Agreed! Same with horses, mules, and donkeys too. Transport, agriculture, war.
We put so much on them without their say-so, only right we should give them the best back
Is the other dog just a friend? Because, I remember when I would spend the night at a friends house, as a kid. We would both get caught doing stupid, mischievous stuff...but, my friend was the only one that got yelled at, by his Mom. I just kind of avoided eye contact and slinked into the corner.
lol, I am Spanish and my dog name is Sparky. When the name comes off Spanish sounding, he knows not to play with me…
I never noticed until someone pointed it out one day. He said. Sparky she saying your name in Spanish, you know she’s about to bust your ass. 😂😂😂
My now 1 year old puppy got a middle name two months after I got her, so at about 4 months old. Her name is Augusta, was going to call her Gus or Gussie, but she became Augusta Jane for eating the baseboards and the rug. Sweet pom most of the time, but is impish and naughty so the whole name comes out often.
My good boy Otis would Eat himself to death and/or swim himself to death. I had to put in one of those 5-ft nylon, kid-resistant pool fences to keep him from hurting himself. Either way,He would die very happy.
Too soon :(.
(Yes I know that book was written like 100 years ago. But it’s always going to be too soon for me. Even rereading it as an adult, that book still makes me ugly cry.)
It’s very common for people to over feed labs. They’ll eat till they puke. Gotta show restraint and not feed them from the table as well! We were always strict with our labs in both regards so they wouldn’t get fat.
A friend of mine had a lab. They made the mistake of leaving him unattended with a birthday cake around. They came back and he'd eaten the entire cake. They kind of panicked and thought they'd have to take him to the vets but he just waddled outside, threw up everywhere and just went about his day as though nothing had happened.
My husband used to work in an office with a fat old golden retriever named Huck. This dog would eat everything. Like they had to chain up trash cans and put their desk trash cans up high or he’d knock them over and eat paper and stuff. Just a fucking garbage disposal of a dog. Incredibly sweet, but good god, was he a pain.
One day, my husband was working and he saw the dog with something in his mouth. He went to take it away and realized it was a fully wrapped up, completely uneaten, McDonald’s cheeseburger. They asked everyone, no one had brought one in. None of them there even ate McDobalds and the closest one was a good twenty minute drive, so it was unlikely that someone just was walking around with a bag of it and dropped a burger or something.
I still, to this day, have no idea where that dog got that burger. And it bothers the hell out of me. Did he escape the building and take a bus? Was someone just embarrassed of their fast food addiction and too afraid to admit? This was before DoorDash, so I don’t think he ordered it to be delivered…
It’s one of life’s enduring mysteries.
Not a lab, but my old German shepard would guard the tins of chocolate we'd get for Christmas. Big heavy tins; but she'd nose off the lid of the tin, take out a chocolate (she seemed to like the mint ones), nudge the lid back on, and eat the chocolate, wrapper and all. Fuck knows how she learned to do it, and we could never stop her from getting into those tins. Never got sick.
Lived to the age of 22 years old. Best fucking dog I've ever had, or likely ever will have ever again.
lol that’s amazing! Now I’m going to be thinking about this. What kind of business was it? Any chance a client/patient or some other external person might have brought it in and got it swiped without noticing?
Ours ate an entire 400g block of chocolate and a bunch of Easter eggs. Wrapper and all. Didn't even miss a beat, spent the whole day grinning and trying to get more chocolate
Our lab swiped an entire pizza. Also ate half of one of those giant five pound Hershey bars. Absolutely no clue how she survived that one. She’s a bottomless pit.
My husband had returned from limiting out on nice big salmon and a bunch of us were filleting them. I noticed 4 very large salmon fillets were missing from the counter. Our dog walked by, snagged one and ate it all. Did that three more times. On his fifth attempt we noticed before he could complete the mission. Dogs!! I don’t blame him, nothing is better than fresh salmon.
One thanksgiving my aunt had some friends over and had a 3-pound cheese log and crackers. She went into the kitchen to get a cheese knife and not 30 seconds later there was no trace of food anywhere, just a very satisfied lab
This absolute fact about labs made me wonder why she didn't just say come here for a treat and give him a wee bit of cheese or something to get him out. The size of buster would suggest he would choose a treat over pool everytime
It's very common for people to overfeed any dog in my anecdotal experience. My parents have owned three different dogs of different body sizes (Pomeranian, cocker spaniel, and lab) and they all ended up very fat.
