A heart-melting video of a Golden Retriever puppy's first encounter with a front-load washing machine has gone viral on Xiaohongshu, a popular Chinese social media platform. The puppy, named "Landmine", is less than three months old and belongs to a user known as "Conspicuous Landmine."
In the video, Landmine spots the washing machine for the first time and is immediately suspicious. The pup seems to believe that the appliance is some kind of monster that devours clothing. The situation escalates when Landmine notices its owner's precious dress tumbling inside the machine.
Driven by a heroic impulse, Landmine frantically paws at the washing machine door, seemingly desperate to rescue the beloved garment from the clutches of the "monster". The owner was so touched by Landmine’s protective instincts and the comical scene that they shared the video online.
The video quickly garnered over ten thousand views, with users expressing their amusement and adoration for the clueless yet courageous puppy. Comments ranged from "Golden Retriever puppies are really cute, so innocent and clueless" to "It even knows to rescue Mom's valuable clothes, this kid has a future."
One user even shared a similar experience, saying, "My cat was also like this when it saw a front-load washing machine for the first time, thinking its things were being eaten by a monster, and it was very anxious as well."
It's safe to say that Landmine's first encounter with the washing machine provided a healthy dose of laughter and showcased the adorable, sometimes bewildering, world of puppies.
