Golden Retriever Puppy Wags Tail with Happiness After Seeing 'Other Fluffy Things' at Vet

He's so thrilled!

An adorable Golden Retriever puppy has the most active, happy tail wags while seeing "other fluffy things" while at the vet's office.

On October 19, 2024, TikTok user Belle & Murphy (@belleandmurph) shared a video of the sweetest puppy named Murphy who loves other fluffy animals. Take a look!

In a short video posted to social media, we get to see the joy and excitement Murphy has when he sees fellow pets.

"We had our first vet visit today," the text on the video reads. "Murph was so excited to see other fluffy things like him."

In the clip, the tiny, fluffy, and adorable Golden Retriever puppy sits on the concrete floor while his parents stand above him behind the camera. We get a cute top-view look at Murph, who has on his lead and sits like a cat would if they were in loaf mode.

Except Murph's tail is sticking out from his body, and it's wagging back and forth really quickly.

The cute puppy is so happy to see other dogs while visiting the veterinarian's office, and it's really cute to see this pure happiness.

The pet parents joke in the caption, "The floors have never been cleaner," since Murph's tail is doing a lot of sweeping and buffering.

Interesting Facts About Golden Retrievers

Golden Retrievers have long been one of the most popular dog breeds in the United States, and their popularity extends beyond the country.

GunDog Journal says this breed is "one of the best-loved dog breeds of all time, and they’re one of the world’s favorite dogs." And it's because they're adorable, they're smart, hardworking, and great with families.

"These dogs are renowned for being easy to train and, once out of puppyhood, they usually adopt a very settled temperament," the journal explains. "It’s unusual for Golden Retrievers not to get along with people or other animals."

The American Kennel Club describes Goldens as intelligent, friendly, [and] devoted and consistently ranks it among the top dog breeds it publishes every year.

"Goldens are outgoing, trustworthy, and eager-to-please family dogs, and relatively easy to train," the club writes. "They take a joyous and playful approach to life and maintain this puppyish behavior into adulthood."
