Now more than ever, it's a good time to enjoy the simple things in life: Walks outside, conversations with friends, and splashing in puddles if you're Stevie, a yellow lab in Indiana.

According to a user submission on ViralHog, Stevie saw his "girlfriend" outside and got very excited, which led to him jubilantly splashing around in puddles. This could have been to get her attention with a display of dominance over nature, or because splashing in puddles rules.

Stevie also has a neurological disorder that affects motor control, but video description, penned by Stevie's owner, noted that it doesn't cause him any pain. He just loves puddles!
