First University of Tulsa Goldie Canine Ambassador Bobblehead Unveiled

This morning, the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum unveiled the first bobblehead of the University of Tulsa’s official canine ambassador. Goldie III, the third golden retriever to serve in the role, was introduced to the Golden Hurricane community on National Golden Retriever Day, February 3rd, 2026. The officially licensed, limited-edition bobblehead is being produced by the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum, an official licensee of the University of Tulsa.

• The bobbleheads, which are expected to ship in May, are now available at this link.
• Each bobblehead will be individually numbered to only 2,026.
• The bobbleheads are $30 each, plus an $8 flat-rate shipping charge per order.
• Sitting on a blue circular base bearing her name, the Goldie bobblehead is wearing a blue bandana around her neck adorned with the University of Tulsa logo.
• In 2013, the University of Tulsa debuted the Canine Ambassador program with the introduction of Goldie, a golden retriever puppy. According to the school’s website, “Goldie represents everything that students and alumni love about UTulsa: Loyalty, growth, friendship and the ability to learn in a supportive, caring community.” Goldie II replaced the original Goldie and served from October 2021 until graduating with the Class of 2025. Goldie III was introduced to the Golden Hurricane community on National Golden Retriever Day on February 3rd, 2026, to represent the Class of 2030. Goldie provides stress relief and attends campus events, football tailgates, student activities, and orientation.
• Goldie recently signed a three-year NIL (name, image, and likeness) deal with The Farmer’s Dog pet food brand. Goldie joined Dubs from the University of Washington, Jonathan from the University of Connecticut, Smokey from the University of Tennessee, and Uga from the University of Georgia as one of five college dog mascots to receive a partnership deal. The Farmer’s Dog is making the five mascots the stars of its latest college athletics initiative. The partnership will provide Goldie with real, human-grade meals and treats as the company helps care for the dogs that represent their universities and communities.
• “We’re excited to unveil the first bobblehead of Goldie, the popular live mascot at the University of Tulsa,” National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum co-founder and CEO Phil Sklar said. “Goldie has been putting smiles on countless faces since arriving on campus, and Tulsa is in good paws with Goldie representing the university. These bobbleheads are a must-have for UTulsa supporters everywhere!”
• Previously, the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum unveiled a bobblehead of Gus T., Tulsa’s official costumed mascot, and that bobblehead is in stock now.
• The National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum, which is located at 170 S. 1st St. in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, opened to the public on February 1st, 2019. The HOF and Museum also produces high-quality, customized bobbleheads for retail sale as well as organizations, individuals, and teams across the country.
