Golden Retriever Puppy Thinks Printer Is a 'New Fetch Machine' and It's Hilarious
Puppies frequently get themselves into trouble, thanks to their insatiable curiosity and penchant for mischief. These fluffy fur babies consider everything a toy to be played with and freely explore areas that are supposed to be off-limits. Their antics can be a bit destructive yet hilarious.
Sally the Golden Retriever puppy recently discovered some office equipment and quickly made up her own little game.
@sally_thegoldenpup I discovered a new toy. And it is a 10/10 #goldenretrieverpuppy#goldenretriever#goldenretrieverlife#puppytiktok#dogsoftiktok
original sound - Sally
In the TikTok from @sally_thegoldenpup, the precious puppy stared at her mom's printer, completely enraptured as paper magically appeared from the machine. Every time the printer produced a sheet, Sally grabbed the paper with her teeth and turned into a puppy paper shredder.
"I discovered a new toy. And it is a 10/10," the caption read.
Sally's mom reprimanded the canine cutie, but the pup was too excited over this fascinating item to listen. The camera panned over to show a pile of ripped-apart papers, making it clear that Sally had been having some fun for quite a while.
The gorgeous Golden was practically glued to the printer as she anxiously waited for another piece of paper to appear. Despite her mom's admonishments, Sally was too captivated to budge. The scene became a race of who could get to the printed paper first.
Followers got a kick out of the comical scene and chalked it up to puppy chaos:
- "It's a new fetch machine mom," one pointed out.
- "I'm just trying to help mom! This thing looks dangerous and it's noisy... I help, I protect you! So cute!" another posted.
- "Like a professional," a follower noted.
- "I hope those papers weren't important!" someone remarked.
Ideal Toys for Golden Retriever Puppies
While a loud and active printer will certainly capture a puppy's attention, it's far from ideal as a toy. There are plenty of toy options to consider as fun items for your fur baby.
Teething rings made of durable nylon provide your pup with plenty of chew time and can be soothing for their gums. Baby Kongs offer a spot to hide a treat and are also excellent chewing toys.
Rope toys are great for getting between your puppy's teeth and massaging their gums. They are also ideal for playing a mini tug-of-war game with your pup.
Other items include non-toxic, durable balls and dental bones. Choose toys carefully to make sure there is no chance of choking hazards.
Sally seems very creative and can probably turn almost anything into a fun toy, though hopefully she'll stick to those made specifically for puppies.
