Dog And The Dad Who Didn't Want One

[@werdna1969]

Dads who says no dog are usually those who once had their heart broken by a beloved dog passing away.

[@PandorasFolly]

Am a dad, I came here to say this. The emotional weight of knowing sometime in the next 12 years you'll have to go through loosing your best friend once again is a lot.

[@eatmyags]

My baby is at the end, she is 16 and skinny..I know when she passes I will be heartbroken, hell just thinking about it kills me.

[@janicetaylor8794]

I lost my very best friend 7 months ago and my heart is broken but I'm sure we'll meet again because we loved each other. God Bless Henry. 💔💕💕💕😙

[@maryschneider2759]

My Dad and I had a Siamese cat ...Spooky. That cat loved him and when he passed my dad cried. I never ever saw him cry ever except when that cat passed.

[@ArvisSc]

i came here to laugh not to feel...

[@mikkelnpetersen]

Dad: "I don't want a dog" 2 days later: *Best friends for life*

[@stevenj9970]

There is nothing like the love and connection between a boy and his dog. Even when the ‘boy’ is 60 years old or more.

[@Viv1398]

My Dad loved dogs and always spoilt them. It was so hard seeing the grief and pain in his eyes whenever they died. They are all reunited now, and one day I hope to be with them all again and sharing all that love. RIP Dad, Whisky, Shep, Brandy, Tinker, Spot, Tara, Bruno and Chappie xxx

[@rob_cd]

😭♥️♥️♥️

[@PorcupineKline]

It’s spoiled

[@karonmorrison2531]

I regard losing a pet akin to losing a family member. You grieve the same, the pain is real.

[@wendystewart1867]

OMG I'm crying. So so sorry

[@tobiasgoldman]

May their memories be blessed.

[@Eugene_Connor]

Nobody can resist the charms of a dog. They're just the best.

[@creativestudio101]

They truly are

[@WelshLioness]

"and he wipes them on me" 😂😂😂😂 nice to see Dad & Sterls 🤗

[@yevgeniyaleshchenko849]

Lmao that was hillarious))))

[@duneb.l.6429]

hahahah that part was specially funny for me because my boyfriend does the same with our dogs 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@moongoddess8568]

Sweet, beautiful dog and story. ❤️

[@Blaine_St_Cloud]

A dog will give you some of the best moments of your life, and one of the worst.

[@HippieMosquitoQuatro]

this is so poetically trueeeee!!! there's always a catch to all good things T_T

[@kp4949]

Wow,so true so true.....

[@darrylgregory6368]

Like Queen Elizabeth said. Grief is the price you pay for love.

[@creativestudio101]

So true.

[@joshualee4774]

"I'm his favorite son". Sterling you are so confident!!! I can feel dad's love 💝🎀

[@andariegos9466]

This was my husband with our Golden. My hubby even got an RV so he could vacation with us and not be left behind. It was hard for all of us when he passed away. But my husband definitely took it very hard. RIP, Copper. 🐕💔

[@thomasbranham4374]

I was in the same boat about not wanting a dog, simply because it’s a huge commitment. One year later, I couldn’t imagine mine and my family’s life without him

[@scottrussell1006]

Funny how that happens. I honestly think I’d die a slow death if anything happened to my dog.

[@Celatra]

@@scottrussell1006 that's whats kinda happening to me rn so like yeah. Dogs live for such a short amount of time but they save your life

[@artdonovandesign]

​​@@scottrussell1006 I know. We all worry so much about our dogs. They're angels in our lives.

[@AbbyC543]

It makes me so happy to see how much love Sterling gets all the time. He deserves every bit of it. He is such a wonderful boy.

[@mirandahiemstra497]

I think ALL dogs deserve to have this much love... ♥♥♥

[@repeat911]

This dog gives as good as he gets. Dogs have an amazing capacity to love and typically ask for so little in return for their undying love, loyalty and protection

[@gastondeveaux3783]

Dogs are heaven on earth. And goldens are just loads of love. So great to see a beautiful dog being loved.

