Honey the Golden Retriever appears to have one main question for the tiny chick in the video, wondering if she can touch it just once. In a hilarious Instagram video from @honeythelovelygolden, the dog stands over the bird and stares like she is finding ways to annoy the little creature. The on-screen caption reads, “What happens if I do this?” and Honey does not wait for long before actually doing it.
Golden Retriever boops the chick in funny video
After a moment of intense focus at the beginning of the video, the Golden Retriever hovers over the chick and pokes her with her nose. The chick shifts and lets out a little sound, clearly unhappy. Meanwhile, Honey acts as if nothing happened. She sits down as her owner firmly says, “No,” and the two pets start what can only be described as a staring contest. Even when the chick stops paying attention, the canine keeps her eyes glued to the bird.
Honey’s owner clarified that this isn’t a random encounter. In the caption, she wrote, “Day 14 of training my golden retriever not to chase my chickens,” while admitting that the day did not go perfectly. She added, “Today was very hectic so mom did a shorter training session with me and clearly I was a little spicy.”
Many Golden Retrievers, like Honey in this video, have a natural interest in birds and other small animals. Viewers rooted for Honey and her owner, with one commenter calling it, “That’s a Monday sort of Boop.” One user commented encouragingly, “We all have these days, Honey… you’ll get it!!” Others focused on the progress, writing, “Technically still a win” and “Great job Honey! Progress not perfection.”
