Video Shows Dog Teaches Furry Brother Important Life Skills
Like humans, puppies also watch and learn from older dogs. A recent Instagram video gives a glimpse of a wonderful bond between two Golden Retrievers. In it, the older brother named Maui teaches important life skills to the younger one, Hugo. The caption gives a gist of the clip as it reads, 'Hugo is learning from the best.' A recent video on Instagram shows two Golden Retrievers, Maui and Hugo, going through learning experiences. As a big brother, Maui teaches the puppy how to dig mud, swim, and ask for food from their pet parents. The dog life skill video begins with a line: 'Things Maui taught his baby brother Hugo.' The first lesson includes 'how to do landscaping.' Maui is seen digging a big hole in the ground while Hugo observes. The latter then turns towards the camera when a dialogue appears, saying, 'I can do that.' Furthermore, the puppy imitates his big brother and digs with his little paws. Similarly, the next scene shows the big dog teaching the small one how to swim. Initially, Hugo looks clueless, standing in the swimming pool with his life jacket on. Soon, he follows Maui when the latter jumps into the water and starts swimming. The two adorable brothers then swim together, with Hugo closely following the other one. Finally, Maui teaches Hugo the most important life skill of a dog — 'How to beg for food.' Following his older brother, the little pooch succeeds in getting treats from their parents. Meanwhile, viewers found the dog video adorable and praised Maui for being a 'good big brother.' A user wrote, 'The best master,' while another mentioned, 'So so cute, learning from the best big bro!' Many called the brothers 'cute' and commented, 'This might be my new fav video.' At the time of writing, the video has received over 33K likes. The post Video Shows Dog Teaches Furry Brother Important Life Skills appeared first on DogTime.

Dog Is Utterly Confused About a Bath Feature in Funny Video
Dogs can easily get jumpy at small things. To provide an apt example, a funny video on Instagram shows how a Golden Retriever is utterly confused about a bathtub feature. Named Maru, the pooch from Japan has made viewers laugh and coo over her adorable expressions. Recently, an Instagram video has been gaining attention for melting the hearts of animal lovers. A Golden Retriever named Maru gets jumpy while playing with a bathtub feature. Although the pooch looks surprised, she continues to concentrate on her observation. In the clip, Maru plays with the bathtub drain stopper. It begins with her closely observing the bathtub feature. Each time the stopper makes a click sound, she has a tiny jump scare. After observing it for a while, the confused dog quickly changes her position. It initially appears she wants to get out of the bathtub, but Maru stays and moves towards the edge. Netizens enjoyed the dog bathtub video and referred to it as 'cute' (translated, comments are originally in Japanese). A user wrote, 'Maru is too funny, It's so pure,' while another mentioned, 'Cuteness overload. And the one slipping at the end is too cute.' One said, 'Funny and adorable! Lmfaooooo I can watch this over and over.' Most of the viewers laughed at the second half of the video, where she tries to move and slips a bit. Since the upload, the dog video has garnered over 53K likes. According to Maru's Instagram account, the Golden Retriever loves to explore the bathtub, as evidenced in similar posts on her handle. Unlike many dogs, this pooch seems to like water. Her account has several photos of her playing on a beach or in a pond. She appears to be an energetic dog who enjoys travelling and walking with her owner. The post Dog Is Utterly Confused About a Bath Feature in Funny Video appeared first on DogTime.

Video: Dog Reacts After Struggling To Get Out of Bathtub
For a creature that can chase squirrels at 20 miles per hour and destroy a couch in under a minute, you'd think hopping out of a dry bathtub would be no big deal. But Golden Retrievers, for all their loyalty and charm, also have a deeply theatrical streak. That much became clear when Bowie, a lovable pup on Instagram, found himself stuck — emotionally, at least — inside a tub with no water and no clear exit plan. Bowie, the Golden Retriever, has gone viral for what might be the most relatable dog dilemma ever: trying, and failing, to get out of an empty bathtub. In the now widely shared video posted by his owner, Bowie appears genuinely convinced he is trapped, despite the tub being completely dry and not especially tall. In the clip, Bowie stands at the edge of the tub looking hesitant, while his owner gently encourages him from behind the camera. 'Come on bud! Hop out,' she says, trying to coach him through what should be a simple jump. Bowie creeps toward the edge of the tub several times, appearing ready to make the leap, but each time he backs off as if reconsidering. At one point, he even lets out a few pleading barks, as if asking for assistance. His owner, however, stays patient and keeps encouraging him, waiting for him to build the courage to leap. The moment is made even funnier by the caption written in Bowie's 'voice,' which reads: 'mother says it's 'just a lil hop' but I seen what gravity did to my dignity before.' What's more, Bowie's bathtub struggle sparked a wave of hilarious and heartfelt responses. One person wrote, 'Awe Bowie! You can jump over the tub! You got this.' Another quipped, 'Legend says he's still in the tub.' And one viewer offered a creative solution: 'Turn in the water… either he'll jump out or start playing 50/50.'

Video: Dog's Seating Choice Proves Who the Favorite Parent Is
There's an unspoken rule in many pet-owning households: the pet runs the house. They choose when to eat, where to sleep, and apparently, who's allowed to sit next to whom on the couch. In a recent Instagram video, a dog made it very clear to her owners that seating arrangements are not up for negotiation, especially when it comes to her favorite parent. Shmoo, a rescue Pit Bull, isn't afraid to express her feelings. In a viral video posted by her owners, she throws what can only be described as a tantrum. Normally, Shmoo enjoys sitting cozily between her mom and dad. But in this particular moment, both parents chose to sit on the same side, leaving Shmoo alone on the opposite end. Her face says it all — ears back, eyes full of betrayal. The disappointment is real. In an effort to make it right, her dad stands up and offers her his spot so that the dog can sit next to his favourite parent. However, the pup is not impressed. Instead of moving over, she begins to whimper, turning her head away and expressing her disapproval loud and clear. It's as if she needed to make sure her dad understood just how wrong he was for sitting next to mom. Eventually, in a show of defeat, the dad leaves the room so balance — and Shmoo's preferred arrangement — can be restored. The video is captioned with a playful jab: 'Why would a man be there? *no dads were hurt in the making of this video.' Not surprisingly, the comments section quickly filled with laughter and support for the moody pup. One person wrote, 'The way she's looking at you like 'how very dare you,'' while another joked, 'Shmoo! You are communicating SO CLEARLY and Dad is just not getting it!' Others chimed in with their own relatable stories. 'I thought my baby pittie was the only one who did this,' one said. Another called dad 'the spare human,' adding, 'He got above his station.'
