MEET SPECIAL GOLDEN GUEST: San Diego Bruce
San Diego Bruce is the online name of a golden retriever who went viral on social media. His owner, Laura, created an Instagram account for Bruce to document his puppyhood.
“He’s just the friendliest dog you’ll ever meet,” says Laura. She got Bruce when he was 8 weeks old and immediately started taking lots of pictures. She created his Instagram page as a convenient way to store his puppy progress, but then random dog lovers started to take notice and suddenly Bruce was going viral.

More golden fun at Goldie Palooza 2025!
Earning AKC titles for your dog is considered fun because it represents a tangible achievement that demonstrates your dog's abilities, the hard work you've put into training together, and signifies a strong bond between you and your canine companion, allowing you to celebrate your shared accomplishment and potentially participate in competitive dog sports with a recognized standard; essentially, it's a way to showcase your dog's unique skills and the dedication you've invested in training them.
