We can never give them enough ...we are so lucky to have them.
This video of you getting huckleberry brings back such happy memories of when I got my first golden retriever 37yrs ago. Tess lived until she was 16yrs old. I hope huckleberry brings you both as much joy, happiness and fun as tess brought me. You both look like goodie uman parents. I can wait to follow the little man's adventures. He's just so cute. Love Nicky from the UK. 😍
When I see Michael's shirt, I know Huckleberry is in great hands. ❤️ Goldens
Oh my gosh!!!! He’s HUGE🥰
It's a big pup! Chubby 😊
He is such a sweetheart!!😍😍😍😍😍😍😍 Congratulations!!! 💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛
Thank you soo much! He definitely is a sweet boy!
Enjoy your bundle of love, fun, and joy!!! He is gorgeous and sweet! They are easy to train because they really want to please their humans. Reminds me when we brought home our fabulous puppy Goldie Girl Penny in 1970! She was sweetness and love ❤️ 😍 Have fun!!!
Golden Retriever-BEST DOG EVER!
I know it's too late yet bugs,dust and objects can fly into their eyes.
Beautiful golden💕
Did you know they make doggie goggles so things do not hurt their eyes!
Thank you! Now he pretty much rides in the back of our 4Runner and the back hatch window goes down so there's actually no wind that he's putting himself out! Will always keep that in mind though thank you!
great video. you guys have given this little puppy a great start to his life and I wish you all many years of health and happiness. So nice to see.
Thank you for your kind words! We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the video and that you think we have given the puppy a great start in life. We will continue to do everything we can to ensure that the puppy is healthy, happy and well taken care of!
Lol you guys are funny I love he loves you
You seem like such loving doggy parents. G-d bless you.
Thank you!!
So cute and big.
Me and my family had a golden retriever. Even when they get older there still puppies! Ours wagged his tail all the time, but if anything fell on the floor it was his😂. There like children in a sense, ours weighed 90 pounds in the end, a little overweight, but he was 14 and had beat cancer. Best dogs all around. Plan on getting another in a few years time! Golden retrievers are the perfect dogs. Really loyal dogs, with usually perfect temperaments. Good choice on the breed!!
Our baby (Golden)is now 15 months!!! Omg, it’s been a journey (that’s her name) for sure!!!! Look how big he is in 2 weeks!! We also did Bark Box! Have fun guys!! It’ll make you crazy and happy!!
Congratulations 🎊
He is So Freaking Adorable
❤️❤️❤️❤️
He’s beaytiful
Most EXDELLENT !!!
So happy for you. Huckleberry is awesome!!!!
Beautiful pup
Such a good pup and smiling. Much
Aww thank you so much!
Bless you, He is gorgeous
Hi Huckleberry, you are growing so fast! I'm a Toy Pomeranian girl, but Golden's are one of my most favorite large fur babies. I love your name, mom and dad did well with your name. I look forward to seeing your videos as you grow. Thank you for sharing with us 😊. ❤️ 💕
Aww thank you!! We’ve actually moved our channel to this account @michaelandabbey and he’s on there a lot!
what a beautiful little fluffy floof !!!!
Adorable 😍
Thank you!!
He is sooo cute! ❤
Thank you!!
Enjoy! Goldens are the best!
He is!! It was a huge adjustment being our first pet but he’s truly the sweetest!!
Great video Michael and Abbey
Thank you so much!
He will be a very big dog. Congratulations!!
He is 77lbs right now at 19 months!
You were lucky that he didn’t get car sick! Our beagle puppy got car sick on the way home on adoption day and for a few years after! We had him for 14 years, I would give anything to have that car sick dog back! Enjoy your boy and have a great time!!
Aww i'm sorry to hear that and i appreciate the comment! We are for sure enjoying him. He did get carsick on the way home lol, but we sensed he was acting strange and pulled off in time. He now LOVES the car and enjoys it every chance he can!
Real cute
Thank you!
He is so handsome. Look forward to seeing his funny antics!💕💕
Just watch out for rope toys as they are bad for dogs! The threads can be swallowed and then end up in the intestinal tract.
Thank you! We have actually transitioned most of our videos to this channel! He's on there quite a bit! Yeah he doesn't them anymore and when he did we were very mindful of that!
You are lucky to have this nice dog
Soooooooo cute 🤗🥰💋🤗🥰💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛
Thank you!!!
I see that Huckleberry will be spoiled rotten for all his long life. Thats all I need to know! He's adorable and has the best life possible ❤
You are going to do so so happy
I don't know how old he was when you got him, but he looks like an absolute UNIT. Ours was only 7.9lbs at 6 weeks. We picked him up week 7 and he's only 69lbs fully grown now.
Hahaha he truly was! Honestly why we chose him! He was 10 weeks when we got him. He's a year and a half now, and he's right around the same weight as yours!
