Some dogs know exactly who to turn to in a crisis. And for Chewy, the gentle Newfoundland who stars on Instagram, that person is his beloved grandma. A now-viral video shows the massive “floofy bear” trotting straight to her when his favorite toy rips, and the giant dog’s reaction when she fixes it is nothing short of heart-melting.
The dog goes to grandma when his toy needs stitching
Chewy is the star of the Instagram page @chewythenewfoundland, which has built an impressive 155K strong following across 950 posts. His bio introduces his world perfectly: “Chewy and Family, especially my great Grandma. Follow our YouTube Channel.” The page is filled with wholesome moments, but fans unanimously agree that Chewy’s bond with his grandma is something special.
“He brought his broken toy straight to Grandma.” Chewy pads into the room carrying a worn, much-loved plush toy shaped as a banana, its stuffing peeking out of a seam. He gently sets it on his grandma’s lap and looks up at her with pleading eyes. He knows exactly what he wants, and exactly who can make it happen.
His grandma smiles, pats his head, and gets to work. Chewy watches every stitch with full concentration. When she finishes sewing, she hands the toy back to him. Chewy erupts into pure joy, his tail wagging.
Viewers couldn’t get enough of the sweet interaction. One user commented, “Grandma to the rescue for her BFF floofy bear. Such a happy bear after grandma fixed his toy.” Another wrote, “The best friend in the world.”
One added, “So precious! Love these two! All I want for Christmas is more clips of Chewy the fluffy brown bear and his lovely, sweet grandma.” And another summed it up perfectly: “They have the best friendship. Grandma is the BEST!! She’s there for everyone !! Chewy knows where to go!!”
