Sometimes in life you just need your parents to show you the way. It’s their job afterall to teach us life lessons and lend a helping hand where needed. Even if it’s just to provide a little encouragement, that goes a long way for a young one who’s so unsure of the world around them.

In the video below, a mama Golden Retriever goes down the slide at the park. Her little one is right behind her, but she hesitates at the top. The mother dog goes back up to show her pup the way and yanks on her leash pulling her down the slide! Mama wasn’t messing around — she knew she could do it!