Covering his ears will muffle the sound of the dryer, yes? 👍🏻
You’ll never never never regret it
Beautiful dog how old is the puppy? 💕 Love the 📛 name by the way.
Whattta Hunk ... wish he was mine !!!
Haha thank you!
My golden girl, Daisy Belle, is almost 14.....best....dogs......ever......
Take it from a Golden owner...He is gonna be HUGE! 😁
He is 77lbs right now at 19 months!
Seeing those adult goldens in those pens is so sad.
Honestly we thought they did a great job. They had them in the barn separated when we came to pick Huckleberry up, but based on the videos and photos shared from the breeders, the dogs all got to run around and play freely!
Oh yeah don’t forget to make him his own social media accounts! He could become famous and help pay the bills!!
Did you get pet insurance instead of that stuff box package you get at the door
Adorable! Just remember to look up what dogs can't have, garlic, onions, grapes etc. Hate to see him sick and go to the vet!❤❤
What breeder is he from? I want one
It looks like you rescued Huckleberry. He looked so unhealthy and unhappy in the beginning and you definitely transformed in just that few months time!
Aww well he's certainly adjusted and is doing well! He's now 1 and a half!
He’s big
How old is your puppy here?
I want him lol
How old was Huckleberry when you picked him up?
He was 10 weeks when we got him!
Love this but PLEASE get a lead that goes not just go around hiis neck only. It could really hurt him! Blessings to you and yours! He's awesome!
You mean a harness. A lead is the thing you walk with him. Around his neck is a collar. A harness is something that goes around his neck and grith and give more support for their neck and body.
Thank you! We got him a harness when we walk him, but he's 1 and a half now and he's doing pretty well on our walks!
Did we ever take the lead off of the puppy
He’ll be two in a few months and he’s still got it on. Never know when you’ll need it
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👑👑👑👑👑💝💝💝💝💝👑👑👑👑👑👑❤❤❤❤❤💚💚💚💚💚💛💛💛💛💛🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Where you picked him up looks like Amish puppy mill country!
Believe me, we were worried about that initially too! We've been following the breeder for a while now and they post updated every morning from the puppies with their mama so we knew we were in good hands with how Huckleberry was bred!
How many weeks was he when you picked him up?🙂
He was 10 weeks when we got him!
He actually looks like he was more than 10 weeks. He is a beautiful animal. Enjoy...they are perpetually " puppy like " no matter how old they get.
When’s Huck’s birthday?
May 31st! He’ll be two soon!
Golden for 10 years! Love him. Pretty early to take a bath, and electric dryer! Yikes, really? Stairs? He will probably find it difficult to go UP and for sure DOWN! Way to many toys all at once - expect him to tear the stuffing out!❤️
Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment! We're glad to hear that you love Golden and have been a proud owner for 10 years!
Regarding the bath, you are correct that it may be a bit early for a puppy to take a bath, and we understand your concern about the use of an electric dryer. We weren't too sure and were very cautious with him, but he didn't seem to mind at all. Now he's a pro when he gets his groomings and they tell us he is very good about both bathing and the dryer they use.
As far as the stairs, we truly didn't even expect him to use them, but he was climbing up and down withing a day or two of being home with us. We were obviously very cautious and mindful of that too!
And regarding the toys, you are right that too many at once could lead to confusion, and puppies may be inclined to chew and tear out the stuffing. He has pretty much gravitated to a few that he still loves today (he's actually now over a year and a half)
@@michaelandabbey Thanks folks. More posted videos with him - forgot his name?
@@pKbasten yes his name is Huckleberry! This channel (Michael and Abbey) is our new channel and he’s on there!
@@michaelandabbey my humble apologies for my first totally-out-of-place ignorant post.
Our Toby rode home on my lap from the breeder. I have a CZcams GoPro channel with a very determined older dog with back leg problems which two surgeons could not pinpoint the issue, heading for his favorite swimming pool in the woods behind our home. I’ll send the link. Long life Huckleberry!
Always better to desensitize earlier, than later! It helps with grooming later on.
Cage.? Please.
I'm confused. You want the details on the cage?
Opposition so. Take 2232
why do you say not what we were expecting?
how about having a baby first or is that too difficult
leash should always be on top of the neck and not in front or lower of the neck
You’ve seen nothing yet
I'm not sure any dog is exactly what you expect. I''ve had many Labs pups and rescues and its always a surprise what you get.
Very true I guess it was our first dog and we thought it would have just been different...he's a year and a half now so we've definitely been well adjusted!
I hope you got a doggie car seat for him so you can strap him in safely. its the law in CA
Oh really!? He sits in the back of our 4Runner when we go places...
Why do you have a cage to lock him up in?
