An adorable Goldendoodle named Sampson is going viral after an Instagram video showed the pup happily playing in an at-home ball pit. Accompanied by his adorable, happy growls, the video was a huge hit on the Instagram account @sampson_the_dood. 

In the video, Sampson can be seen happily playing in the ball pit, which is filled with red and gold balls. The text on the video reads, “No toy is safe in the ball pit”. The Goldendoodle growls with joy as he knocks balls out of the pit. His human explained to Newsweek that although the ball pit was originally intended to be temporary, it became a permanent fixture after Sampson’s humans realized how happy it made the pup. 

The video of the Goldendoodle in the ball pit also brought a lot of happiness to Instagram viewers. One person wrote,  “He’s adorable!!! I think he likes hearing how many balls hit the floor.” The video has been liked over 282,000 times on the social media platform.
