This Golden Retriever doesn’t mess around when it comes to his favorite takeout order!

After he moved up to the front, his mom held up the bag to his nose so he could smell it. Once he confirmed the order was up to his satisfaction, he smiled excitedly. In the video’s text overlay, his mom confirmed that he’s “making sure I didn’t mess up his order.”

She also added in the caption that “his order: plain burger. his expectations: extremely high 🍔.”

Can Golden Retrievers eat plain hamburgers?

According to the American Kennel Club, dogs can eat a plain, unseasoned patty, but it’s important to make sure there’s no additional seasoning or other ingredients on it.

Some burger toppings, like onions and garlic, can be dangerous to dogs and some may even cause “unpleasant digestive upset at best and pancreatitis at worst.”

The American Kennel Club also confirmed that a plain, unseasoned, and fully cooked meat patty can be “a healthy source of protein in addition to your dog’s regular, balanced diet.” But before feeding your dog a burger patty, they recommend “cutting the meat into bite-sized pieces to prevent choking hazards.”
