Being a golden retriever dad is the best job in the world — just ask this dog owner who gets the warmest welcomes from his four-legged friend, Ollie! When this man comes home at the end of the day, his pooch is there in a flash to greet him in the sweetest way. Mom caught the most precious footage of this excitable pup rushing to the door to give Dad some kisses. This hilarious video has received over eight million views on social media!

At the beginning of the clip, Ollie was taking a nap. However, he quickly jumped to his feet when Mom told him that his favorite person was coming. All the woman had to say was, “Daddy’s home.” Immediately, the dog leaped off the bed and ran toward the door. He made sure to pick up a gift on his way there: one of the man’s shoes. Then, the golden retriever anxiously waited for his dad to enter the house. He was so excited, he didn’t know what to do with himself!
As soon as Dad finally walked through the door, the golden retriever jumped up and started showering his human with affection! Ollie presented his owner with the shoe, which the man politely took from him. Then, although it was a little risky, the dog parent sat down on the couch — aka, within licking distance. Unsurprisingly, the pup lost no time covering his dad’s face with kisses! Then, once he calmed down a bit, he settled happily into the man’s lap.
“Are you happy that Daddy’s home?” Mom asked.
Obviously, Ollie couldn’t answer this question in words, but he did respond through his body language. He snuggled up even closer to the man and gave him more affectionate kisses! Commenters loved seeing how much this golden retriever adores his dad.
“We truly don’t deserve dogs,” wrote one user. “This is so incredibly pure and true love. I am so happy you get to have this EVERY DAY. Please love and drink it up and don’t ever take it for granted xoxox.”
Another added, “I love how they’re so excited that they’re unsure of what to do, wiggle, jump, give kisses, all together but unable to do any of it. If only humans knew what unconditional love is, but thank God for dogs.”
We didn’t necessarily need another reason to love golden retrievers, but we’re so glad we have one!
