This dog looks like he just finished a full workday, even though he is only getting cuddles. In this sleepy Golden Retriever yawning clip, he sits on the couch while his person scratches under his chin. His eyes droop, his tongue peeks out, and then the yawns arrive like clockwork. The joke lands because the dog, named Harvey, looks so serious about being “exhausted,” and a bright, cozy living room makes it even sweeter.
Golden Retriever yawning while getting pets steals hearts
The account @mygoldenharvey shared the reel about 16 hours ago with the caption, “Today absolutely drained Harvey.” The Golden Retriever sits on a light couch while someone rubs his chin. The on-screen text reads, “nobody yawns bigger than an unemployed, debt-free dog who sleeps all day and gets pet by everyone.” The audio credits Hans Zimmer and Camille for “Turnaround.” The post, showing 1,680 likes as of now, turns a simple petting moment into a punchline.
Golden Retrievers often lean into gentle touch, especially around the chin and neck. Many dogs yawn when they feel relaxed, calm, or slightly overstimulated. Harvey’s slow blinks suggest he is content, not stressed. The soft music helps the cozy tone, too. This Golden Retriever yawn video feels like a tiny reminder that dogs can be dramatic.
The clip starts with Harvey sitting upright, looking sleepy but polite. A hand scratches under his jaw, and his mouth loosens. He opens into a huge yawn, then resets with a blank stare. A second yawn follows as the chin rubs continue. He looks away like he cannot believe how tired he is.
Reactions were warm and delighted. One commenter wrote, “Poor baby, has to sit still while getting loved up !!!” Another said, “Such a beautiful, precious soul! You are all blessed.” A third added, “Tired from eating, sleeping, barking, walks, poop, eating and sleeping. Definitely needs a holiday!” Another gushed, “Terrific yawn!”
