Friendship comes in all shapes, sizes, and fur types. While humans might bond over coffee or shared playlists, dogs seem to do it through wagging tails and soft snuggles. That kind of unfiltered affection is exactly what the internet fell for this week, thanks to a video of a Samoyed and an Australian Shepherd, who redefined the meaning of “love at first sight.”
Samoyed and Australian Shepherd can’t stop hugging each other in adorable video
Yuki, a fluffy white Samoyed, has found her perfect companion in her Australian Shepherd sister, Maple. The touching video, set to Charli XCX’s song “Everything Is Romantic,” documents the beginning of their friendship in a way that feels almost cinematic.
It opens with Yuki’s family surprising her with a special gift — a box containing a tiny puppy. As soon as the box opens, her tail starts wagging, and her eyes light up with curiosity and excitement.
When Maple emerges, the moment feels like love at first sight. The video cleverly syncs the lyrics “fall in love” with Yuki’s joyful reaction, perfectly matching the emotion of the scene. What follows is a montage showing how their bond has grown over time, from that very first meeting to their current life together.
The loop of the song continues with “fall in love again and again,” while clips of the pair walking side by side, napping together, and exchanging sweet hugs play on screen. Each scene radiates the warmth and comfort that comes from having a loyal friend.
The caption, “And this was just the beginning,” sums up their story perfectly. Viewers seem to agree, as the video has quickly taken social media by storm, reaching nearly two million views and over 271K likes within just five days of being posted.
“The best reel to show Yuki and Maple’s bond and their love for each other,” one comment read. Another fan playfully imagined Yuki’s reaction, writing, “Mommy you brought me my best friend!” Someone else described it simply as “the rest is history.” A viewer also praised the creator for winning the trend with this audio, calling the video “very cute.”
