A child and their dog

Perhaps what’s even more adorable than hearing a baby laugh is when they’re laughing at a dog. In the mentioned video, that’s what happened. Still young enough to only be crawling, this little boy had the cutest interaction with his big pup.

The two best friends that anyone could have! 💙🐾

Face to face

At the start of the video, you see the boy on his belly, face to face with his dog, which is in the same position. For just a moment, they don’t do much but look at one another. But then you see the pup as he gets ready to have some fun.

Come on, let’s play

Now, the dog lifts his backend in the air and begins wagging his tail. Immediately, the boy lets out the cutest giggle ever. The dog then circles around to one side while the baby tries his best to follow his quick movements.

Full of energy

You can tell this pooch has a lot of energy and all he wants to do is play with his favorite person. As the pup bounces from one place to another, the baby’s giggles turn to laughter. For a second, the dog stops, puts his nose up to the baby, and just looks at him as if trying to figure out the noise he’s making.

Back to playtime

What’s so cool is that although this dog is relatively large, especially compared to the small baby, he’s so gentle. As he continues bouncing around, the pup’s super careful not to get too close. At this point, the little boy’s laughter grows bigger and louder.

Mom’s laughing too

Filming the encounter, you can hear the mom let out a few of her own giggles. But the baby doesn’t look at her. He’s way too focused on the black furry thing in front of him.

Building a bond

The interaction between the dog and baby goes on for almost a minute and a half. During that entire time, the little boy stays on his knees. You can tell he’s engrossed in this pup and his sweet antics.

Friends for life

A lot of people feel that every child should have a dog. We would have to agree with that. Especially when they start young and get to grow up together, most of the time, the two become lifetime friends.

Don’t stop

There are a couple of times in the video when the dog takes a brief break from playing. Those are the only instances when the baby doesn’t laugh. But once the dog begins to play again, the laughter starts right back up. This is what you call cuteness overload.
