I imagine Ellie must always be the SEEKER in you game. If she hid, all you would have to do is ask, "Where is Ellie?" Her vigorously wagging tail would reveal her hiding place immediately! She clearly loves playing with you.

[@thegoldenellie]

This is a great concept. Give us a few weeks to see if this is possible

[@JoshuaMartian-go3tm]

@@thegoldenellie Do y'all have kids? If so , got ur own personal search dog. Never lose a kid EVER. 😁

That is just the freaking sweetest!! Good for you guys training her so well!!

Thanks!

[@stevenperry9762]

You two made my morning. Keep playing.

[@thegoldenellie]

I’m glad! I’m currently hiding from her as I type this comment. Can’t give enough credit to The Dodo.

[@louisevanderlinde8590]

A grown man playing children's games with his dog. Love it!!!

[@ianmorris4922]

Notice that as soon as Ellie starts to use her olfactory senses,the owner gets found pretty much immediately!

[@thegoldenellie]

When the bush is breathin’, hoomans be schemin’. Thanks for the collab!

[@MichaelMacCracken]

Such a good time!

[@veganpeace7890]

This started my day in the most heartwarming way! Thanks Ellie!!!!

[@thegoldenellie]

Glad we can help your week start off right!

[@lauraragazzi464]

Who has more fun, Ellie or the owners? She is really a lucky dog

[@thegoldenellie]

This is the main debate in our household

[@justbee.mirrorrorrim]

​@@thegoldenellieI played hide & seek with my two dogs for years. I truly think it brings the joy of our youth back (I was just slower to get up when I was discovered!) 😀 My love to you all! ❤️❤️❤️

[@Catherinzsl]

I'm picturing a canine reboot of "Taken," with Ellie in Liam Neeson's role. _"I have a very particular set of skills... I WILL find you."_

[@deejay6016]

Hahaha!!!! This reminded me of playing hide & seek with my old dog who has since passed away, although I didn't go this extreme. He had a method of finding me. 1st, he used his eyesight. If that didn't work, then he would use his nose. If he still couldn't find me, his last tactic is to cry. He always won. He loved this game which we pretty much played everyday. One time I hid in the walk-in master bedroom closet which is pitch dark without the lights on. I stood in the chair. He kept coming back to the closet to find me. He was literally standing next to the chair but he couln't see me. I busted out laughing because he started crying next to me. He knew I was nearby but he couldn't see me. I still miss him. He was my soulmate. I had adopted him when he was 7 weeks old and he passed away at 14 1/2.

[@robertgriffith9703]

I don't know Who's More Enthusiastic, Ellie or Mike and Rachel! They're So Proud of Their Little Fur Baby!😊

[@bluemac9476]

What a fun time you're giving your dog. Wonderful video. Thanks for sharing ❤

[@kanjuro8926]

"It's always a matter of time before she finds you". Indeed, you can't be lost with a dog

[@gutmicrobiomequeen]

@0:41 The moment she realized that she found him!! She was SO excited 🥰

[@tammy6610]

Never borinh. Shes a good girl.

[@hothotheat3000]

She went RIGID when she locked on target. Good girl!

[@aytac007]

what a sweet family, such a sweet dog ellie is , that deserves loving owners like you guys.

[@KP-nx8lo]

It’s a comfort to know that if you ever get lost in your home or the neighborhood, all you have to do is turn Ellie loose! 😊

[@carolpagnon3964]

Love this 😅

This is such amazing enrichment for Ellie. You make her life so exciting and intriguing with each new challenge. She's a very bright girl.

How lucky to have such a fun beautiful dog.

[@stephaniewilliams9469]

HILARIOUS! She’s got a good sniffer!

[@EmersumBiggins]

I play hide and seek with my golden retriever almost every night 😂

[@notme2day]

I play it with my mini aussie. The hardest trick for me is to sneak away from my velcro doogo first. LOL

[@Gman-cr8rq]

Not only FUN. But is very good enrichment for the dog. Too cool.

[@kimmykimak3737]

Omg she's just the sweetest 💓

[@mariahlaguna3950]

I loved when the music had a dramatic stop 😂😅

[@melz3752]

So sweet! I used to play hide in plain sight with my dog and he loved it. I love the bond these two have 🥰

[@karmaoutlaw]

What a fantastic relationship!!!! Love it!!! 😂

[@Petr.500]

The dog is straight - with high intelligence. And a keen sense of smell.

[@JoshuaMartian-go3tm]

I don't know if this couple has kids but if they did, they could play this game where their dog seeks out their kids. Built in search dog. They will never be lost.😁🦮

[@user-hx7fz2kr9o]

What a clever dog !!!

[@ninalugo8709]

I agree and she gets a good nose too .

[@thegoldenellie]

Thanks!

Our fur children still love us even when we’re ridiculous. They are too pure for this world. 😭🙏💜

My husband and I use to hide from our dog and he always found us. Such fun.

