Dad Walks in on Daughter and Therapy Dog's Spa Day After 'A Long Week'

There's nothing better than putting your feet up and chilling out after a long, hard week. That certainly rings true for Magnus, a Labrador who has gone viral for doing exactly that on TikTok.

During a video clip, seven-year-old Magnus can be seen enjoying a makeshift spa day with his owner's daughter, Skyler, who is 15.

Brian Benson, 51, told Newsweek: "Magnus loves to be around us and is up for anything so it is super easy to put him in any position and have him relax."

The video, captioned: "When you need a spa day after a long week," has racked up 14 million views and over 992,000 likes.

The text layered over the video says: "I hadn't heard from my daughter in a while and went upstairs to find this."

The clip then cuts to footage of Magnus relaxing in a dressing gown while lying on his back with Skyler right next to him. Of course, the spa date wouldn't be complete without cucumbers on their eyes and relaxing music playing.

Benson told Newsweek: "Magnus is super chill and calm, however, he definitely loves to run around, be goofy, and do zoomies when he is outside."

"In this video, he actually fell asleep and started snoring with his mouth wide open; that is how much he trusts me."

This isn't the first time @magnusthetherapydog has gone viral, in fact, the popular pooch has built quite the fanbase online and his account boasts 2.9 million followers.

Benson, a visual effects supervisor, told Newsweek: "He is insanely smart, loyal, affectionate, fun, playful, calming, and definitely the best boy in the entire world."

Many Labrador owners will probably agree with Benson that their pet is the best breed. Indeed, labs were The American Kennel Club's most popular breed for three decades, until last year, when French bulldogs made history by ranking first. The Labrador, on the other hand, did not fall too far behind and is now in second place.

TikTok users can't get enough of Magnus and the video has been flooded with comments.

"That dog is living a better life than me," said one user.

Another joked: "Must've been a rough/ruff week."

Another said: "This makes me smile. The robe is so funny on the dog."

Other comments imply the video isn't relatable for some owners, who have commented to say what their dog would do in this instance.

One comment with 16,200 likes said: "My dog would be eating the cucumber. Probably the squishmallows too."

According to the AKC, while Labradors are extremely playful, they are also extremely adaptable. This explains Magnus' willingness to go with the flow.
