There are a lot of firsts in a puppy’s life that we don’t think about until they happen. Baths, walks, and games of fetch are typical milestones, but what about their first experience with a weather event? You never know how they’ll react until it happens!
This is what Tsuki, an adorable Samoyed puppy, recently discovered. As the storm rolled in and clouds took over, it’s this funny pup’s response to the sound of thunder that’s one of the cutest things you’ll see this week!
First of all, Tsuki looks less like a real dog and more like a stuffie! In all her innocence, she had no idea what that booming sound was, and her face had the perfect reaction. She doesn’t seem scared at all, but more like curious as to what in the world made such a noise that disturbed her quiet time!

Another first in the Samoyed puppy’s life has to do with a certain healthy, crunchy, green snack that makes all the noises—celery. I don’t know why, but this is the ASMR sure to soothe your soul.
Samoyeds Are Known as ‘Smiling Dogs’
One look at Tsuki (or any pup like her) and you can see one of the Samoyed’s best traits: that dazzling smile! More than that, their sweet smile is functional. The upturned corners stop drool, so icicles can’t form in those wildly bitter cold conditions. They’re just so pretty, and don’t even know it!
These stunning canines are social, smart, and sometimes mischievous little angels who adore getting all the attention but also crave structure in training to live their best lives. As the original sled dogs, Samoyeds were bred to handle the coldest conditions with the kind of endurance ultramarathon runners train for.
Even with all of that going for them and all of their talents, thunder is the thing that got Tsuki all confused. Someone give that precious girl a hug for being such a trooper!
