Watch Goldendoodle play tag with surprise wild visitor in yard
A Goldendoodle in West Virginia found an unlikely playmate while in his backyard.
Kodak, a 2-year-old Goldendoodle, was filmed playing tag with a deer at his home in Princeton, about 100 miles south of Charleston, by his owner, Chase Bentley.
Watch: Deer surprises Kodak with a game of tag
Video footage shared by Bentley shows the dog running towards the deer, which first runs away from him. After exchanging glances, the deer starts chasing Kodak, and the two can be seen frolicking in the grass.
Doogle gets chased by wild deer in an unexpected game of tag
In Princeton, WV, a 2-year-old doodle named Kodak got a surprise when a wild deer joined him for a game of tag in his front yard.
“Kodak just wanted to play (but) the deer had other plans,” Bentley said, adding he was a little tense while watching the two because he was “scared the deer was going to hurt him.”
Though the wild animals are frequent at his house, this was the first time Kodak played with one, Bentley said.
According to Bentley, Kodak, who has been a part of his family since he was a tiny puppy, loves making new friends and playing with them. This instance was no different.
