A golden retriever appears to have taken the phrase “shop until you drop” quite literally after being captured lying flat on the floor in the middle of a bustling shopping mall.
The delightful display was shared on TikTok by the dog’s owner, under @aimoon89, on October 20. The playful pooch was filmed sprawled out on the ground with its belly up right outside a store.
The humorous scene has garnered more than 4.2 million views and 250,000 likes to date, sparking laughter and warm reactions in the comments section.
Viewers were able to see the golden retriever take on the unconventional nap spot in the middle of the busy shopping mall. Unfazed by the passing shoppers, the dog appeared completely relaxed, showcasing a level of comfort and ease that viewers have found both amusing and heartwarming.
More than 5,100 TikTok users took to the comments to share their lighthearted takes on the moment, which brought levity to both the surrounding shoppers and viewers online.
“It’s always the goldens,” one viewer said.
Another added: “Take good care of him.”
“He shopped until he dropped,” a third viewer said.
Another added: “Golden retrievers are divas.”
“He is liking the nice and cool floor on his back,” another said. “I have a husky and he does that too.”
“He must be tired of shopping. He is in recharging mode for round two [of] shopping,” another said.
Golden retrievers are often adored for their friendly and lighthearted temperament, and this viral clip perfectly encapsulates their playful spirit. The breed is known for their easygoing and sociable nature. They have been described as gentle, friendly and loyal by the American Kennel Club (AKC), making them one of the most popular breeds in the U.S.
Their playful disposition coupled with their tendency to get along well with both humans and other animals adds to their charm, making moments like the viral video more common than one might think.
They have a long history of being loyal family pets and diligent working dogs. Originally bred in Scotland for hunting and retrieving game, their intelligence and affection have allowed them to excel in various roles, from acting as service dogs to beloved household companions.