He's definitely not being locked up - it's strictly for training purposes. Crate training a puppy has many benefits. Not only does it provide a safe and secure space for him to sleep and rest, but it also helps with potty training and preventing destructive behavior. Additionally, as dogs are natural cave dwellers, a crate can provide a sense of comfort and security for them. Even when the door is open, he still chooses to go inside and sleep! He's now 19 months old so he chooses when he wants to go in there, but it was a great tool in the beginning and really helped him sleep through the night without any issues!
Hey guys I watched your video and I love 💕 to see this. Gosh I love dogs very much
Thank you so much!
Don’t start leaving him in the car
Did we leave him in the car? I don't recall doing so...
Separate observation... Perhaps amusing only to me...
Dogs have been living with humans and adapting to our world for 10s of thousands of years. Dogs are significantly older than history or civilization. They were with us in the paleolithic....
They have adapted to changes in human society that entire time. Up to, and including, learning to be cool with robotic cleaning devices in the 21st century. Yet another weird human things dogs shrugged off and decided they were cool with.
🤣🤣🤣 That is a good observation and never thought of it like that before!
Cute puppy and you seem to have given him a loving home, but a dislike for the clickbaity title! 😞 - "NOT WHAT WE WERE EXPECTING" - in capitals... What exactly did you not expect??? There was literally nothing unexpected there! It was the most expectable bringing puppy home ever - sweet to watch, but completely unnecessary to give it a misleading title like that.. 😒
I do understand that BUT we've never had a puppy before ever, so no matter how much we watched videos, read things, and prepared, we weren't expecting that! We thought it may go a bit easier and tbh he was a great puppy and looking back he was probably easier than most! But it was such a lifestyle shock to us and didn't expect that to be the case!
ADOPT don't SHOP
It’s all about : train , play , and socialize you’re not doing any of that but you manage to get him fat . Wake up !
Lmfaooo get real…that’s the day we got him a year and a half ago. He gets plenty of all of it 😂
Adopt, don't shop. Thousands of dogs are euthanized or just alone and terrified and abandoned by pos owners, abused etc. and barely survive in shelters. Imagine being in a shelter for years, like some dogs, when you only live a few years. If you can't find it in your heart to rescue those dogs, you don't deserve to be a dog owner, frankly.
Very narrow minded comment. In our area the only dogs in shelters are pitbulls, not for everyone. All golden retrievers are taken by rescue groups, who make it very hard to adopt. This comment is like saying people should only adopt children, not have their own. This is a beautiful dog going to a good home, nothing wrong with that.
@@Jc-um7rl Animal welfare volunteers send dogs all the way from China to US to be saved. Same with shelters all over US. You don't need to adopt just from your local shelter. There are abandoned dogs ALL over the US, Mexico, Canada. This comment is saying people should adopt kids who are ABOUT to be put to death, rather than designing their own genetically designed artificial babies
I understand your perspective that adopting a dog from a shelter can be a wonderful way to provide a loving home to a dog in need and that the conditions in which dogs in shelters often live can be difficult. However, I also recognize that there are many responsible breeders who take great care in ensuring that their dogs are healthy, well-socialized, and go to good homes. Additionally, some people may have specific needs or preferences in a dog that they can only find through a breeder. Ultimately, the decision of where to get a dog is a personal one and should be based on what is best for the individual and their circumstances.
Kind of a narrow minded judgmental statement and attitude. We buy Golden puppies because we know their history, we know their temperament and there is no bad history to overcome. So you, sweet cheeks, need to go out to the shelter and get yourself 10 dogs. I am tired of hearing your self righteous yapping.
Even “responsible” breeders are basically feeding and profiteering off a market that devalues dogs past puppyhood. There are awful parallels in other industries, including agriculture (where animals are commodified to the point that myriad forms of cruelty are normalized) and even human adoptions, where white infants (even ones with serious conditions like fetal alcohol syndrome from E. European countries where maternal alcoholism is sadly fairly common) are extremely coveted while older children and children of color tend to languish and suffer deeply in the foster system. All life should be valued and people should provide *more* love, support, and help for the most vulnerable beings in their care instead of seeing them as defective, which is a disgusting attitude that is very common.
Americans don’t care about the consequences of their consumer decisions, even on life itself, and that’s frankly a huge reason why you can’t trust many people in this country where personal gratification and hyperconsumerism warp people’s perceptions and behaviors from an early age.
And for background: I was involved in supporting a wonderful Mid-Atlantic canine breed rescue for many years and my sister had been a core volunteer for a Bay Area rabbit rescue for 15-20 years and even the most jaded individual would be sickened and outraged by the attitudes of insanely selfish “pet owners” in this country who treat animals like property to be used, showcased on social media, mistreated, and disposed of. It’s horrific and shows so many people’s abysmally selfish characters in America.
Who are these annoying happy ppl 🇮🇪🤣👋
