts to Shoney. The owner says, “Leave the jet alone,” then laughs, “Shoney, did you just drop your chewy Vuitton?” She keeps her toy nearby, skips the swim, and soon stretches up against dad for a sweet cuddle.
Viewers loved the contrast between the rowdy swimmers and the calmer golden. One wrote, “No running only jumping. They are the best.” Another added, “I love watching them in the pool and Shoney with her Louis Vuitton she so adorable.” A third said, “Shoney loves her Daddy. I love watching them jumping in the pool.”
