A video on Instagram showing a Labrador dog, Elvis, and a baby boy, Ted, sharing an undeniable sibling love is winning hearts on the internet.

In the caption of the throwback video, the human parent of the dog wrote, “#throwbackthursday and we still do this.”
In the Instagram video, the dog owner showed what happens when a baby boy gets a dog as his big brother. The clip began by giving a look at the child and the Labrador right by his side, taking care of him. Meanwhile, the text over the video read, “When your brother is a dog.”
The clip then showed how the dog and the baby have always been together. The Labrador taught the baby everything he could, such as playing with a ball. Moreover, the boy even “learned to give back” to his furry big brother. The baby could be seen feeding the dog, helping him to dry his paws, and more. The affectionate duo cuddles, plays, reads stories, shares toys, has training sessions, and does other activities together.
Naturally, people on the internet have been loving the video showing the dog and his baby brother’s special bond. In the comment section, one person expressed, “They are so cute together oh my God it is so adorable to watch.” Another person praised, “Best big brother ever and for ever.” On the other hand, a commenter made an apt observation: “Children learn so many life lessons from growing up with a dog—- sharing, patience and loyalty and love, just to name a few.”
