Create a 10-second photorealistic 16:9 landscape video capturing a humorous pet apology moment.

0–3 seconds: Eye-level indoor living room shot. On a patterned carpet, scattered torn cardboard box scraps surround a handsome Golden Retriever sitting upright with large, guilty, expressive brown eyes.
3–7 seconds: An owner's hand enters the frame from the left, palm open in a calm, inquiring gesture asking for a handshake. The dog hesitates, tilts his head, and glances down at the cardboard shreds.
7–10 seconds: With immense solemnity and slow deliberation, the dog lifts his large golden paw and firmly places it onto the human palm, holding it there like an official peace contract while giving a soft, endearing tail wag.

Lighting: Warm indoor ambient living room lighting, soft window light from the side, cozy home interior.
Camera: Static cinematic medium shot at dog level, 35mm lens, f/2.0 aperture with gentle background blur on the sofa.
Audio: Soft sigh, quiet cardboard rustle, gentle paw pad contact sound. Comedic, lighthearted silence.