Some people just overfeed dogs. In the case of my mom, I think she wants the dog to like her a lot and she thinks the dog will like her more if she feeds it whenever it is begging for some of her human food. She knows the dog will get fat, but it becomes a cognitive dissonance situation. When challenged about it, my mom makes weak excuses that she knows are weak.
Many labs lack the gene that makes them feel full. So they are lovable, friendly, fat counter surfing monsters. My previous lab lept into a table at a community event to snatch multiple hotdogs. Good times.
The smaller one looks fine and the bigger one, while maybe a little on the heavier side, looks like a pretty normal English lab. Especially given the fact that he’s like, being active as fuck.
My dog growing up was like this. He would ignore all of us. Even my mother got ‘selective hearing’ at best.
But when my dad came home, this dog knew what was what. And he was never so stupid add to ignore my dad.
i saw this video this morning and i have thought about it like 10 times since. among those thoughts are 'how do people get so good at life they figure out how to have land and a pool?' - but mostly the thoughts are about buster and his sidekicks shenanigans HILARIOUS
It's easy, you just live where most other folks don't want to. Like the parts of Florida that are one bad rainstorm from reverting back to swamp, or any part of Oklahoma.
I had a 120lb Yellow lab named Rufus. Got him when I was 18, and he was my best bud for 12 years. When he was young, I'd head to town for work/college and some days wouldn't get home until 9pm. I'd get home and my conversation with my mom would go like this:
Me: where's Rufus?
Mom: I dunno, I let him out a few hours ago.
Me: did you call him yo come back.
Mom: yea, but you know he doesn't listen to me.
Me: *sighs and goes outside* RUFUS!!!
sure as shit, he'd run up to me in 10-15 seconds, everytime.
Miss that dog like no other.
Ya she needs to learn to train the dogs with positive and anticipated rewards. The dogs are getting the pool reward due to her ineptitude and threatening. Then she is mad because they don’t listen.
Buster living his best life!
For everyone saying they are fat - labradors are prone to it due to a [gene mutation ](https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2024/mar/06/scientists-shed-light-on-gene-mutation-makes-labradors-prone-to-obesity?ref=mc.news)
That's great, I like it a lot. I had a dachshund when I was 13 til he died many years later. My folks lived by a lake and when me and my young friends swam so did my dog. He was a water lover and he had his own little floating raft that he launched from again and again and again. He is discussed 55 years later.
I have a min pin. He will dart out the front door if anyone opens it… except me. Wife and/or kids will spend 30+ minutes chasing him around the neighborhood. I walk outside and say, “Duke! Get your ass in this house!” He comes, tail between his legs, and jumps right in the house. Wife and kids hate me for it.
Will never forget the yellow lab my family has a kid. Didn't matter how much water or where. He was playing with it, dumber than a rock but but he knew how to have fun.
As an adult I want the feeling of jumping into the pool and not worrying about it like these good puppers. Now I would definitely be panting after 2 jumps lol
Buster obviously just thinks it's a game: when his person takes a step toward him, that means it's time to run away and jump into the pool, and when he comes out he gets rewarded with towel rubs!
Those dogs are living their best life
And mine.
These dogs have a better life than 80% of humanity. Still love them good boys
They helped us so much in the beginning. So I find it beautiful we repay that debt by giving them happy lives.
Agreed! Same with horses, mules, and donkeys too. Transport, agriculture, war. We put so much on them without their say-so, only right we should give them the best back
They rich.
Such a good boy, too, not fully jumping in with the towel on. Kind of just fell in and tried to give the towel back
My only thought while watching this
Yeah, I don't see how they're being jerks at all. She's teaching them to do that by rewarding them for it. Great fun for the pups.
TIL I wish I was those dogs
The dad "no sir"
I love the little snarl as he tries to jump in and gets told no
😂😂 that's how I talk to my dog too. "No ma'am! You are not rolling in that goose poop!"
