A nine-week-old Cocker Spaniel puppy named Gosta is gaining attention online after videos show him falling asleep mid-play. The footage, shared on TikTok, depicts the puppy dozing unexpectedly while engaging with toys and playmates, prompting widespread reactions from viewers.
According to reports, Gosta’s condition is narcolepsy, and the story also includes that he collapsed during the journey to his new home at about nine weeks old. Since then, he has been featured in social media posts that highlight his sleep episodes and his everyday interactions.
Both outlets describe Gosta as a rapidly growing online presence, but they focus on slightly different narrative emphasis: one highlights his “melting hearts” appeal tied to the viral clips, while the other frames the story similarly, pairing the onset moment with the later rise in popularity. Overall, the accounts agree on the puppy’s age, diagnosis, and the central viral theme of sleep occurring during play.
