Penny the mini Goldendoodle has one mission in life: getting upstairs, no matter what obstacles stand in her way.

Since she’s not potty trained and has a talent for chaos, Penny’s mom tried blocking the stairs with pillows, convinced it would keep her grounded. But Penny had other plans as she squeezed her tiny body through the leftover gap, proving that no barricade can hold back a determined doodle.

The hilarious moment showcases both her cleverness and boundless determination.

Penny loves going upstairs, but she isn’t allowed because she wants to eat all the socks and people toys, she isn’t potty trained yet, and can get into all sorts of trouble up there. Generally, there are no people upstairs, she just wants to get up there. I blocked the stairs in a way that I thought would work, but it turned out she could squeeze through the small opening that was left.
