Does your dog know where you keep their treats? Ours sure does, and anytime we go near that area, she runs over thinking she’s getting a treat. Something similar happens at Tucker and Todd’s house as well. The Golden Retrievers love to swim in the family’s pool and are always up for it, as you’ll see in this video.
The video starts with the dogs watching their human mom. She doesn’t say anything, she just goes to the cupboard where they keep the beach towels and opens it up. The dogs immediately get excited because they know that towels mean pool time!
@tuckerbudzyn I don’t even say anything 🤣 I just grab the towels and they know 💦
Tucker and Todd got so excited, and their excitement was contagious! We think it’s funny that they have to keep the pool covered so the dogs will stay out of it – those two would never get out if the choice was theirs!
Reactions to the Pool Lovin’ Goldens
People left hundreds of comments about the dogs’ reactions to getting to go swimming. @Aleem Lalani asked, “Did anyone else think they were running away from bath time?” That’s what we thought, too! @Cesssss joked, “My pup is the opposite, she pretends to faint when I take out her bath towel!”
@Tabitha Faulkner took us all back to our childhoods when she said, “They better get ham sandwiches, chips, and Capri Suns!” @Melissa Hale shared, ‘We can’t say the word pool or swim in our house. And when my husband puts his swim trunks on, they go crazy!”
Commenter @Diamondze swooned, “I love the sound when they are jumping in the pool!” @Suhad HK pointed out, “The way they jumped in the water together!” @Maureen Moons added, “Your laugh at the beginning is everything… so adorable. Pure joy from all of you!!!”
Goldens love to swim, and it’s so fun to watch them play and splash around! But because of the shape of their ears, they’re very prone to ear infections. If you have a Golden at home, it’s important to thoroughly dry their ears after pool time or baths. And if you have a pool, never leave your pups unsupervised around it—accidents can happen.
