Golden Retriever's Messy Beach Hair Is Giving Total Summer Vibes
"Beach hair, don't care" seems to be Zebby's motto all summer long. This sweet Golden Retriever is lucky enough to live close to the beach, and his humans take him there all the time. After one recent trip, he was giving off serious surfer boy vibes on TikTok. Honestly, it's like he was born to catch a wave.
As his dad drives them home, Zebby is wedged between the front seats, happily riding home after a day in the sand and surf. The fur on his ears is perfectly crimped from the salty ocean air, making him look like an ‘80s pop star in the absolute best way possible.

TikTok viewers also couldn't get over the Golden Retriever's adorable shell necklace. One person commented, "The seashell collar, are you kidding me ," while another wrote, "The seashell necklace and crimped fur is perfect! Where is the collar from?"
Zebby's mom replied, "It's from Ohana Pups! "

And just in case anyone wasn't convinced the sweet pup had the best beach day ever, I'd say the fact that he was dozing off while sitting upright in the car was a pretty clear giveaway.
Five Adventures Your Dog Would Love
Watching Zebby live his best life made me think about some fun adventures I could take my own pup on. Here's the list I came up with:
- Go for a hike. This one is pretty self-explanatory and just involves finding a local dog-friendly trail to explore together.
- Plan a beach trip. Take a page out of Zebby's book, especially if you live close enough for an easy day trip.
- Take your pup swimming. Look for a local pet daycare or training facility with a pool and sign up for a drop-in swim session.
- Go camping. Camping gives dogs the chance to use all their senses while exploring a safe outdoor environment.
- Try a new dog-friendly activity like Frisbee. It's a great way to get both of you outside, moving around, and having fun together.
Whatever adventure you decide to try, your pup will probably be happiest spending time with you-and honestly, that's the best part.