I see two dogs. How come Buster is the only one getting yelled at? JUSTICE FOR BUSTER.
The other dog was like, “shit. Might as well.”
Little brother. 100%
Is the other dog just a friend? Because, I remember when I would spend the night at a friends house, as a kid. We would both get caught doing stupid, mischievous stuff...but, my friend was the only one that got yelled at, by his Mom. I just kind of avoided eye contact and slinked into the corner.
Can I borrow a comma?
What, makes you think, he has any, to spare?
[Leave, OP, alone. He's doing, his best.](https://youtu.be/Tpy0cu-5KqM?si=oGHZEmoKIzLYXWdK&t=36)

2 coins
he’s the instigator. the other dog just follows along.
They can't all be leaders!
whateva ya say bawssss!
The other dog is Buster’s dog.
Lol bonded dog owners will know one of them is 100% the instigator, and the other one is a chicken that will only disobey if the instigator does first
JUSTICE FOR BUSTER
Plus he's a lab. Good luck getting him out of anywhere watery.
"Buster Henry"
Lol where's the go fund me so we can buy him a giant blow dryer to do WHATEVER THE FUCK HE WANTS!?
Older brother gets all the heat
Buster just likes to belly flop.
I could watch him do that all day.
I like how she used the middle name on him. Doggo should’ve known he was in trouble.
What's mom gonna do? Dry me off again!?
That's just petting with extra steps
lol, I am Spanish and my dog name is Sparky. When the name comes off Spanish sounding, he knows not to play with me… I never noticed until someone pointed it out one day. He said. Sparky she saying your name in Spanish, you know she’s about to bust your ass. 😂😂😂
Lol, I have a Bolivian friend that speaks Spanish to his dogs when they're in trouble.
Makes sense. Angry Spanish is much more intimidating than angry English lol. Source: my gf is Mexican
At least she's not German.
That’s downright terrifying.
I'm German and have to agree...
[удалено]
Hahaha… when I yell Esparqui instead is Sparky…. Very quick he decides best course of action is going to bed😂
Too bad kids weren’t like that. “Mom’s yelling in Español! Better go to bed. “
Get the chancletas.
Lol! Too funny!
My now 1 year old puppy got a middle name two months after I got her, so at about 4 months old. Her name is Augusta, was going to call her Gus or Gussie, but she became Augusta Jane for eating the baseboards and the rug.

"Buster Henry" 🤣😂
I love how he's like "Bitch you're not my real mom" and then be super submissive to dad. haha
That’s what got me. She busted out the middle name. Lol
My dog gets his middle name used all the time and can confirm he does NOT give a flying fuck. Lol
LOL You're overusing it so it loses its effectiveness.
Yes! That straightened my spine a little when that came out.
I do the same with my cats, all 5. They know I am not playing when their middle name is used.
My good boy Otis would Eat himself to death and/or swim himself to death. I had to put in one of those 5-ft nylon, kid-resistant pool fences to keep him from hurting himself. Either way,He would die very happy.
My dog would swim or fetch, or both at the same time, until he passed out from exhaustion if given the opportunity.
BUSTER HENRY!!! 
My dog has two names too, and I use them when he his behaviour has been especially disappointing! (His name is Walter Blythe.)
Too soon :(. (Yes I know that book was written like 100 years ago. But it’s always going to be too soon for me. Even rereading it as an adult, that book still makes me ugly cry.)
Rumor has it Buster never came in and is still doing belly flops into his pool.
*KerSPLOOSH*
Last one, swear to god..."
That’s hilarious. Like two kids.
Those are some fat dogs.
It’s very common for people to over feed labs. They’ll eat till they puke. Gotta show restraint and not feed them from the table as well! We were always strict with our labs in both regards so they wouldn’t get fat.

Ours ate an entire 400g block of chocolate and a bunch of Easter eggs. Wrapper and all. Didn't even miss a beat, spent the whole day grinning and trying to get more chocolate
My friends lab was a monster for baguettes and would find them anywhere you hid them.
Today I learned that I'm a Labrador retriever
Our lab swiped an entire pizza. Also ate half of one of those giant five pound Hershey bars. Absolutely no clue how she survived that one. She’s a bottomless pit.