[@SM-yw4cy]

I follow a lot of dog channels but Sterling is the best. Such a fluffy cutie.

[@LifeofSterlingNewton]

Aww thank you ❤️

[@louisevanderlinde8590]

Lets just talk about how gorgeous this golden retriever is!! Watching this video and friendship is more soothing than any medication on a difficult day. Trust me, I know.

[@fifen1846]

My grandfather didn't want a dog. My grandmother surprised him with a dog. Since then he has always had a dog. He pass away last summer and his pup lives with my aunt and her dog.

[@emesass5959]

My dad NEVER wanted a dog but bought one for my mom. He loved the dog so much. Big soft inside dads are. I agree- who could resist loving Sterling?

[@abhi739]

jai Shri Ram Bhai

[@chrishey7109]

I have never agreed more. Dogs love is unconditional, you never forget ones that have passed they stay in your heart forever ❤

[@d_dpo]

I wish I could hug Sterling.... Such a cutie! His eyes are so soulful! Love this little baby boy!

[@garycambridge5513]

My dad was exactly the same - didn’t want one and of course as soon as he met Ollie our golden retriever he fell in love and ended up bonding with him more than my mum - sadly dad passed away in hospital 2 years later and never got a chance to say goodbye to Ollie but I hope they will meet again one day - Ollie is now 14 and can’t believe he’s lived this long - dogs really are the best ❤

[@PawRangerss]

🥲😭😭😭

[@FireMinstrel]

My mother was the same way until we got our first golden retriever. That was 26 years ago and she'll probably keep having them for the rest of her life. She even cooks for our dog now!

[@rajeevpalthukral764]

God bless her

I lost a 4 year old Cocker Spaniel at age 4 for Nugget, and it ripped my heart out. That was some trying times after cancer got my Mom. I promised myself- No more Dogs til I own my own house. Now, I have a 7 year old Golden Retriever and 7 year old Great Pyrenees Boxer Mix. They are spoiled but they give back a Tremendous amount of Love. I would not want to live without them.

[@jmg82886]

So beautiful. Truly man’s best friend.

[@conorsleftshoulder]

This is what happiness looks like 💖

[@kathleenscullion8348]

Complete explanation of how dogs extend and enrich our lives. Bravo!

[@flbizowner9384]

I was that dad too. Until I got my golden. They are impossible not to fall in love with. They are the most loving, goofy, trainable, trusting, playful and smart pups around! Hail to the goldens!!

[@anitainmo489]

I don't think there is a soul around Sterling that would not love him? Just look at him.

[@LifeofSterlingNewton]

Agreed ❤️❤️

[@iGAL330]

Michael Vick.

[@paolaucci5302]

He's adorable beyond comprehension! 😍😍😍

[@johnjtplastering6991]

That's one beauty of a dog

[@jameslawrence5912]

​@@iGAL330 good point.

[@rubytuesday9881]

Every time I see his face, I gotta sit down - Sterling takes my breath away! I'll bet it only took dad 3.2 minutes to fall in love with him. Goldie's have perpetually smiling faces, gentle personalities, they're always doing something funny and their chocolate pudding eyes can make anyone melt. Doesn't it seem like the family member that doesn't want a dog, falls in love first?!?!?? :o)

[@Notintimidated2013]

Indeed man’s best friend.❤️🐕

[@iantomac]

...and this right here just proves why Retrievers are the best dogs in the world. You guys are so lucky to have Each other

[@marjoriegarland2798]

Wonderful sweet joyful Goldie!!!! Adorable ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ ❤️

[@melissaj.corbin7675]

What a precious bond between Dad and Sterling🥰☺️ Gift from God, I miss my Golden everyday.

[@adrienebailey9010]

It seems his best friend knew what was best for him. Animals are usually the best friends you'll ever have.

