Some dogs are naturally good at making friends. They are usually gentle and patient with everyone they come across. A new video perfectly shows this trait. It features a dog named Bailey, a Goldendoodle, who helps a foster dog, Belle, come out of her shell. The clip captures every moment of their friendship. It goes from their first shy meeting to their first time playing together. As their friendship grows, pet lovers get first-row seats to a heartwarming journey of finding a best friend.
Owner documents foster dog and Goldendoodle’s friendship in viral TikTok video
Dog lovers have quickly fallen in love with this video. Bailey and Belle meet for the first time in the first scene. They are both nervous but intrigued. “Watch our foster dog and my Goldendoodle go from strangers to best friends,” reads the caption, which makes the picture clear.
What follows is a string of Belle’s firsts — small but meaningful moments. First, we see Belle getting her first scratches, and the look of bliss on her face is pure gold. Viewers also catch a glimpse of Bailey as he looks on lovingly. Next, they are in a bedroom. Bailey lies on top of the bed, while Belle hides under it. The caption says that this is her first time being outside of the playpen, and Bailey’s kindness gives her time to get used to it. Later, we see them exploring on their first walk with a leash. Bailey leads the way like a seasoned guide.
Cut to the next clip, and we see them at the dog park, where Bailey shows Belle how it’s done. He runs, and she chases, and their bond grows stronger. Soon they’re syncing everything — even potty breaks. When they get home, Belle puts her paw on Bailey’s head in the sweetest way that says, “we’re family now.” It’s clear that Belle is no longer shy when they finally curl up on the bed together.
A fun tug-of-war at the end of the video is the final sign that these two have really hit it off. The caption reads “Happy Birthday Belle, thank you for being Bailey’s best friend. Viewers couldn’t help but gush, leaving comments like, “So sweet. Was there ever any doubt?” And really, there wasn’t.
