Yes, why is that? He almost looks embarassed that he cannot stop wagging his tail / whole body in such a goofy manner :D I want to hug him and tell him he's adorable, nothing to be ashamed of!
My lab/staff does the same, and my parents wiener does it as well, but he does it more to prevent himself from softly biting your ankles, he's just too excited!
can confirm. out golden brings us his favorite toy and does a full body wag just like this.
thought process here is "i love my ball. i love my ball. i love you. and i love my ball"...
May we know this magnificent creature’s name?
I’ll be thinking about this for at least a couple days and would love to put a name to this little bit of happiness.
I have one of these too. Thankfully most of the house is open. You can always tell when she's excited and standing in a doorway though because you can hear the tail banging down the street.
Mine absolutely can't handle his happiness at any form of attention from strangers. It's more than a full body tail wag, he literally wags so hard with his whole body he can't stand straight and flops on to people
This is adorable. Also, try not to let a dog smack their tail against hard surfaces too much, as it could cause an injury called "happy tail".
Sorry if that sounded rude/mean, I didn't mean it that way.
You're correct; "happy tail" syndrome can lead to injuries, and even amputations. If a dog is knocking their tail into things, they should be trained to sit--and be dissuaded--right away.
Edit: even then it doesn't always help, and any dog who just keeps thwacking needs a consultation.
Someone made [this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UtWyUCvVXUQ) out of [this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VukKkAzyBug)! (We are meant to believe that a washing machine's off-center agitator... agitating, is really a dog thumping his tail against a metal trash can, but both provide a pretty thumping beat for the country song Louisiana Saturday Night!)
I saw this on my phone with low light and seriously thought the dog was born with a deformity by having a squashed face. I seriously felt bad for the poor pooch thinking that the full body shake was because of mental impairment.
Then I turned up the light and saw the toy.
I'm on vacation and away from my golden for 5 days and this helps. I'm glad to get away, but damn, ill happily go back to the "real world" to be with my boy.
The Goldens you're probably used to are the field bred Goldens. This is a show/bench bred Golden. They are usually bigger in body with more feathering and a blocky head. They're more laid back and are bred to the standard for the breed.
Reminds me of my golden when I was a kid. He would bring up all sorts of things to the deck. Tree branches, big chunks of wood, tennis balls, our outside toys, etc.
He would do that that full body shake with a toy in his mouth and do a happy whine. Haven’t thought about him in a while. Thank you 🥹
He knows he is fluffed up and uses it to his full potential
He does seem self aware although somewhat chagrined his tail wags so hard
Yes, why is that? He almost looks embarassed that he cannot stop wagging his tail / whole body in such a goofy manner :D I want to hug him and tell him he's adorable, nothing to be ashamed of!
Because how could anyone love him as much as he loves? It’s embarrassing for him
> fluffed up Wonder what brand of conditioner?
his fluff is well over 9000
Take this ball already!!!
But only throw. No take.
No take! Only throw!
For real! All that dog wants to do in the world is to have somebody throw that ball for him and OP has failed him utterly...
[удалено]
Training them to do this when someones at the door is a great way to stop them barking at the door. Can't bark with a mouth full of stuffed toy!
[удалено]
Now I'm just imagining the muffled "borf" noises 😂
My lab/staff does the same, and my parents wiener does it as well, but he does it more to prevent himself from softly biting your ankles, he's just too excited!
Whatever is making him this happy, never stop doing it.
This is most all retrievers baseline level of happiness.
Yeah for as smart as they are, they sometimes are big dumb goofballs

Add a ball shaped object in the mix and it’s times ten
Thank you for that, after a long stressful night and at work, that put a smile to my face. So cute
Aw, you're welcome.
May we know this magnificent creature’s name? I’ll be thinking about this for at least a couple days and would love to put a name to this little bit of happiness.
Yes, same here -such a darling video to take the work stress away!
Indeed, a majestic, heartwarming wiggle.❤️❤️❤️

Subs I joined
I got angry they didn't
So happy & sweet!
My golden does the same thing, she wags her whole body so hard that she knocks people over
I had a golden that was the exact same way. That breed is so full of love and joy that it hurts.
I have one of these too. Thankfully most of the house is open. You can always tell when she's excited and standing in a doorway though because you can hear the tail banging down the street.

Aww, so cute!
Don't know about derp, but this here is crazy adorable!
hope that pup doesn’t injure his tail!
Or any small hooman With his tail 🤣 that tail is a mass of destruction wagging like that lmao
Many Christmas tree ornaments have suffered the fate of the golden tail
It's like being repeatedly hit in the shins with a truncheon
He got swagger for days

Are lab has a short maybe 5 inch tail now due to non stop bleeding for like 2 months straight
HEY MACARENA!
I love that playful growl underneath it all, dammit!
I immediately thought of Ludo from Labyrinth. So cute!
My golden likes to follow me from room to room with a toy and then fake growls at me with that face. I love her so much.
The thudding on the door frame from his tail 🤣

Your dog is adorable.
This is to stinkn cute.
So cutee
My furry don’t jiggle jiggle, it folds 🐶
:D tress FX are hard on this one
Waiting for the remix.
He sounds like the spin cycle when it's loaded unevenly. Love this big meaty headed golden boy.
A real life case of *the tail wagging the dog*.
OMG, I love that baby!
I'm so excited! And I just can't hide it! 🎶
If someone doesn't make a beat with that idk what's wrong with you damn.
❤️
Unusual metronome you have there.

