Every day, he eagerly waits by the school bus for his favorite boy to come home.
There’s nothing more heartwarming than this daily ritual—a young boy returning from school to find not only his mother waiting for him but also his devoted dog, excited for his arrival.
In a touching video, the dog can be seen standing in the front yard, watching intently as his human sibling steps off the school bus and walks toward him. At first, it seems like the pup is about to run to greet him, stretching his legs as if preparing to sprint. However, instead of dashing toward his brother, he takes a calm, measured approach.
Perhaps he just needed a little stretch after a long day of playing and chasing his tail. As his brother reaches him, he greets him warmly, and what happens next is simply adorable—the dog stands up on his hind legs and wraps his front paws around his brother in a heartfelt embrace.
It’s clear this isn’t a one-time event. The boy reacts as though this is their usual way of greeting each other, suggesting that this loving gesture has become a part of their daily routine. Whether it’s an instinctive act of affection or a behavior his human sibling has trained him to do, it’s undeniably heart-melting.
The boy hugs him back, and the dog plants a loving kiss on him. After a long day apart, these two couldn’t be happier to be reunited. One can only imagine how much time they spend together when school isn’t in session!
Bernedoodles: The Perfect Family Companion
Bernedoodles, a cross between a Bernese Mountain Dog and a Poodle, make excellent family pets. This hybrid breed blends the best traits of both parents—the playful and affectionate nature of the Bernese Mountain Dog and the intelligence of the Poodle.
“They have a natural love for fun and energetic play, especially with children. If introduced to young kids early on, Bernedoodles thrive in families, growing alongside them,” wrote Garrett for Trending Breeds.
Since they are a mixed breed, Bernedoodles don’t always look the same. Two Bernedoodles standing side by side might appear quite different, even though they share the same lineage.
Characteristics of Bernedoodles
One of their most distinctive features is their size. By the time they reach 12 to 14 months of age, Bernedoodles typically grow to a height of 23 to 29 inches and weigh anywhere between 50 to 90 pounds.
While they make wonderful companions, Bernedoodles aren’t the best guard dogs. But with their loving, loyal nature, they’ll always be there to welcome their family home—with hugs included!