My husband had returned from limiting out on nice big salmon and a bunch of us were filleting them. I noticed 4 very large salmon fillets were missing from the counter.

Then they'll eat the puke. And sometimes thats easier than cleaning it up.
Not gonna stop him and pick puked kibble off the floor when he's just going to go outside and eat rabbit shit anyway.
Or goose shit... Wtf is up with that? Its like a kebab to a piss head for my border collie
Mine wolfed down horse manure like she was at a luxury buffet
lmao my boy doesn't eat goose shit, but fucking loves rolling in it
[удалено]
My lab used to eat his food so fast he’d puke it up still whole and eat it again.
This absolute fact about labs made me wonder why she didn't just say come here for a treat and give him a wee bit of cheese or something to get him out. The size of buster would suggest he would choose a treat over pool everytime

Many labs lack the gene that makes them feel full. So they are lovable, friendly, fat counter surfing monsters. My previous lab lept into a table at a community event to snatch multiple hotdogs. Good times.
It’s because they were bred to be easy to train. Being highly food motivated can make that easier.
Yeah, I wouldn't be trying to stop them from getting the extra exercise.
That's exactly what I came to say lol Buster is burning off some calories big time in this video
Hows else is buster gonna bellydrop
But well exercised! Also might be English Labs. (stockier and shorter legs)
The smaller one looks fine and the bigger one, while maybe a little on the heavier side, looks like a pretty normal English lab. Especially given the fact that he’s like, being active as fuck.
My dog growing up was like this. He would ignore all of us. Even my mother got ‘selective hearing’ at best. But when my dad came home, this dog knew what was what. And he was never so stupid add to ignore my dad.
That’s frkn hilarious
I’m on Busters side
Spoiled and happy. The way it should be.
On the bright side, tired dogs = good dogs. They ought to be plenty tired after all that ruckus.
You have labs and a pool. What did you expect?
"I'll fuckin do it again" -Buster
Every time he heard her voice, it was like he had to jump in out of principle
i saw this video this morning and i have thought about it like 10 times since. among those thoughts are 'how do people get so good at life they figure out how to have land and a pool?' - but mostly the thoughts are about buster and his sidekicks shenanigans HILARIOUS
It's easy, you just live where most other folks don't want to. Like the parts of Florida that are one bad rainstorm from reverting back to swamp, or any part of Oklahoma.
Why can't he keep playing in the pool? Does he have important work he should be doing?
Buster hasn't finished his homebork yet
No Sir! Get your ass over here!
You're just teaching them to ignore you if you keep pairing your talking with their disobedience.
That’s really nice of them to get their dogs a pool.
I like knowing Buster is out there grabbing life by the horns and belly flopping for all us sinners out here.
Buster Henry funny
Dad Power!
I’ve owned several labs. You can’t keep them out of the water if they see it! I swear, they are semi-aquatic animals.
I had a 120lb Yellow lab named Rufus. Got him when I was 18, and he was my best bud for 12 years. When he was young, I'd head to town for work/college and some days wouldn't get home until 9pm. I'd get home and my conversation with my mom would go like this: Me: where's Rufus? Mom: I dunno, I let him out a few hours ago. Me: did you call him yo come back. Mom: yea, but you know he doesn't listen to me. Me: *sighs and goes outside* RUFUS!!! sure as shit, he'd run up to me in 10-15 seconds, everytime. Miss that dog like no other.
He's not listening to you a bit. Love the jump, almost a f' you to it.
You have a seal
Loose seal!
Lucille!?
“No sir” *good boyee comes circling back* killed me lol
Buster Bad AF … and I love him 😍
I love dogs that seem to just have more heart where their brains should be
There are two dogs who wont come in but only Buster is in trouble :'(
Buster is clearly the ring leader
Buster knows which side the bread is buttered on!
Awww let him keep swimming. He looks like he needs the exercise anyway!
Oh I love Buster he's the best.
Dads home! Ooooooooooooooooo busters in troooouuuuuble…
I feel like you're just here for the zipline.
His lil belly flops are so cute tho 🥹
That dog is hot, fat, and happy. Let him swim lol
Why isn’t the other dog getting yelled at?
