‘Animal abuse': Video of golden retriever riding jet ski like a professional sparks debate. Watch
When tired of mindlessly scrolling through social media, dog videos are always enjoyable as they combine heartwarming moments with cuteness. Whether it's a clever dog showing off a new trick or a puppy tumbling over stairs, such videos can instantly lift anyone's mood. A new video of a golden retriever riding a jet ski in Florida has caught the Internet's attention and is winning hearts.
According to the New York Post, the video was recorded by a woman having a waterfront dinner with her boyfriend. The viral clip shows the golden retriever donning a yellow lifejacket, sitting with poise on the jet ski as it gets pulled by a man using a water-propelled jet pack.
'The dog was seen wearing a yellow life jacket while it sat comfortably on the jet ski while its owner used a jetpack to pull it,' the caption read.

Although the video is being widely circulated and winning hearts, it has not sat well with several social media users who found the stunt to be dangerous for the dog. Reacting to the video, a user wrote, 'This is very dangerous for everyone.' Another user commented, 'This isn't cool or safe for the dog.'
'Horrible…animal abuse,' a third user reacted. 'I wanna be as unbothered as this dog living its best life on a jet ski,' a fourth user commented.
Last year, a video of a dog atop the oldest of the Seven Wonders of the World went viral. The dog was spotted by paramotorist Alex Lang, who was flying over the Great Pyramid of Giza. Lang zoomed in and saw a dog taking a stroll on the structure and barking at the birds flying overhead. According to reports, the dog eventually climbed down the Pyramid on its own and was taken to safety.
