Posi, a playful Golden Retriever puppy, can make anyone smile — even with just a little swipe of her paw. In this Instagram video, she’s lying belly-up on her dad’s lap, and he playfully tries to cover her eyes. The on-screen text captures her point of view perfectly: “Dad please stop, I’m trying to see.” Posi doesn’t back down — she pushes his hands away with both paws, giving him a look like, “Really, dad? That’s not fair!” Each attempt, be it a quick paw swipe or a resigned pause, only shows off her curiosity and clever problem-solving abilities.
Golden Retriever puppy uses both her paws to move dad’s hands
The video quickly charmed viewers, racking up over 6.8K likes and dozens of gushing comments. Posi’s dad puts his hand over her eyes, and the Golden Retriever uses both her paws to move it away. He continues to do the same silly thing over and over again, and each time Posi responds with a mix of determination and patience.
Most of the time, her paws do all the work. Other times, she just stands there and waits for the right time to try again. The clip is even cuter because you can see her thinking about what to do next. At one point, she even considers using her tiny “teefs” to remove his hand before deciding that her paws will suffice — an adorable display of problem-solving typical of Golden Retrievers.
Each paw swipe shows her personality. She nudges, taps, and looks at her dad with that puppy look that melts your heart. You know the one that’s the perfect blend of playful rebellion and unconditional trust.
Viewers couldn’t get enough, and dropped comments like: “She’s so cute omg,” “Cuteness overload my friend,” “Baby Angel,” and “Her paws,” which were just a few of the many comments celebrating Posi’s antics. Even fans chimed in from Posi’s perspective: “Come on, dad!!”
It seems even a simple game of pawing away a hand can be hilarious, heartwarming, and even viral, as is evident in this video.
