Video of a Golden Retriever Eagerly Waiting by the Door Goes Viral

Date:

Every dog holds a unique charm that endeares them to our hearts. Nonetheless, certain breeds manage to steal the show, as evidenced by their soaring popularity statistics.

Golden Retrievers undoubtedly top that list, consistently ranking as one of the most beloved breeds in the USA for several years. Most people find these graceful golden dogs irresistibly endearing.

A recent incident perfectly illustrates this affection when a video emerged featuring a Golden Retriever who found herself locked out of her home after her owners inadvertently left her behind.

Delightful Response That Captivated Viewers

Walley, a two-year-old Golden Retriever, resides in Huron, Ohio, with her owners, Whitney Rhoad and her spouse, Ashley. They welcomed Walley into their lives after their previous Golden, Malibu, passed away.

As dedicated admirers of this stunning breed, they promptly adopted Walley to fill the void left by Malibu’s departure. This decision proved to be fortuitous as Walley quickly filled their lives with happiness.

However, the moment they unintentionally forgot Walley outside, locked behind their apartment door, will forever remain in their minds.

A TikTok video shared by @whitneyrhoad depicts a bewildered Walley waiting at the door with her toy in mouth, as captured by their doorbell camera.

The video’s caption reads “When you accidentally lock the dog out,” highlighting the oversight of her owners.

Nonetheless, Walley remained calm, sitting patiently in front of the door, her eyes fixed on the doorbell camera, almost “politely” requesting to be let back inside.

“She was outside for just 5-10 seconds—my wife entered the apartment before I did because I paused to speak with someone in the building,” Rhoad shared with Newsweek. “We usually let Walley visit our neighbor, who has treats waiting for her. Ashley thought I had Walley, and I assumed she did, but she was actually at the neighbor’s enjoying treats, ha!”

Fortunately, all ended well as Walley was swiftly let back inside the apartment. This amusing episode was recorded by the doorbell camera, creating memorable moments destined for legendary status.

“I adore how patiently she sits waiting 🥹,” remarked one TikTok user.

“Awww, she was so patient! LOL,” chimed in another.

Interestingly, even the popular account @weratedogs commented: “that stare directly into the camera 😭”

Initially, Rhoad didn’t plan to post the video on TikTok, only intending to share it with select friends.

“However, it made me laugh, so I thought it might bring joy to others as well,” she explained. “I never anticipated it would gain such traction, but I’m thrilled to share Walley with everyone!”
