I get so damned sentimental when it comes to dogs. This one made me tear up a bit: my goldie had a devil of a time figuring out the dog door at his buddies' house, but I was so proud when he muscled through his scared and achieved success! Brave doggo.
Dogs man😂😂😂. They are so awesome. I remember teaching my dog to use a doggy door when he was almost 7. Once he got it down I couldn't keep him from going outside.😂
I came back to watch this a second time and, no joke, your captions are *spot on* - without a verbal language, yes 👍🏼 this is pretty much .*exactly* what they are saying! Thank you so much 🙏🏼 for sharing this.
So Sweet to watch. Lovely how patient Georgie & Goose were with teaching Retriever it's OK you can do it! Retriever being bigger dog might have been unsure it could thru without being stuck! Thanks for Sharing🥰Made me Smile.
So adorable.❤ They were so patient with the sweet Goldie. We’ve had 3 and they were all sensitive like this one. They’re afraid of doing something wrong, I think.
awwww what good friends 😊 I have had several Goldie’s and this is just like them: they do not like small apertures. It really spooks them going through or past anything that narrows their safe passage. Doors propped open… a large box… something that’s fallen over in the wind outside… “might get stuck!” I guess. But your hound doggies are wonderful, patient friends… and teachers 😊
Who knew bassett hounds were such good teachers?! Kind, patient, endless examples. Standing right at his side to give reassurance. "Really. It's easy! Nothing to hurt you." This is why mammals came out on top. Not only could we learn -- we could teach!! There are some humans who could learn a thing or two from these bassetts.
I remember teaching my Sister's rescue dogs to use the dog door in their new house. The corgi mix was pre-trained, but their dalmatian mixes thought it was Satan's trap-door. Hot dogs and peanut butter convinced them otherwise 😂.

I currently have a Golden, but have had Bassets in the past. By and large, Bassets are really dumb and Goldens are smart. This tickled me to watch the two Bassets teaching the Golden.
We have a similar dog door and over the years I've watched my dogs and visitors learn the flap. One peanut, though, never learned to PUSH the flap with her nose before going through and would crash into the closed flap and then bark at it.
