It’s a familiar scene in many households — a child pushes away a plate of broccoli, declaring it the enemy of all things tasty. But this time, the drama unfolds not at the dinner table but in the living room, and the reluctant diner is not a child but an adorable Bernese Mountain Dog puppy named Goose. In a recent Instagram video, the dog has a hilariously dramatic reaction to a piece of broccoli, making it very clear he’s not a fan.
Dog’s reaction to broccoli finds a place among netizens in viral video
The video shows Goose encountering broccoli for the first time. Right away, he displays his discontent. When his owner presents the green vegetable, Goose goes on high alert, assuming what can only be described as a defensive stance. His hind legs rise, and his eyes narrow at the offensive “tree of doom” as if preparing for an epic showdown.
As Goose’s owner persistently offers him the broccoli, the puppy expresses his clear disapproval with sharp barks. Ignoring these vocal warnings, the owner continues to tease him, much to the puppy’s growing frustration. In a moment of defiance, Goose swipes at the offending vegetable, batting it around before cautiously giving it a sniff. By the end of the video, his intense stare at the “tree of doom” captures his inner turmoil while the motionless broccoli sits before him.

This adorable skirmish between Goose and the broccoli struck a chord with many viewers, some of whom found Goose’s disdain for the vegetable entirely relatable. On Instagram, users shared their amusement and empathy, with one commenter noting how “terrifying” broccoli must seem from Goose’s perspective. Others shared their own experiences, pointing out that while Goose may not be a fan, some dogs enjoy munching on the green veggie.
Broccoli, in small amounts, is generally safe for dogs and can even provide health benefits, as it is rich in fiber and vitamin C. However, it contains isothiocyanates, which, if consumed in large quantities, may cause gastric irritation. Experts recommend keeping broccoli intake under 10% of a dog’s daily diet and serving it plain to avoid digestive issues.
