A viral Instagram video from the handle @daisythegoldiee featuring two lovable Golden Retrievers — Daisy and Maple the Goldens — has taken the internet by storm! With over 118 million views, 3.2 million likes, and 10.5K comments, this lighthearted clip shows just how different dog personalities can be.
The video begins by praising how smart and energetic dogs can be — capable of running fast, jumping over hurdles, and mastering obstacle courses. But then comes the hilarious twist: timid little Daisy refuses to jump over a tiny charging wire at home! Her hesitant steps and wide-eyed confusion have melted hearts everywhere, turning what could’ve been a simple moment into one of Instagram’s funniest pet clips.
This post ties perfectly with our earlier story about the happy dog who leapt into a pool to fetch his toy, showing how joy and play come in many forms — from fearless leaps to cautious stares. It also connects to our inspiring feature on Kona, the highly trained dog who alerts her diabetic owner to rising sugar levels — a reminder of just how emotionally intelligent these dogs are.
