Golden Retriever Mistakes Mannequins for Treat-Giving Employees
When Ranger the Golden Retriever recently visited a lululemon store with his parents, he found himself adorably confused. Accustomed to friendly employees offering him treats, Ranger mistook the store’s mannequins for the real thing—and couldn’t quite figure out why they weren’t responding.
Ranger moves from one mannequin to the next, sniffing the “hand” of one and sitting politely in front of the others, staring up as if patiently waiting for a treat. When none appear, he glances back at his mom, who watches with a mix of curiosity and amusement, before moving on to investigate the next “employee.”
The sweet moment was captured on camera by his parents, who captioned the video: “When the @lululemon employees always give you treats, but you’re having a hard time figuring out who is real or not.”

Viewers were instantly charmed by Ranger’s mix-up. One person commented, “Aww I feel bad for him. He thought he found some new friends.” Thankfully, Ranger’s family later reassured everyone that he did find the real humans shortly after—and, of course, the treats he loves.
