The joy of getting a new puppy is undeniable, and a Golden Retriever’s video proves that. Instagram user @pico.de.golden captures the kind of day that dog lovers dream about — their first encounter with their new pup.

Their owner wrote, "Gentle parenting at its finest," adding in the caption: "Lucy is the ideal gentle parent."

Golden Retriever brothers Sterling and Colin know this feeling all too well. Recently, a few people came to the house, and I'm sure you can guess how the pups reacted! Apologies to anyone who ever comes to my house because this is an exact scene I've lived a million times!
