USA - Scenes like this touch the heart! When Samantha Kate Dugdale's family welcomed another baby into the world, the woman was excited to see how her dog would react to the new arrival. The golden retriever's reaction is really cute.

A TikTok clip of the mother-of-three shows her sitting on the couch, holding her newborn tightly in her arms.

At the same time, the four-legged friend is eyeing the new earthling, getting its fur stroked by its owner and wagging its tail carefully but joyfully.

The dog owner and the animal keep exchanging intense glances. Gazing at each other can lead to an increase in oxytocin levels, which is said to strengthen the bond between humans and animals, as Newsweek reports, citing a scientific study from 2015.

Finally, another of Samantha's TikTop clips shows the golden retriever and baby making direct contact.

The crying child lies on a cuddly blanket. As if the dog could empathize with the baby's emotions, the furry friend gently nuzzles the back of the child's head with its snout.

This video in particular has been well received by users, with more than 35,000 likes and more than 1,500 comments.

Some are touched by their own baby dog experiences, while others are simply diligently distributing heart emojis.

Samantha Kate Dugdale feels reminded of a caring sibling by the velvet paw's behavior.

"The best furry brother in the world", she captions her video, which has already been clicked more than 200,000 times.
