Meet Hubert and Albert: The Golden Boys Living Their Best (and Muddiest) Life

If you think your kids have attitude, you haven’t met Hubert and Albert—two golden rebels from Denmark who are absolutely paws-itive they know better than their mum about everything. With 169,000 followers watching their every mud-splattered move, @hubertthegoldenretriever has become the go-to account for anyone who needs a daily dose of golden retriever chaos, charm, and comedic timing that’s nothing short of fur-nominal.

These two describe themselves as living “the golden life,” though their definition might include more dirt, more stubborn sit-ins, and more “we’re-not-going-home-yet” tantrums than you’d expect. Managed by their devoted mum Fie Hedam, the account captures the glorious reality of life with Goldens: equal parts adorable and absolutely hilarious.

Hubert, the elder statesman at nine years old, has gone viral for his spectacular refusal to end walks. One video showing his firm roadside sit-down protest racked up over 455,000 views, with viewers completely relating to his unwavering determination. At one point, he even lifts himself halfway off the ground before deciding “nope” and sitting right back down —a move that Golden owners everywhere recognised immediately. As one commenter perfectly put it: “By 9 they can do whatever they want.”

Albert, born in July 2023, is learning all the best tricks from his big brother, ensuring the golden shenanigans will continue for years to come. Together, they’re proof that Golden Retrievers aren’t just the lovable, obedient family dogs of legend—they’re also stubborn, sassy, and absolutely pawsitively certain they’re in charge.
