Some people are simply born for the spotlight. In North County San Diego, that famous face is actually a four-year-old with golden fur. Banks, the star of @perfectgoldenbanks, spends his days on a rotation of caffeine stops and fan meet-and-greets. A video on the handle shows the Golden Retriever holding court at a local cafe, surrounded by strangers who have abandoned their lattes to give him attention. This dog sits on his bench like a celebrity who is very used to being the main attraction.
Golden Retriever enjoys petting from strangers at coffee shop
The footage shows two girls fussing over him while he sits patiently. He soaks up every scratch and head rub with total ease. Moreover, he looks like he’s lived this exact scenario a thousand times before. This Golden Retriever is practically famous for having a high social battery. His mom mentions that they can’t go anywhere without him attracting strangers who want to meet the famous dog. As she puts it, he is the “squish king of north county san diego.”
His taste buds are also a bit unconventional compared to those of other pets. This is not the first time we’re seeing him outdoors. We saw him at a cafe trying his first donut not long ago. He surprisingly chose a sugar cookie over bacon that day. Whether he’s hunting for crumbs or waiting for pets in a new video, it’s evident he brings joy to everyone. And he has been this way since he was a baby.
We once watched him run across a massive field just to greet his mom. It is clear that wherever she goes, he follows with a wagging tail. They could be on a boat or at a bakery, but he makes sure to leave a trail of fans. He is just such a pro at making every interaction feel special, even with people he has just met.
With over 17,400 likes, the internet agrees that being “perfect” is just his baseline. Fans joke they’d love to join the queue for a kiss. Watching this video, you’ll agree that the joy a friendly pup can provide is truly unparalleled.
