Dad Who Didn't Want A Dog Does A Complete 180

Dad Who Didn't Want A Dog Does A Complete 180

When this man’s family decided they wanted to welcome a new pet dog into their household, he argued against the decision. Once the dog moved in, however, Dad may have had a change of heart.


This cute viral video was first shared to the social media sharing platform Reddit with the caption “Dad didn't want a dog in his house. Dad now.” The video starts off with a young golden retriever lying on what appears to be a bed that has been set out just for the dog. The retriever is laying on his side in a comedic, seemingly human way on the mattress, which has been fitted out with cute “Winnie the Pooh” sheets. The pampering doesn’t end at the retriever’s own mattress and sheets, however. Dad makes sure the dog has a pillow under his head, and even comes into the frame with a matching “Winnie the Pooh” comforter, which he lays over the dog before tucking him in. You can even hear dad telling the retriever, “Don’t worry we’ll see you in the morning,” before kneeling down and repeatedly calling the dog a “good boy” while giving him kisses on his head.

As funny as it is, the story of “dad didn’t want a dog, but once we got a dog he fell in love with it” turns out to be a more common story than you may think. Memes have been posted all over the internet describing this phenomenon as a relatable event.

In fact, Dads falling in love with a dog they claimed they didn’t want is such a common phenomenon, there has even been a subreddit created where users share their personal tales with one another. Maybe the love of man’s best friend is just so strong it can melt through the coldness of any stubborn dad’s heart.

"Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience." Colossians 3:23-24
