Certain dog breeds are considered “aggressive.” That includes the Chow, Pitbull, and Doberman Pinscher. But when raised by responsible owners, they actually make great pets. In fact, these very dogs often form special bonds with children. One mom proved that point when she took a video of the family dog responding to her little girl who wanted to play.
The video went viral
Most people love to watch videos of animals. Add in a baby and it’s even better. After this mom uploaded the video of the family’s Doberman and her infant daughter, viewers went crazy. To date, it’s been seen more than eight million times.
A baby and a dog
At first, nothing too exciting happens. You see an adorable baby dressed in a yellow romper. She’s sitting on the floor in the living room surrounded by toys. Off to the side is the dog.
Hey doggie
After letting out a squeal, the baby begins to crawl toward the dog. That’s when it notices her. For a few seconds, the two of them just stare. This little girl is adorable as she smiles from ear to ear.
That was fast
As she crawls closer and lets out a series of giggles, this massive Doberman rushes toward her. The next thing you know, the dog’s standing over the baby. If you didn’t know better, you might hold your breath, thinking something bad is about to happen.
Just checking her out
After a quick sniff, the dog runs off camera. In the meantime, the baby sits there and continues to laugh. She didn’t want her furry friend to leave.
The dog’s back
As the pup approaches the girl again, you hear it make a playful noise. This baby can’t stop laughing. She gets so tickled at the situation that she loses her balance and topples over. In the background, you can hear the mom laugh, too.
Quite the conversation
Once the baby rights herself, she and the dog seem to have some kind of conversation. The pup makes a few more odd noises while the girl talks and talks. Of course, no one has any idea what they’re saying but it doesn’t matter. They’re communicating.
Let’s play
It’s obvious this baby wants the dog to play with her. The pup goes back over to her, hunches down in a submissive stance, and then again, makes the cutest sounds. Finally, this Doberman figured out what the baby wanted.
A sweet moment
This back and forth play goes on for a little bit. But then, the dog comes right up to the baby’s face. Even though it’s big, the pup gives this little girl a soft, gentle kiss. What a precious moment.
Time to get back to business
With the sentiments out of the way, the two go right back to playing. As the baby crawls forward, the dog moves backward. This cat and mouse game shows that already, they’ve created a special friendship.
The coolest part…not only will this baby girl have a great friend growing up but also an amazing protector. If you want to watch the interaction between the two, we invite you to click on the video below. It shows their unique bond while dispelling the rumors about breeds like the Doberman.
