The bond between children and their pets often forms the sweetest moments of life, encapsulating innocence, love, and the passage of time. This was perfectly captured in a recent viral video that has taken TikTok by storm, showing the beautiful tradition shared by a Bernese Mountain Dog and a baby girl.

Every morning for the past two years, Ivy, a Bernese Mountain Dog, and her human sister have shared a simple but meaningful ritual: sitting on the couch and watching the outside world through a window. This cherished routine — documented in the TikTok video — offers a glimpse into the serene moments the two share, observing the comings and goings of everyday life.
The clip captures Ivy and the toddler as they grow together. As the toddler learned to wave goodbye and hello, Ivy remained a constant companion, a gentle giant beside her. The story takes a poignant turn when a “for sale” sign appears outside their window, signaling an upcoming move for the family.
Despite the upheaval of moving to a new house, the duo’s tradition continues. In their new home, they find a new spot to carry on their window-watching ritual. But the video doesn’t just end there; it presents a touching surprise — a new addition to the family. The clip concludes with Ivy and the toddler — now a big sister — accompanied by a new baby sibling. With Ivy keeping watch, the little girl protectively holds her baby sister, perhaps highlighting a new chapter in their shared tradition.
TikTok users have been overwhelmingly positive, with many expressing how deeply moved they were by the video. Some viewers likened the heartwarming clip to a Disney movie, and others suggested turning it into a children’s book about moving homes. Moreover, one user wrote, “Surely the doggie is Nana from Peter Pan?”
The dog‘s owner also shared the video on Instagram and said that while leaving their old home was bittersweet, they look forward to the future and the simple moments that make life rich.
