Older Sibling's Kind Gesture Toward Struggling Golden Retriever Puppy Is Precious

This is just too sweet.

A beautiful moment between an older Golden Retriever and their younger sibling puppy and the kind gesture between the two is giving people big feels.

On September 16, 2024, social media user Blue & Bear (@blue.bear.goldens) shared a really cute video of a sweet moment between the two precious siblings. Take a look!

In a short video, we meet up with two Golden Retrievers who were playing outside when they were faced with a problem together.

"Watch my brother help me as soon as he saw me struggling," the text on the screen reads. In the clip, we meet a really cute, fluffy Golden Retriever puppy who finds itself in a little bit of a pickle.

It turns out Bear, a Golden Retriever puppy, was playing outside when he encountered a situation he didn't know how to escape. But thankfully, Bear's older brother, Blue, was nearby and knew exactly what to do. 

Bear was playing in the yard, and it looked like he had a toy stuck to his head. It's not clear if it's a hat that fell to cover his face, if it's an oversized badminton birdie, or a toy that Bear is carrying in his mouth and doesn't understand who he can't see. 

Whatever it was, Blue knew exactly what to do when he reached Bear. After the little puppy spun in a circle several times with his eyes closed, the older pup came over and helped him nudge the toy off his eyes in the most helpful big brother way. 

Once it was knocked off and no longer obstructing his view, the two walked together. The video cut off just before the two dogs walked out of the screen's view.

"Sweet moments like this," the video's caption read. And in the comments, a mix of people swooned over the cute interaction between the dogs and others who joked with interpretations of what their audience was. 

One wrote, "I love how fluffy Goldies are when they’re puppies."

Another said, "Oh my gosh, how sweet. Also, what a goober getting that stuck in the first place."

Someone else added, "Blues little "boop" did the trick! So sweet!"

Another explained, "Awww I love this. Blue is like what’s wrong with u, bro."

One added, "That was so lovely to watch. It brought a tear to my eyes. Humans could learn a lot from dogs' loyalty, being one of them. Kisses to both your dogs are amazing."

Interesting Facts About Golden Retrievers

Both Blue and Bear are Golden Retrievers, even though one is more honey than the other, these two are going to likely grow to continue to be the best of friends. 

Golden Retrievers are a very beloved brand for new dog parents and seasoned ones. Often their playful nature well into adulthood is one reason people quickly fall in love plus they're also just really cute.

According to the American Kennel Club, Golden Retrievers need a lot of exercise.  "Goldens are always ready for action, whether it’s a game of fetch, hiking, swimming, or other exercise. They’re natural athletes that excel at a variety of sports,' the site explains.
