Ask anyone with a younger sibling, and they will tell you life was infinitely more peaceful before the new arrival. A hilarious Instagram video uploaded by the popular account @goldenchilidog perfectly shows this exact family dynamic, albeit with two Golden Retrievers, in real-time.
A handsome pup named Chili enjoys a gorgeous lake life out in New Jersey. But his daily relaxation routinely gets interrupted by a chaotic younger sibling named Stevie. This high-energy puppy clearly dedicates her entire day to making her big brother’s life difficult.
Golden Retriever falls prey to ‘annoying little sister’ and her actions
The laugh-out-loud footage starts on a sunny lakeside beach where Stevie is aggressively digging a massive hole in the sand. However, poor Chili is sitting right in the splash zone behind her and gets pelted with flying dirt.
The clip quickly cuts to a pier where Chili leaps gracefully into the water. And Stevie jumps immediately after him, landing almost squarely on his head and forcing him to swim away.
This eager-to-please breed is famously patient, but Stevie constantly tests his boundaries. Later, Chili is simply minding his own business by the house when his little sister launches a surprise attack. She hops around frantically and tries to chew on his fluffy cheeks until he literally runs away in defeat. Naturally, she chases him down.
The absolute best part of the video happens while the older Golden Retriever is napping belly-up on the wooden dock. Stevie charges toward him, causing a startled Chili to scramble backward, lose his footing, and tumble straight into the lake. The chaotic clip cuts off right before the final splash, racking up over 3K likes from amused fans.
Viewers are completely cracking up in the video’s comments section over the older Golden Retriever and his incredible patience. One person joked that Chili is probably wondering where he can officially return her. Another fan questioned whether he was actually pushed off the dock or just clumsy.
