You know that heart-squeezing kind of love that only dogs can pull off? Yeah, this one’s got that in spades. In a video posted by @pearl.the.golden.girl, big sis Pearl is lying on her side when her puppy sister Poppi toddles over and curls up right into her belly, like she was meant to fit there all along. The whole scene feels like a warm hug — calm, safe, and full of love and understanding. Golden Retriever Pearl seems to have a mountain of patience for her little sister, and Poppi’s every move screams that she trusts her older sister with her life.
Golden Retriever puppy cuddling big sister will melt anyone’s heart
The video has won several hearts online. The in-video text sets the tone: “Getting our dog a puppy so she never had to be lonely.” From there, it’s just pure comfort and sweetness. Little Poppi comes, sits, and lies down right in the crook of Pearl’s belly. She finds the coziest spot between Pearl’s front and hind legs before resting her head on her sister’s back.
Pearl gets up at this, but then lies straight back down. She ensures that Poppi has enough space to stretch. In the next shot, Poppi rests her head against Pearl’s front leg. The puppy gets up for just a second and then puts her head down again, becoming as comfortable as possible. She sighs like she’s finally found home.
The video ends with them curled up together, fast asleep and perfectly nestled against each other, like puzzle pieces that fit. The caption reads, “Can you even? This moment melted me. They feel so safe with each other and every time they cuddle. I can’t help but be so thankful for their bond already.”
Viewers clearly felt the same way. One comment called them “the best corner of the internet,” while another wrote, “If people were more like dogs, what a wonderful place this would be.” The post has over 106K likes, and honestly, it’s easy to see why — Pearl and Poppi make love look effortless.
