Golden retriever sweetly “apologizes” to his brother after stealing his treat

Let’s face it, none of us are very keen on confessing to our faults. Even so, the fact remains that nobody is perfect and we all screw up every now and again. Believe it or not, the same goes for our dog friends.

The good thing is that a sweet apology from a pup can go a lot further than ones from people.

For example, this golden retriever has melted millions of hearts with the sweetly sincere “apology” he gave to his canine brother for being naughty.

Kiko and Watson aren’t just brothers, they’re best friends, too.

The dogs live with their owner Jennifer Medrano in Spokane, Washington. If they look familiar it’s because they’re actually social media stars with 970K followers on Instagram! Medrano, who’s a photographer, takes the sweetest photos of Watson and Kiko together, which show their special bond.

However one day, Watson was left facing a temptation too beautiful to resist.

Most dogs want to be good as gold and keep their loved ones happy. However, that doesn’t mean they don’t “accidentally” chew the couch sometimes, dig in the garden, or sneak a cookie off the counter. Sometimes they even seem guilty and sorry afterward. Ugh, it was a mistake, Mom!

As for Watson, he made an “oopsie” when he got a little overexcited about treats.

Instead of the brothers enjoying their chewies (as their owner calls them) side by side, Watson decided to eat both of them. While we don’t know exactly what his excuse is, maybe they were just really delicious and irresistible.

Like a good mom, Medrano wasn’t about to let Watson go without giving a proper apology. So, she flipped on the camera and addressed the issue.

The dogs are sitting in the kitchen with Watson in the hot seat.

But before telling him to apologize to his older brother for being a treat thief, Medrano asks:

“Hey Watson, do you understand when I’m talking to you?”

Watson grunts a couple of times in response, which perhaps means, “Sure do, Mom!” Okay, now it’s time to get down to business…

These dogs must really love their chewies.

Medrano goes over the facts of what happened with Watson. She says to him in a calm voice,

“So I gave you a chewy, I gave Kiko a chewy. You ate Kiko’s chewy.”

Hilariously, both dogs lick their lips during the video. Can you really blame them with all this “chewy talk?”

It was plenty clear that an apology was owed.

Even though you can’t really blame Watson for wanting a second treat – stealing from your best-bud isn’t very kind no matter your species. Mom then asks,

“So what do we say when we steal someone else’s chewy?”

Medrano doesn’t have to spell it out for Watson, he knows exactly what to do.

Watson shuffled over to Kiko and gave him the sweetest hug.

It’s the sweetest thing ever seeing Watson wrap his arms around Kiko and rest his head on top of him. Seriously, how could you not be in a puddle looking at these two precious faces?

Watson and Kiko are both very, very good boys.

Understandably, Watson’s loving apology gets him out of trouble and Mom tells them what good boys they are. Who knows, maybe it earned them an extra chewy? After all, it was pretty darn cute.

Apparently, Watson is no stranger to giving Kiko a hug whenever he thinks he needs one.

The pooches’ Instagram page has lots of photos of Watson embracing his sibling.
