Palm Beach, Florida - This golden retriever from Palm Beach, Florida, has a strange idea of what a gift should be. The energetic dog loves to surprise his human, but the presents he brings are hysterically questionable.
Social media users are crying with laughter over a quirky clip featuring a golden retriever named Bauer. "Just a happy boy with his gifts…" announces the Instagram caption.
The video begins with the subtitle "gifts my golden retriever has brought me this week." While his owner, Corey Moriarty, tries to relax on the couch, the wild pooch comes barreling in with his first "gift" – a full bag of trash.
Moriarty isn’t exactly thrilled.
The next present Bauer brings is his owner's suitcase. The dog drags it by biting down on the handle. Surprisingly, when his human rejects the gift, the golden retriever seems to understand and promptly takes it away again.
While brushing his teeth, Moriarty is presented with a golf club. The dog refuses to hand over the club, much to Moriarty’s annoyance.
Bauer's wild gift-giving continues in the hysterical video. He even brings his human a hockey stick in bed and a power drill. On a more traditional note, the golden also brings Moriarty his bowl.
This blend of affection and mischief resonates perfectly with the Instagram audience. In less than three days, the video has garnered 1.7 million views and over 125,000 likes.
Viewers are thrilled with the "sweetest, most mischievous dog." Some commenters even think he should be in show business with his graceful retrieving abilities!
