When puppies are in the early stages of life, they can resemble everything from a stuffed animal to a cotton ball. Breeds that are extra fluffy like Bernese Mountain Dogs, Pomeranians, and English Sheepdogs basically look like walking clouds when they’re in their early days. A floofy puppy’s fur coat sometimes gives them a look outside of the canine realm that’s totally irresistible.

Ralph the Golden Retriever puppy is so adorably poofy that he could be mistaken for a baby bear.

In the TikTok from @ralphthegentleman, the precious puppy sat in his dog bed in the car, basking in his undeniable cuteness. Though Ralph is a full-bred Golden Retriever, his fluffy golden white fur covering his body and face gave him the appearance of a “real life Polar Bear”, according to the caption.

Ralph’s tiny eyes, surrounded by tufts of fur, as well as those giant poofy paws, emphasized that bear cub likeness. Followers fell in love with the canine cutie’s inescapable charm and commented on his sweet demeanor.

“You are such a little gentleman,” one raved.

“So fluffy and perfect,” another remarked.

“So cute,” someone praised.

How Old Is Ralph?

A previous post revealed that the Golden Retriever puppy is just 9 weeks old. Ralph recently went on his “first outing” to help him socialize.

“I’m literally the youngest sibling of eight,” the onscreen text shared of Ralph. “Guys, I am extremely social.”

The poofy puppy arrived at the pet store and was placed in a shopping cart, but he saw the mode of transportation as a bit more fancy.

“When we arrived at Petco, they put me in what I can only describe as a horse and carriage,” the story continued. “Very royal. Very Bridgerton. Apparently, I’m not equipped to walk on the floors yet. Which is fine — I prefer to be admired.”

Ralph browsed by the fish, but got bored very quickly. The birds didn’t seem to hold his interest either. When the gorgeous Golden was shown the dog spa, he was offended that he didn’t have an appointment but planned on going back for a “full foil and layers”.

Even though Ralph left the store without any purchases, he rated the experience “five stars” and vowed to book an appointment at the spa.
