This viral video of a puppy growing up in a matter of seconds is just about the sweetest thing we’ve ever seen. The video features Putney, the golden retriever, and we got in touch with her owners to learn the story behind the video.
Sit back, prepare to say ‘Awwww,” and read on to find out how it all happened.
Puppyhood goes by so fast
How’d they do it? The family used an app called One Second Every Day, which captured 1 second of video, every single day, for the first 7 months of Putney’s life at home.
When Nick and Nateecha Powdthavee brought Putney home, the puppy seemed worried and aloof. Though Putney came from a good home, she seemed uncomfortable with humans. The couple was determined to bring out her happy golden retriever nature, and you can definitely see the results of their efforts, as Putney blossoms in their care.
Twinsies
Asked about his favorite part of the video, Nick says it’s about a different kind of transformation.
“It has taken so much patience, persistence, and determination for us to win her over, to try to bring out the Golden Retriever in her and to teach her to enjoy life. I think you can just about see her slowly becoming much happier and more confident in the video as she gets older.”
Such a cutie
Putney is a sensitive soul, who loves other dogs but is still a little shy with strangers. Her favorite activities include napping on the couch with her family nearby, and playing outside, preferably with one of her many dog friends. You can follow Putney’s adventures on her Instagram page.
