On June 8, the parent of the canine posted the funny video on Instagram through the dog’s official account @ernie_golden_retriever_. As it is, the video is bound to leave people in a state of laughter.
Golden Retriever appears to be trying to ‘get rid of’ dad in a hilarious Instagram video
An Instagram video capturing a Golden Retriever dog named Ernest Southan trying to rescue his human dad from getting soaked in the water has gone viral on social media. In the caption of the post, the fur baby’s owner humorously raised a question for the viewers: “Golden Retriever rescuing dad or getting rid of spare human?”
The video started with the dog standing in the mud right beside the water. In the meantime, the canine’s dad was returning to the riverbank after taking a swing over the water. At that time, the text over the clip read, “Golden Retriever to the rescue.” As soon as the dog saw his human dad landing in the mud area, he immediately jumped to rescue him from getting into the water. However, this heartfelt rescue attempt of the dog turned into something completely opposite. The dog accidentally pushed his dad into the water, making him lose his balance and leading to a hilarious turn of events.
The video of the dog trying to rescue his dad has been grabbing a lot of attention from netizens. One person wrote, “When he gave up and just hung there for a while,” referring to the dad’s actions. Meanwhile, another person couldn’t stop laughing as they added, “This gets funnier each time I watch it.” Another person joked, “So helpful.”
