Baby gets new toy: what Golden Retriever does next amuses so many
Melbourne (Australia) - This wasn't what they had in mind - but neither was he. Last month, Stephanie Saw and her husband Raymond (both 32) delighted their son (five months) with a new toy. But golden retriever Jet didn't go along with it. A TikTok video, which has since become a viral hit with millions, shows the dog's sweet reaction.
In the clip, which is set in Melbourne, Australia, baby and four-legged friend watch the blinking crab, which can take small steps to the left and right.
The toy is actually intended for the baby. But Jet is on fire. He curiously observes the light blue object with its orange claws.
Finally, he looks at the little boy as if he wants to know if he can see it too. Jet then picks up one of his toys, while the baby struggles to see anything at all.
The TikTok audience is amused by the cute clip. More than 1.3 million clicks have now been accumulated.
That's why Stephanie Saw spoke to Newsweekthis week . She revealed to the US magazine which moments with the fur nose and the baby are not easy.
Viral video shows sweet moment
"We've had Jet since he was a puppy. He just turned two on December 9th. So he's still a puppy at heart," said Saw.
Although the golden retriever has gotten used to the baby by now. But "he gets a bit jealous when we play and wants attention," says the mother.
She hadn't thought that her video could go viral when filming it. "When I filmed it, they were both already watching and playing with the crab. So I quickly grabbed my cell phone to capture the moment."
According to the Australian, she only posted the video because of the sweet interaction between baby and dog.
Like so many Golden Retriever owners, she can otherwise only rave about her beloved Jet: "When the baby cries, Jet is the first to get up and grab one of his toys to cheer him up. He's a very sweet dog and very well behaved."
