Pumpkin-Obsessed Labrador Retriever Is Over the Moon to Get His Very Own Patch
Spooky Season requires pumpkin everything. Lattes. Pie. Candles. And Ollie the Labrador Retriever prefers his pumpkins au natural. Just give him a few to choose from, and he'll have a field day. Luckily, this spawned the best idea to spruce up the backyard pumpkin patch that hadn't grown a thing.
Ollie's pet parents sure know how to make a boy feel special! Watch as he discovers her clever surprise!
Ollie and little brother Tato's sheer joy is infectious! This isn't the first time these pumpkin-obsessed boys had the thrill of a lifetime with their favorite seasonal fruit. They've already been to a huge pumpkin patch where they each got to pick out the best ones to take home. They even had the cutest little photoshoot fit for a pumpkin-loving king (or two!)!
Ollie's love for pumpkins runs deep, which is why thousands of their 7 million TikTok followers have been patiently waiting for @good.boy.ollie to drop this video, which is a follow-up to the initial planning of the surprise.
"A dog loving pumpkins has made me happier than I ever thought possible," one person shared. "I just can’t with Ollie's love for pumpkins. He just makes me smile so much!! "The update I've been waiting for!!" another added.
Tips For Taking Your Pup to a Pumpkin Patch
If you have a pumpkin-crazed dog like Ollie and are thinking of venturing out to a nearby pumpkin patch, there's a plethora of online suggestions to prepare you long before the trip ever happens. Wildside Dog Gear has a must-know list of tips to consider before you go so you're aware of what to look out for.
The top tip is obvious, but always check the pet policies first. Not all patches allow dogs, so you don't want to show up only to be turned away. Can you imagine how sad Ollie would be?
While there, be mindful of others and always keep your pup on a non-retractable leash so they can't get too far away from you. You might also consider visiting during off-peak hours to avoid large crowds. A training refresher to reinforce basic commands like sit and stay is probably a good idea.
That said, if you've done your research and are ready to give it a try, Chewy has a list of more than 50 of the best dog-friendly pumpkin patches in the U.S. This complete guide covers cost and all the details you need to know before you go!
