If you can get a puppy to sit still, I am amazed and terrified of you. There is absolutely no reason for puppies to be as nuts as they are, but they are. They’re lucky, because it’s one of the things most of us love about them. There are times when their wild antics can be so cute!

Puppy cuteness goes so far. There will always be moments when the puppy is the sweetest little thing in the whole entire world, and it makes up for all the bad in the world. It is literally impossible to stay mad at a sweet little puppy!
Recently, a bunch of little Labrador Retriever puppies got distracted by Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, as any good puppy would. The show is just captivating, OK? When they saw it, there was basically nothing they could do:
According to @labrador.d, this happened after the puppies had some designated outside time. They got to play and get some fresh air, which is awesome for puppies if you can swing it! That’s not something every breeder does, so when they do, it’s special!
However, outside time can definitely lead to some very rowdy dogs. They get so excited! They need to come inside and decompress after, and the way they do that is by having some time without any form of play. Putting on a TV show or something is a great way to get enrichment into your puppies without too much stimulation.

These puppies have a lot of space to run, and they’re not always kept to themselves, either. They get to play with the older dogs and even older puppies when they’re big enough, and it really helps teach them socialization skills before they’re off to their forever homes!
Nothing makes them happier than a good episode of Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, though. My sister was little when this show was in its prime, so I know that it can be kind of addicting! My favorite episode was always the one where they’re carving up a giant candy corn.
Maybe they should put that one on; then I bet the rowdy lone pup who’s not interested would love it!