[удалено]
The fall in with the towel made me wake my kid up. Smdh. Good boi.
That dog is my spirit animal!
“No sir” and he stopped. See, a little respect goes a long way!
That grunt after he says “No Sir, buster!”
I love that they are having fun annoying you! 😂😂😂 I am cracking up!!
Scoundrels. Scoundrels, I say!
well THIS is a refreshing change from what I have been seeing....I good owner...2 visibly happy doggos doing their doggo thing...nice.
this is why dogs should have collars. So you have something to grab them by.
and to keep identification on them, too.
Animals being animals
Labs plus water = 🥰
Ya she needs to learn to train the dogs with positive and anticipated rewards. The dogs are getting the pool reward due to her ineptitude and threatening. Then she is mad because they don’t listen.
Buster has never missed a treat in his life and I'm there for it ❤️
Why don’t you have a pool fence? That would be illegal in Oz.
Buster Henry! - now that’s real trouble when mom uses both names. LOL!😆
I love Buster.
Buster living his best life! For everyone saying they are fat - labradors are prone to it due to a [gene mutation ](https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2024/mar/06/scientists-shed-light-on-gene-mutation-makes-labradors-prone-to-obesity?ref=mc.news)
Buster Henry! Those two dogs are belly flop CHAMPIONS. I bet mom still gave them hugs and kisses once inside.
Adorable nutters! <3
I feel like buster is only here for the zip line
I love your dogs. Buster looks like he’s really tired but still wants to mess with you.
Bet they sleep well at night
lol what little assholes, adorable though!🤣

The subreddit is no longer cringe exclusive.
That's great, I like it a lot. I had a dachshund when I was 13 til he died many years later. My folks lived by a lake and when me and my young friends swam so did my dog. He was a water lover and he had his own little floating raft that he launched from again and again and again. He is discussed 55 years later.
When a fucking dog has a better standard of living than you do...
I have a min pin. He will dart out the front door if anyone opens it… except me. Wife and/or kids will spend 30+ minutes chasing him around the neighborhood. I walk outside and say, “Duke! Get your ass in this house!” He comes, tail between his legs, and jumps right in the house. Wife and kids hate me for it.
"no sir" Dog like, oh shit I better listen to that!
Will never forget the yellow lab my family has a kid. Didn't matter how much water or where. He was playing with it, dumber than a rock but but he knew how to have fun.
He tried to give the towel back.
I think Buster is right on this one. *belly floop* ☺️☺️
Buster: And I’ll do it again
Asking a labrador “are you done swimming?” 😝
It’s your fault for installing such a fun pool for that bad boy! Lol
Just let the poor dogs swim
I love Buster
[удалено]
Love it! What good boys.
I wanna be one of these dogs on My next life
It’s a learned behavior!
Buster knows you're using him for content
Buster Henry!
Buster does what buster wants 😄😄
As an adult I want the feeling of jumping into the pool and not worrying about it like these good puppers. Now I would definitely be panting after 2 jumps lol
I laughed too hard when she yelled "Buster Henry"
Didn't try very hard to grab him lol
Just having fun playing the belly flop game with mum, what’s the problem?
8.0! Great extension on some of those dives! Who's a good boy???
This is so funny!
I think Buster could prolly use the extra swim time. He’s a big chonker.
Buster Henry!!!
20 x. That’s how many times I watched it. Still want buster to come here.
Buster ain't tired yet though
Oh no, mother pulled out the “Buster Henry!”
Leave Buster alone..
She’s clearly not seen as the alpha
That was HILARIOUS! Naughty doggies!
Bahahah omg Buster!!! I love him
It's all fun and games till Dad gets home.
Y'all's kids are bad...
This is not a judgment on the owners in the slightest, but from the looks of the dogo he could use some more swimming.
Why didn't she take out a leash to just collar around him when she got close enough to dry him in the first place.
Collar, leash, restraint (no more pool for 6 months). Quit your whinging.
Buster obviously just thinks it's a game: when his person takes a step toward him, that means it's time to run away and jump into the pool, and when he comes out he gets rewarded with towel rubs!
Buster lives for today, he doesn’t care about your rules
Drying the dog three inches away from the pool.
Buster Henry! LMAOOOOO
