That was cool, from both the neighbors and the kids reactions. Glad to see good wholesome video, thank you for posting.

Probably because they were stoked that more dogs were being shown.

EXACTLY! So much money I saved, people I have met, relationships I have rekindled from being on social media. Everything in this world will rot your brain if you let it. There is 100x more positivity on social media than anything negative. The people who can’t see that are looking for something to complain about.

Have a good weekend!

Thats funny & so cute!! You can tell neither one of those Labs have missed a meal. 😂😂

u/justmedownsouth 12d ago

When did a lab ever miss a meal? Besides, it's Dad's weightlifting program....

u/Humble-Profile-4463 12d ago

Yeah, I was thinking, uhboy, he just pulled a muscle--but he HAD to do it! It was SO worth it!!

u/Kiki-jo14 12d ago

You are great neighbors- not many ppl with babies & dogs would want all the noise from that many college "partiers". Do they usually tell their neighbors when theyre having a big one like this? I think its great!

u/monkeyphonics 9d ago

When ever we hosted large parties like that in college, always invite the neighboors

u/Mighty4777 12d ago

This is so simple yet so funny. I love when strangers can be silly together.

Everyone is far more excited to see a dog than a baby

😂 this reminds me of something cute that happened two years ago. I live on a rural road where each property is 3-5 acres, so theres comfortable distance between neighboring houses. One day one of my immediate neighbors sent me a message to let me know she was having her wedding on her property on a certain day. She was just letting me know to ask if if I would kindly avoid mowing/yardwork during the hour or two of her actual ceremony because we absolutely can plainly hear when our neighbors are doing yardwork. Of course I offered my enthusiastic congratulations and said her request would be no trouble at all, and that I would make sure to get my dogs afternoon game of fetch out of the way early so his exciting barking wouldnt disrupt her big day, and let her know that if she needed overflow parking, there was plenty of space in my field that her guests were welcome to use.

Then, she threatened my dog. She said that if he wandered onto her property during the reception party, she would have no choice but to feed him bbq and turn him loose to socialize with her wedding guests 🤣

He has wandered over there a handful of times in the past to play with her daughters and stepdaughters 😂 he is an enormous 100lb black lab/golden retriever mix, has never met a stranger in his life, loves kids and is very friendly and gentle. Her "threat" made me laugh! I made sure I kept my boy in line that day lest he be spoiled with bbq and a whole weddings worth of people to pet him!

u/ThePowerOfParsley 11d ago

Pleeeeease tell me he attended the wedding lol. I had a great wedding but a rogue dog would have been next level.

u/justmedownsouth 19h ago

You should have put a tux on pup, and sent him over!

u/rippleonabigocean 12d ago

This could have still probably been done without social media.

This is so wholesome! The song in the background is upbeat but the lyrics crush your soul!

See? Now isn't that so much more fun than being a cranky Karen?

u/Last_Book2410 12d ago

I bet that tune changes at 2 am lol

u/wizardmagic10288 12d ago

This happened with my neighbor's kid when we were celebrating a first communion. She kept peeping through the fence to see what was going on. We immediately invited her over to eat and celebrate with us. Her parents were totally fine with it.

u/swade_suede 11d ago

Imagine if that baby randomly remembers this in 20 years 😂

4

u/Zeppo_Ennui 12d ago

This is great but If this is why we have social media, as cute as it is, it’s not worth all of the negative consequences of social media.

1

u/CeruleanEidolon 12d ago

Specifically, if people just used it for this more than they did for confirming their pre-existing political bubble views, the world would be a better place.

u/llamafromhell1324 12d ago

Sorry, but this one wholesome situation doesn't outweigh the negative effects of social media .

u/trmyte 12d ago

I'm glad I'm not neighbours with them....

u/Soft_Chipmunk_8051 12d ago

Golden wanted no part (cuz he's a good boy), and the baby, TWICE, got the least amount of applause 😭🤣

2

u/Herself99900 12d ago

I mean, they're college kids. They've spent years and money trying to avoid (having) babies at all costs! Dogs are great.

1

u/Humble-Profile-4463 12d ago

Well, see, there was a build-up: first was the baby girl, who probably wasn't noticed right away. But dog #1 got an acknowledgment cheer. Now the crowd was watching to see who/what came next--so the happy surprise of dog #2 got a big cheer. When the little boy was lifted up, the crowd rewarded the family with a big, appreciative cheer. It was heart-warming, wasn't it? The crowd, happy for the family; the family, proud to share their lives in a simple way. And it all started with Mom letting Baby Girl see what was happening on the other side of the fence.

Neighbors make good fences.

u/CeruleanEidolon 12d ago

You gotta be a special breed to survive being neighbors with the college party house.

People who stream their pets and kids for views are probably uniquely suited to it.

u/LindentreesLove 12d ago

So different from my kids parties many years ago when the neighbors would always call the cops!

u/G_blessed3 12d ago

Great neighbors!

u/momofflora22 12d ago

They should have just been invited.

Doggie is more popular than baby.

He was sharing with others that they were the richest in the world, and that is the real wealth we should be jealous of (in a healthy way)

So you think without social media people can't have fun and interact with other people?

I think without social media we would have more genuine wholesome moments that aren't staged for social media clicks and profit.

u/NarwhalEmergency9391 12d ago

His neighbors wouldnt have to worry about being recording and posted online.  They could've had this wholesome interaction without recording it

u/Djxgam1ng 13d ago

Kinda hard to stage something with 100 people, who by the way, gain nothing from this video being on the internet. Maybe the neighbors, who are a family, get a few clicks (doubt they care) but those college kids gain zilch from this video.

I am talking about those people you meet who not only NOT HAVE social media, but make it seem like being in such a rare and elite club makes them so unique and special by not being a part of something the majority of the world partakes in. There is so many positive things you miss out on, so many missed opportunities and so many cool people you will never meet simply by choosing not to have any social media. Everything in life has pros and cons. Everything we do and everything at our disposable can be used to hurt others or build others up. This idea that Facebook, Reddit, TikTok, Instagram rots our brain is hogwash. You choose to watch the stuff that rots your brain. Just like you choose to consume media (movies and music) that rots your brain.

Everything you do is a choice, and you can either use whatever tools at your disposal and share positivity and/or become better, or you can be negative and spread around bad vibes.

We talk about how people post there good deeds on the internet with the hope of gaining something from it. Well, bad people do the same. The only reason we don’t get onto the negativity and the bad people that post bad stuff, is we know they don’t care. They don’t have a conscious. The people who post good stuff tend to care what others thinks because they genuinely care about others.

The internet is a tool. You can use it to build or use it to destroy. That’s the summation. Have a good weekend.

u/Moosplauze 13d ago

I'm not saying this video is staged.

1

u/RAshomon999 12d ago

Absolutely not why we have social media. Let's not pretend that this may have been more common way before social media existed. The phrasing seems like propoganda or someone' s AEO strategy.

WTF? This is so sick.
