The bond between dogs and kids is always special. This duo makes up for the most heartwarming moments as they are inseparable. A recent post on social media is capturing this beautiful relationship. The video focuses on a Golden Retriever becoming a cuddle buddy for a baby. A user named @wild.is.home took to their Instagram to share this heartwarming clip of their dog, Bo, with their daughter, Lou. The profile focuses on the duo’s outdoor adventures with their family.
Golden Retriever needs months to warm up to baby but ends up a cuddle buddy
In the above-mentioned video, the Golden Retriever and the baby girl cuddle with each other. The video-on text reads, “This is why we got a dog before we had kids.” We see Lou lying down on the fur baby’s back, and he stays still, enjoying the affection from his human sibling. The little one continues clinging to Bo, who also tries to offer some warm kisses to her.
Lou goes back to lying down to feel the warmth of her fluffy buddy again. Babies usually cuddle with canines, especially Goldens, as they enjoy touching their fur. Goldens are most friendly with kids, especially the males, who are quite expressive with emotions.
It looks like Lou and Bo have formed a close and healthy bond over time. The parents opened up on the relationship between the pooch and the child in the caption, writing, “We got a golden retriever in case one day we had kids, because we knew they were so good for children.”
They further added, “It actually took Bo months to warm up to Lou! Months of keeping his distance, not really sure what to make of this tiny loud human that had taken over his space. And then one day, something just clicked.” The parents concluded, “Now she cuddles up on him like it’s the most natural thing in the world. And for her it always was. He just needed a little more time to get there.”
