Arie Safari the Goldendoodle

Who is
Arie Safari?

Arie (are-ee โ€” rhymes with Sorry!) is a Goldendoodle living his very best life in Orange County, California. His mom was an English Golden Retriever. His dad was a Mini Poodle. He inherited the drama from both sides.

He has never followed a single rule in his life and has absolutely zero regrets about it. He rings the doorbell to demand outdoor time, has strong opinions about birds, and always knows exactly when you're on your most important Zoom call.

A day in the
life of Arie

Spoiler: it involves a lot of chaos, a little sunshine, and at least one incident.

7AM

Morning chaos begins

Wakes up. Immediately rings the doorbell from inside. Somehow this works every time.

8AM

Bird surveillance shift

Parks himself at the window. Monitors the perimeter. The birds have no idea how watched they are.

10AM

Beach or walk patrol

SoCal weather means outdoor adventures most days. He greets every human like a long lost friend.

12PM

Strategic nap placement

Chooses the most inconvenient possible location. Refuses to move. Actually adorable.

3PM

Zoom call sabotage

Detects when a meeting is happening. Enters immediately. Contributes nothing. Receives all the attention.

7PM

The witching hour

Zoomies activate. Unhinged chaos for 20 minutes. Then immediately asleep. No transition.

Fan favorites

The videos that broke the internet. Or at least really inconvenienced it.

Swim Class Reunion

His most heartwarming video. The internet wept. We wept. He was just happy to be there.

Perfect Angel at the Vet

Military-level obedience. At the vet only. This behavior does not exist anywhere else. 3.9M views agree.

Lost at the Beach

The velcro dog lost sight of me for 3 seconds. His reaction was proportional to zero situations ever.

Arie's Pick

Zesty Paws Calming Bites

Arie gets one of these before fireworks, vet visits, and any situation involving the vacuum cleaner. The change is actually noticeable โ€” calmer, less panting, still himself. We've been through four bags.