[@anaghavempaty8709]

Not all angels have wings. Some of them have a tail and four legs - Anonymous I couldn't agree more. Love you Sterling😍

[@nickbrunson9036]

Now thats what i call a really super great dad surely lifts my heart

[@jamesniezgoda5454]

Here's wishing many years of happiness together

[@jamierobinson4039]

FURBABIES ARE THE BEST LOVE THERAPY EVER!!! THE TWO OF THEM ARE A PAIR!!! I SMILED THE WHOLE TIME WATCHING THIS VIDEO!!! TYVM FOR CARING & SHARING!!! 💖🐾🐾💯🌟🎀✌️❣️

[@ellensc-hawley3720]

how could anyone not fall in love with Sterling. both have a friend for life. you won Sterling...good going.

[@pollycampbell3140]

The dad's that say no to dogs. They are the best dog daddy's ever.

[@oswaldoreyes9066]

BEAUTIFUL DOG 🐕. He loves his owner very much. You can actually see the happiness in this dogs eyes 🐶. BEAUTIFUL thing to see 👀. God bless.

[@aalekhmania]

This happens always, the person in the family who doesn't wants the dog, starts loving him the most 😅❤

[@lindamalena4399]

My dad actually didn't like dogs because he saw his brother get bitten by one as a kid. Now my sister got a dog and seeing my dad with her is just the cutest thing. The dog adores him and can't contain herself when she sees him, and she starts crying when he leaves.

[@stumpie04]

Beautiful dog how could you not love that face adorable ❤

[@mandycouperco2422]

Lucky dog. Lucky man. Great team. Super relationship.

[@susanferguson2216]

I love that video! Such a good Doggy Dad, Doris...you picked a great one!

[@kevincaldwell4707]

Sterling, you are a wonderful dog...no wonder dad ended up loving you as much as the rest of the family 👍

[@ricklindberg4228]

That's beautiful. It touches me personally because I love animals and at one time many years ago my Mom and I had 4 cats that were like family. We loved them and they loved us back. You are truly blessed to have a furry friend and companion. Animals love us unconditionally so the bond we form with them is priceless. God bless you and your beautiful dog.

[@changer4178]

They're both loving life 🤗🤗

[@marlaf1545]

Aww how sweet 😍 and you better bet Dad has a special bond with you too ! ❤ don't tell nobody but you are the favorite 😁

[@Lorrainecats]

You are so lucky to have such a sweet dad. He really loves you ❤

[@missmansfield6306]

I think part of the love is the breed. Golden Retrievers are angels!

[@Gingy50]

Sterling is so adorable 😍 When I watch his videos they always make me smile and laugh thank you 😘💖

Beautiful Story, Beautiful testimony from a Beautiful Dog

[@arnrjn6826]

So beautiful. Every time my dad comes home from work the first thing he does is give our dog a snack & hug and then carry on with other things

[@jennylouwaring3888]

What an absolutely beautiful dog. I love sterling so much. And Collin! ❤️ “no thanks not having a dog, no way” turned into thank god we got one - he’s now my best friend 🥰 Such a gorgeous dog xxx

[@nightofthe8765]

Dogs give 100% loyalty and 100% love and affection for nothing in return apart from a bit of food , water and a good old bit of fuss and a nice long walk . 🇬🇧

[@tracydutton7577]

That doggie is so handsome!!!!!!!!! What a great friend Sterling is

[@susan8471]

Sterling, I know your Dad is happy you are in the family. He loves you so much. You are, truly, a very good boy.❤️❤️

he's a clever dog, but I'm not sure he can read, much less, use a computer

[@Caledoniarose]

The reluctant love affair. Dad meets dog and it's head over heels. Brings a year to the eye. Happy tear. Very touching. Who could NOT love Sterling!?!?

[@paulaswann6990]

Beautiful video filled with unconditional love.

[@daisylouisecaldwell]

Daisy. My Dad was dead set against having the Pekinese puppy my Mom and I brought home - but he came to love her the most of all of us!! He always said, “The dog runs this house; I don’t!!” So true!!
