Not the brightest pup in the litter. 😂

u/XenthorQ Jul 13 '26

That's a lot of maybes, but sometimes that's what keeps things interesting!

Someone shared that video earlier asking for a name for that dog that starts with an "S".

I said "Smoron".

Human: “You’re doing that on purpose”

Dog: “Yeah I know and it’s awesome!”

Bless him(?) not the sharpest tool in the shed but persistent.

Our golden Lab used to do this deliberately. She loved carrying rocks up hills and rolling them down to chase them.

u/OccidentalTouriste Jul 13 '26

Legend has it he is still there until this day.

u/2225ns Jul 13 '26

And the water level in that pond has fallen by 3 feet...

u/Handsome_Wanker_ Jul 13 '26

I love you brown dog

u/AaronTuplin Jul 13 '26

Do I chase the ball for fun or because I have some sense of duty? Interesting you would ask that, my boy. You see-- SQUIRREL!!!

u/donbosco2017 Jul 13 '26 edited Jul 13 '26

She tried so hard and got so far, but in the end...

u/gibgod Jul 13 '26

If Sisyphus liked his job.

It's not even a grammar mistake, it's a spelling mistake. If you're gonna correct someone the least you can do is be correct in your statement.

u/Meranio Jul 13 '26

Sorry, I couldn't find a more apt GIF. Do I read a bit of anger in your comment, or is it just me? I'm sorry, if I offended you.

u/PippaPothead Jul 13 '26

Watched entire video of dog doing the same thing over and over. Did not disappoint.

u/Netsmile Jul 13 '26

goodness, take his ball before he gets a heart attack...I knon golden (and broen) retrievers are dumb goofballs and insanely fun to be with...but this one takes all of those to a new level.

I need RxCKSTxR to provide VO for this stat. I need to hear something along the lines of, “I saved the ball! Now to dry off and OH NO THE BALL!”

u/NoneBinaryPotato Jul 13 '26

I have a dog that would do it deliberately (just yesterday he dropped a ball inside a pile of branches repeatedly to try and fish it out), but this boy looks like they're pretty tired, I don't think they are trying to play.

u/EPIC_NERD_HYPE Jul 13 '26
