Many internet users have also flooded the comments section with their thoughts about the funny clip.
One TikTok user, Oscar and Taylor, wrote: "It would be like getting attacked by Winnie the Pooh."
Another person, Imnotyourdad69, added: "The way his head just slowly pops up."
Misspetunia asked: "Why is he staring at you through the mirror though... that's sketchy," alongside a string of laughing-face emojis.
Lexi <3 gushed: "The way he looks in the mirror it's so adorable."
Sammi Alexander wondered: "Do all goldens do that where they look at you through the mirror? Because mine exclusively does."
Believeinmagix4 typed: "Lol he scared me. I was thinking he was going to come running."
Harry shared: "I wouldn't be worried. He lives in the mirror. How's he gonna get out."
Sloth_kittie13 commented: "I didn't even notice until you zoomed I was looking at the dog bed."
However, another dog recently went viral for a far less intimidating reason—by repeatedly jumping into a bush.
The Bernese Mountain Dog puppy, whose name is Weller, can be seen enjoying himself in the purest of ways in the TikTok video montage as he leaps into the leafy bush.
The joyous footage was shared to the app on June 17 by user The Berner Bunch, along with the caption: "Weller is OBSESSED with this bush #bernesemountaindog #wee."