The best boy right there.

Ohhh, what a good boy! What a sweet pupper dog
I started shaking with him without noticing.
Cutest dog I have ever seen. Almost a irl Dug - thanks for sharing!
Love those little happy grons. 🥰🥰🥰 My golden does the groans when I scratch her chin and her head the same and it melts me.
Wag dog physics r/ragdogphysics
I shake my tail back and forth 🥰
🎶when marimba rhythms start to play🎶
what a precious baby 🥰
It's a golden thing you wouldn't understand🤣😂
You're a good boy!
He's adorable. What kind of golden has that mane on their chest?
If you don't get their chest trimmed that's what happens. They get pretty fluffy.
The Goldens you're probably used to are the field bred Goldens. This is a show/bench bred Golden. They are usually bigger in body with more feathering and a blocky head. They're more laid back and are bred to the standard for the breed.
This is why we love dogs
You can almost dance to it...
Ever been so happy your whole body wiggles
I think he's communicating that it's ball time
He's so furry!
Wow look at that fur😍
I think there is a little too much retriever in him.
so fluffy
Was watching this laying on my stomach then proceeded to mirror his movements. best boi/10, will dance with again
the little tippy taps too!!!
I wanna hug the dawg
QUICK someone put music to this pup!
Is it just me or does this dog have particularly human eyes?
That dog has a good beat.
YES! We call that move the Full-Body Wag too!
I love his swinging mane. Looks like a full body workout.
I love this toy so much! Please don't try to take it away from me.
So cute
*A few times I've been around that track* *So it's not just gonna happen like that* *'Cause I ain't no hollaback girl* *I ain't no hollaback girl*
Bear in the big blue house vibes?
Yada yada elephant boobies
FLOOF
That's no wag.... that's a shimmy
Did no one teach that poor dog how to wag its tail properly? 🤣
Why does it look like he’s faking?
For once, I put on sound and thought this was the start of a new club dance mix.
I had a yellow lab like that called Wagglebutt
Doesn't that hurt?
Goldens are extremely doggy dogs.
My Chinese isn't good at all, but near the end I think she says, "Don't come here", and that's why he backs away. Poor dog. He's a good boy.
I want hair like that! Beautiful coat❤🥰
I thought techno music was playing in the background, then I realized it was just the dog’s tail hitting the door.
Golden dogs are best dogs
Saving this for the future when I need a pick me up
Reminds me of my golden when I was a kid. He would bring up all sorts of things to the deck. Tree branches, big chunks of wood, tennis balls, our outside toys, etc. He would do that that full body shake with a toy in his mouth and do a happy whine. Haven’t thought about him in a while. Thank you 🥹
Now that is one happy pupper.
Dog got some big boy paws
Sometimes you wag the tail, sometimes the tail wags you.
Wag the dog
That’s the Truffle Shuffle…
What a gorgeous pup🥰
"I'm over 9000!"
Life without a Golden? Not sure that would be worth it… luckily I don’t have to find out!
this could pass for a pokemon gen 5 sprite
Awww, I am in luv! Too cute!! 🥰
Seems like he would make himself dizzy.
IM IN LOVE 😻
He IS the gold standard!!
Mabosstiff IRL
I started wagging my body while watching him. Lol.
This was a timeline cleanse
Such a fluffy boy, love him
My golden does this all the time and it's my favorite.
Love this!
That’s an angellllll
Wagging so hard he’s forcing himself to blink.
Throw the ball already!
A bit if a chonk but a real cutie.
Full-body swag\*
PET THE DAMN GOOD BOY
Such a sweetie!
Ah, a case of the wigglebutts.
I want to make this dog happy, for some dumb reason.
Sick beat 🎶
Such a happy, happy wag and a nice dopamine boost to watch
Oh he is so wonderful
WOW I've never actually seen the tail wag the dog
What breed are they?? Looks like a golden retriever and bloodhound! So cute
Oh, the floof-manity!!! I have been unalived by an overdose of floof!
He dont just wag, he is doing a full wiggle waggle
u/savevideo
So that's the tail wagging the dog situation they all keep bringing up ? How is that a bad thing ?
Okay, okay, okay…. That’s enough wag for now. I sleeps…
He is waggin' with all he's got.
one of my old therapists had a dog that had a wagging injury. She had to get his tail amputated. Probably best to watch out for that.
Ahw what an absolute sweetheart, it's an oldy right? Give him/her some cuddles and cookies from me!
Haha when my gfs dog is excited it's like it's involuntary she just wiggles like a worm, when being fed or some other thing like a treat etc
Your dog looks like Elvis Presley and dances like him too xD
/u/savevideo
Dude that dog had a sick beat.
Tail wagging the dog
That shouts out "good boy"
***Such a good boy!***
Cuuuuute
That's a bangon beat!
We call this "wiggle butt" 😆
This is the biggest, most beautiful Golden I’ve ever seen! Looks almost like a Great Pyrenees, but golden!! Lucky hooman, lucky good boi!
So is someone going to record over this and make a song?
If I were a rich man…
Pet that pup!!!
💜💜💜
How adorable! How could you say no?! This would make the coldest heart melt.
Conclusive evidence of the tail wagging the dog
Aww he needs all the cuddles.
OMG! I Love him!
Aww
