Trying to act smooth around a crush is tough and often leads to questionable behavior. This funny clip from @leothepupperdazzle features a Golden Retriever freezing up around his girlfriend in a viral video. Living in sunny Arizona, this young pup normally works the household with absolute confidence. But sitting next to his favorite lady has him taking deep, dramatic breaths on a bedroom pillow. His intense, unblinking stare will absolutely crack you up.
Golden Retriever spotted acting weird with girlfriend by his side
The scene opens in a cozy bedroom with the lights dimmed low and the television playing in the background. We also see two dogs relaxing comfortably on the mattress. Leo, who is facing the camera, with the TV behind him, is sprawled out awkwardly with his upper body propped up on a fluffy bed pillow.
The funniest thing in the video is that the Golden Retriever is staring intensely at his girlfriend as she sits perpendicularly in front of him. Moreover, he is taking heavy, dramatic sighs while tracking her every single move. Even when his “girlfriend” shifts her position on the blanket, Leo’s wide-eyed gaze remains entirely locked onto her. He acts like he is trying to get his thoughts straight before making a move.
This specific breed is famous for being incredibly expressive and family-oriented. Leo usually spends his days acting completely normal while supervising his owners and his little Corgi sister around the house. But the presence of his special lady makes him totally forget how to behave.
The hilarious footage turned into a viral sensation, earning more than 91.5k likes at the time of writing. Viewers are having a field day in the comments section trying to decode the pup’s hilarious thoughts. One follower jokes that the owners are third-wheeling hard and need to leave the room immediately. Another person points out that the camera crew is totally ruining the dog’s rizz. A different comment suggests he is simply admiring her beauty and wondering how he got so lucky.
