Golden Retriever Has A Blast Sliding Down Grassy Hill In Adorable Viral Video

Leny the golden retriever knows a good time when he sees one. He also knows a good opportunity, and he's not about to miss out on one of those if he can help it.

That's why whenever he spies his favorite grassy hill, he makes sure to take the time to stop what he's doing and give that glorious, steep incline his full attention. But Leny doesn't like to just roll down like any other dog might — he sliiiides.

This beautiful pup has recently gone viral thanks to his penchant for sliding down hills.

No really, he can't get enough of it.

His Instagram page is full of videos of him taking a fun-filled joy-slide down the same hill, and then gleefully bounding back up to the top so he can do it all over again.

His passion for grassy slides has earned him nearly 15,000 devoted followers who are obsessed with him and his bizarrely wonderful hobby.

Just watch this video and tell me your mouth didn't break out into the widest smile possible. Even the sourest of sourpusses is no match against Leny's worry-free sliding.

I swear my heart has grown a full three sizes since I discovered this wonderful pup.

Leny has become somewhat of a sliding expert and has perfected his technique to make for optimum fun.

First he readies himself at the top of his favorite hill, tail sufficiently wagging as he eagerly anticipates the slide to come.

Then, he lowers himself onto his side and slides all the way down the slippery, dewy grass. Once he's reached the bottom, he hops right up and sprints back up the hill for round two.

Winter is here, but if you think Leny is about to let something as silly as snow stop his fun, you're sorely mistaken.

It may not be as slippery as grass, but Leny still makes it work. Hey, when you love sliding as much as this little fella, you find a way.

There's even a video on his Instagram page showing us the moment Leny was first introduced to his favorite hill as a puppy.

Of course, he was a bit too small and a bit too unsure to give the ol' slide a try. After all, everything seems way bigger and way more intimidating when you're just a little puppy.

But it wouldn't be long before Leny grew a bit, found his nerve, and realized just how much fun a single hill can offer him.

Of course, after a long day of sliding, Leny can get pretty tuckered out.

So he takes a little rest at the bottom of the hill and laps at the wet grass until he's ready for more.
