If there’s one thing that makes Golden Retrievers truly special, it is their love of water. After all, they were bred to retrieve hunted animals, such as waterfowl, from bodies of water. This is why a lot of Golden Retrievers love going to the beach. Some of them even enjoy playing with water sprinklers.
In case you have a swimming pool at home, there’s a great chance that your Golden Retriever will turn it into his new favorite spot. This is something that a Golden Retriever named Kaiko did.
Kaiko’s afternoon fun in the pool
Kaiko was enjoying a refreshing dip in his family’s saltwater pool one afternoon. But when it was time to leave the water, the dog let his owners know that he would stay behind.
In a 59-second video uploaded to TikTok, you could hear Kaiko’s mom calling him. The dog, on the other hand, just kept on swimming. He even paddled leisurely, pretending that he didn’t hear his mom.
Soon, Kaiko swam in the direction of the pool stairs. But just when you thought that he’d leave the water, he suddenly made a U-turn and continued swimming.
Kaiko swam towards the other side of the pool where there was another set of stairs waiting for him. But he didn’t go all the way up. Instead, he kept on swimming. Kaiko just proved that he and the pool were inseparable.
How did the netizens react?
Many TikTok users and dog parents found Kaiko’s video not only funny but also relatable. Currently, the clip has more than 450K views, over 217K likes, and 2.8K comments.
A lot of netizens shared their funny sentiments on Kaiko’s stubbornness. One commenter joked that Kaiko probably kept on swimming until now. Another said that the Golden Retriever couldn’t hear his mom since he got water in his ears. A third netizen even called Kaiko an otter.
