Golden retrievers struggle to climb up slide and reach owner
We all knew that one kid who would climb up the slide instead of actually sliding down it, usually because they were anti-establishment or still figuring out how the world works.
It was (at least) the latter case for Instagram dog Teddy Bear and his larger companion Oliver, as they struggle reach their human at the top of the slide. Things don't go quite according to plan.

Oliver has a few "Long live the king" moments as he slides back down to the bottom, but you can't keep a good retriever down. And things like "gravity" and "traction" don't really translate into dog.
Alas, the video ends too quickly to see the dogs succeed, but it looks like Teddy is just discovering the steps to the top as it ends. Teamwork is a wonderful thing.