She is so smart, also cute,precious and adorable.

Aww

[@broberts2043]

How sweet! (Btw, thank you for the “where I am” instead of “where I’m at.”)

[@Davepool-hs7vr]

Of course Ellie is going to win Hide and Seek, dogs have a great sense of smell.

[@marshafick4006]

I loved doing that with my GS, best nose ever!!! Wherever I hid, inside or out, she was so fast!!

[@appolop8273]

Kids will never grow up, especially those that are adults. They will always have the kid mentality in them.Bravo for being so young and continue having fun.

[@carabiner7999]

I love this! I used to train Working Dogs, including S&Rs, and dogs love having a job, and they love play. What a great way to enrich your relationship and time together! It's interesting how you can see that the slightest wind has picked the scent a bit, and she has to find it as it shifts from air scenting to the ground.

[@debbiebogart5742]

Imagine if you got the Neighbourhood kids in on the hide n seek! She would have a major blast!

[@marshafick4006]

Hay Dad.😂😂

[@alenkerr8533]

Its like this dog puts its senses through the paces...

[@DogAteMyPopcorn]

My favorite dogs are rescue dogs, followed by golden retrievers. Sending Ellie lots of praise and belly rubs.

[@SilverAuntie]

She will always find you, no matter how long it takes. She loves her hooman!!!❤❤❤

There's no way you can hide from a dog...they will always sniff you out!!! LOL LOL LOL..

Go Ellie! This brings back some wonderful memories. I used to have two cats and hid & seek was their favorite game. No matter how well I hid (including one time up in the attic) they always found me.

I would LOVE to play hide and seek with Ellie!! She is a beautiful sight to see!! She is a joy to watch!! Thank You for sharing Ellie's awesome story with us!!😊❤!!

[@Jenifer_R_]

I can see this being turned into a Disney movie where Ellie has to find her family lost in the woods.

[@ScottRivera]

This is my favorite thing to do with our wire haired terrier. She gets so wound up when she doesn't find you right away.

[@shalacarter6658]

This is so sweet. And the ghillie suit will also be helpful when hiding from his wife when she wants him to do the dishes. ;)

[@vonBelfry]

Oh she COMPLETELY played along with you on the bench. She didn't give you a "EUREKA" moment, she just was like "Oh I wonder where he could be~?" and just went right to him when she was bored. Don't get me wrong, that just makes it triply as adorable!

[@mallrat5611]

I laughed out loud like I’m a part of the game when she found you! Keep playing !❤️

[@whateverwhatever6496]

This Couple is Fantastic!

[@paulgreen2401]

I thought I was the only one who played hide-and-seek with my (Mum and Dad's) dog. Great fun, and it's good problem-solving for them, too.

[@DC-id2ih]

This is adorable! Back in the 90s/early 2000s - hide and Seek was the favorite game of my sister's dog!....I would distract the little guy with a treat or a game of tug-of-war while she would hide and I would then challenge him in an excited voice to go find her...at which point he knew the game was on!!!.....He wasn't always as successful as this beautiful Golden...but he did give it the old college try and we all had loads of fun. Bandit was such a sweet/special dog!!

[@susan7204]

This is hilarious! Maybe she could be a part-time sniffer for the police department!! 😆

[@thetechietoffee]

The nose poking into the sofa. 😂😂

[@antoniusrono]

Wonderful family ❤❤❤

[@edlane1883]

Made me laugh! I used to play hide and seek with my dogs. They would get so excited when they found dad!

[@marthaelenabrenesorozco2953]

IT'S NICE where ELLIE lives, I wish my house was like that.

[@BobbyTheDogUSA]

Bobby and I loved playing hide and seek. Once I gave him a chance to hide, he stood behind an upright vacuum. Dude, I can still see you!

[@bittycavmart4874]

Con un padre humano extremo esa perrita lo pasa fantástico y aprende maniobras de inteligencia.

[@tmg1262]

He should do that disappearing test with the blanket or something

[@SuperSenshi]

She'd be great as one of those dogs that find people lost after an avalanche

[@brightantwerp]

This is so much fun. The suit is next level!

Very strange game but as long as it works for that wonderful dog.

[@ptaylor4923]

Oh, that's PRICELESS! ❤

[@lauriepolden6594]

Play hide with food with my puppy. I hide it all over the kitchen all over the living room and all over the bedroom and all over the bathroom wherever I can find and she will find every single morsel and she knows if there’s another one cause she won’t stop until she finds it. I’ve never had a piece of food not be found, it’s fun and it’s exciting for her. She loves to play hide.

[@coreyhamby2989]

Her nose will always win out. Once she hones in on the smell and can decide where its strongest she seems to have a revelation of "oh i got you now"

[@everettvanwinkle9004]

Totally Awesome 🐾🐾❤❤

Good girl. She using her nose to find you ❤😂

You can even have her become a search dog. The ones who find missing people and children. Such a good girl, Ellie!
