Big Chocolate Labrador Is All Wobbles and People Are Obsessed
Some dogs walk into a room with dignity and elegance. Others arrive looking like they're being powered entirely by excitement, tail velocity, and approximately three loosely connected noodles.
A giant Chocolate Labrador named Drake, better known online as "Big Perm," firmly falls into category two.

The TikTok video was shared by @shookdashocker, and it shows the famously wobbly Labrador greeting his dad with what can only be described as maximum dog energy.
"How you doing today ,Big Perm?" his dad asks in the video. "You doing good, big buddy?"
And honestly, the answer appears to be yes. Extremely yes.

The nickname "Big Perm" actually comes from the movie Friday. His original nickname was Big Worm, but in the movie, Big Worm eventually got a perm, and somehow the name evolved from there. Which honestly feels exactly like the kind of nickname progression that only makes sense when attached to a giant, lovable Labrador.
The internet immediately became obsessed with the sweet dog's chaotic, happy energy.
People Especially Couldn't Stop Talking About His Unbelievably Wiggly Body Language:
• "He has, arguably, the most pettable head I've ever seen."
• "No thoughts, just great vibes."
• "That tail wag is lethal."
• "He's just a weeblin' and a wobblin'."
• "Wagging his whole body."
Others said the Labrador reminded them of a very specific childhood character.
"Every time I see this sweet boy, I always see ‘big bear,'" one commenter wrote, comparing him to Bear from Bear in the Big Blue House.
Honestly, that comparison is painfully accurate. Big Perm has the exact same giant, cozy energy as a children's TV character who gives life advice before a commercial break.
One commenter may have summarized the entire situation best, though.
"Why is this dog the most doggy dog ever?"
And honestly? Excellent question.
Some Labradors just radiate pure DOG in all caps. No mystery. No emotional complexity. Just vibes, tail movement, and overwhelming friendliness.
Meanwhile, my Pomeranian, Kingston, wags too, but in a much more aggressive "small manager furious at customer service" kind of way.
Why Labradors Are Such Popular Pups

Labrador Retrievers have remained one of the most popular dog breeds for decades because they are typically friendly, affectionate, social, and eager to please. They're known for bonding closely with families and often have extremely expressive body language, including the famous full-body Labrador wag.
Labs also tend to maintain puppy-like enthusiasm well into adulthood, which is exactly why videos like this spread so quickly online. People can't resist a giant, happy dog whose entire personality seems to be "best day ever."
