The adorable clip was originally shared on TikTok last Friday by the owner, who goes by the username @Maui_thegoldenpup. Since then, it has amassed over 2.2 million views and continues to gain popularity. The video begins with Ruby fearlessly launching herself down the waterslide, resembling a “bread loaf” in her confident descent. However, a later scene shows her encountering a challenge. Ruby stops at the edge of the slide, unable to climb back up, and eventually falls into the water, with her golden retriever brothers failing to assist her.

Accompanying the humorous post is a caption that reads, “One year ago Ruby was a legend on the waterslide. This year she learned how to stop on the waterslide. Major Fail.” The caption is followed by, “Ruby’s new skill unlocked.”

Despite the amusing nature of the video, it highlights an important aspect of corgis—they are not strong swimmers. Their long bodies, barrel-shaped chests, and short legs make it challenging for them to swim proficiently. It is recommended that the breed is allowed shallow water play only so that they can splash around without fear of drowning.

The video quickly gained traction on various social media platforms, capturing the hearts of animal lovers on TikTok and beyond. To date, it has received over 273,000 likes on the platform.

This heartwarming video serves as a reminder of the incredible bond between animals and the joy they bring into our lives. Ruby’s adventure on the waterslide not only entertained viewers but also showcased the teamwork and love among her furry companions. It’s no wonder that this endearing rescue has touched the hearts of millions worldwide.
