In a viral TikTok video, a young woman spends the night at a date's house, only to wake up the next day to his golden retriever doing something hilarious.
The clip, shared in April under the username @divacookiemonster, shows the golden retriever standing on the bed right in front of the owner, bringing over her trousers, as if signaling that it is time to leave.
"That one time I stayed at a guy's house and his dog literally brought me my pants the next morning," the poster writes in the clip. "Well trained," she adds in the caption.
Golden retrievers are among the most-intelligent dog breeds, according to Countryside Veterinary Service, which places them fifth place on its list.
Golden retrievers are friendly, trusted family companions, known for their affectionate, outgoing personality. As a sporting breed, they also enjoy activities such as long runs, bike rides, hunting, and fetching a tennis ball or Frisbee.
Golden retrievers need lots of daily exercise to let out their energy, and prevent undesirable behaviors, keeping your pup happy and healthy.
Easily adaptable and exceptionally child-friendly, these dogs also get along very well with strangers, with other dogs, and even with cats.
The American Kennel Club (AKC) says that golden retrievers are eager to please, and easily trainable, and their training should begin as soon as you bring your puppy home, with group-based puppy kindergarten and basic obedience.
Their coat will require routine trimming and grooming, and they will also need nail trimming, teeth and ear cleaning, shampooing, bathing and drying. Because their coat blows approximately twice a year, you should never shave them.

Kayla posted: "Bet his owner has taught him this so he doesn't have to awkwardly ask you to leave."
Another user, Semidead_ wrote: "He's not even looking at you, clearly bro wants you OUT."
Ms. Ford added: "It's the lack of eye contact, he said 'I can't get attached.'"
