A heartwarming display of sibling antics between two dogs has taken the internet by storm. In a recent video shared by their owners, Copper, the Golden Retriever, is seen desperately trying to convince her Bernese Mountain Dog sister, Chevy, to join in a game. The playful footage showcases the classic sibling dynamic—one seeking fun, the other wanting peace.
Shared by the Instagram account @copperandchevy, the video depicts Chevy lounging on the couch, attempting to relax, while Copper nudges, barks, and even nibbles at her sister to grab her attention. Despite Chevy’s efforts to ignore her, Copper’s persistence never wavers, highlighting the amusing, sometimes frustrating, bond siblings share. The owners captioned the video, “POV: your Bernese Mountain Dog completely ignoring your Golden for the 1000th time today.”
While the clip leaves viewers wondering if Copper eventually wore down Chevy’s resistance, it serves as a perfect example of the sometimes playful, sometimes exasperating nature of sibling relationships—whether human or canine.
Understanding the Sibling Bond
While the video is filled with humor, it also underscores the compatibility between Golden Retrievers and Bernese Mountain Dogs as siblings. Both breeds are known for their friendly, easygoing nature, making them ideal companions with the right training and socialization.
Golden Retrievers are active, loyal, and love their families, just like their Bernese Mountain counterparts. While both breeds shed significantly, they are otherwise quite similar in temperament. The key difference lies in size, with Bernese Mountain Dogs growing much larger, weighing between 70-115 pounds, compared to the 55-75 pounds of Golden Retrievers.
In the case of Copper and Chevy, their sibling dynamic serves as a reminder of the energy, joy, and occasional mischief that comes with having a furry sibling to share life’s moments with.
