We adore dogs exactly as they come, quirks included. Their little preferences, strange choices, and everyday routines make living with them endlessly entertaining. If one decides a chunk of stone is the best companion he could ever have, there is no reason to argue with that peculiar decision.
That is exactly what Obi, a Nashville Golden Retriever, chose to do when he proudly introduced a rock as if he had discovered a brand new friend.
A Dog Completely Committed To His Chosen Treasure
Tori and Skyler Beck share their home with Obi, whose full name is Obi-Wan Kenobi. From the moment he joined them, life turned into a steady mix of constant laughter and a whole lot of unpredictable moments.
Over time, this cheerful Golden has built an online following thanks to his tenderness and goofy personality. His parents happily jump into the fun, enjoying every new antic he comes up with.
One day, they watched him stroll inside carrying a large rock like it was his newest prize. Obi shows little interest in normal toys, ignoring balls in favor of stones that look much less cuddly.
This time, he did not just carry it around the yard. He attempted to tuck it into bed with him, acting as though it belonged right there among his belongings.
Tori recorded the entire moment for a TikTok video capturing Obi curled over the rock while trying to keep Skyler from discovering it. The clip spread quickly, collecting thousands of amused viewers.
Obi planted his body on top of the stone, and when Skyler leaned over to ask what he was hiding, Obi remained still. Tori stepped in, saying for him, “I don’t have nuffin’!”
Obi sat stiffly in his bed, shielding the rock like it was a fragile treasure. He pretended to look innocent, but eventually the truth came out.
The audience fell in love with the mischievous scene. One person wrote, “So we all speak for our dogs when our partners talk to them.” The other one said: “It’s his comfort rock!”
This was hardly his first stunt involving stones. He picks them for fetch and always heads straight for them rather than choosing store-bought toys that most pups would adore.
A Golden Retriever With A Charming Personality
Obi’s fascination with rocks is only one part of his dynamic personality. When he is not sneaking stones indoors, he keeps his family on their toes. Sometimes, he challenges mirrors as if there is another dog preparing to take over his territory, and he works hard to win the battle.
During festive seasons, when Tori chooses outfits and gets dressed up, Obi joins the fun as well. He gladly wears costumes, showing off his playful style without hesitation.
Still, what matters most to him is time with the people he loves. After long hours of play, he curls beside Tori and Skyler, settling in for affectionate cuddles that stretch into the evening. They shower him with attention, and he returns their affection through nothing more than his sincere presence, because simply being Obi is more than enough. He is, after all, a Golden Retriever who fits his name perfectly.
