Golden Retriever goes bananas when marine mom comes home

If you needed another reminder of just how much our canine friends love us, then look no further than this video. A Golden Retriever named Oshie goes absolutely bananas when he sees his Marine mom after a long deployment.

As a Marine, Oshie’s mom Nancy often takes long trips away from her fur baby. This latest trip had her going all the way to Norway for a very long time.

It’s tough for pet parents not to be able to tell their pets how long they will be gone. From their perspective, you’re there one moment and gone the next.

When you do come home, though, it’s like you’ve come back from the grave, and that’s just how Oshie reacted when Nancy walked back into the home after her long time away.

Oshie leaps up at his mom, sniffs her, and rolls all over Nancy, doing everything he can to get as close as possible.

According to animal psychology, this isn’t learned behavior but genuine emotion. According to some studies, a dog’s brain reacts in similar ways chemically and neurologically to that of a two-year-old child.

Regardless of the scientific reason for Oshie’s lovable antics, the depth of this dog’s emotions is clear to see. So, if you ever find yourself wondering if your animal companion loves you, think back to how happy they are to see you when you come through the front door.
