Caught In The Act!
The clip starts with the mom running out of their apartment unit, calling out to her daughter. “Vanora, where are you guys going?” she says. As she was walking down the hallway, she spotted the little girl with their family dog, Taco. The cuties were caught in the act of escaping, already several feet away, and immediately got sent back home.
With their escape plan foiled, Taco the golden retriever led the way back to the apartment, while Vanora made sure to hang on to her fur buddy’s harness. Their mom couldn’t help but laugh at the adorable sight of the hilarious twosome.

Golden Retrievers Are The Best Family Dogs

Goldens are known to be one of the best dogs for families. They have a gentle and calm demeanor that makes them ideal to be around kids and babies. They are the third most popular dog breed in the U.S., according to American Kennel Club .
“Goldens, by nature, are lovers,” says Lutheran Church Charities president Tim Hetzner . This is exactly why humans, even the tiny ones, have so much love for them too.
