Baby (1) is suspiciously quiet: When mom checks on him, she melts away
Melbourne (Australia) - Every mother will have come to this realization at some point: If the nursery is suddenly quiet, it can only mean three things: The baby is playing intently, has fallen asleep unscheduled or is doing something really stupid! Australian Chey (31) was also aware of this and carefully checked on her son Louis when he became suspiciously quiet.
On her TikTok profile "life.with.chey", the mother of a one-year-old boy shared a sugar-sweet video showing the moment she "caught" her son.
In the clip, Louis can be seen sitting in a light-flooded hallway. At his side: the family's dachshund.
The toddler touches the four-legged friend very carefully and cuddles up to him again and again. The dog patiently keeps still and even allows Louis to put his head on his back. You can tell immediately that there is a lot of love between the two of them.
"When your baby is too quiet, it's either really, really bad or really, really good," Chey wrote in her caption. "This time it was really, really good."
Video shows magical moment between dachshund and baby
Friendship between dog and child grows
Although dachshunds are known to prefer to be with adults, as they often don't have enough patience for children, this one seems to be an exception.
Chey hopes that the bond between her son and the dog will grow into a "lifelong friendship".
In her previous videos, the Australian documented the tentative advances that took place in the last year of Louis' life. Even if there was no immediate spark between dachshund and baby, something wonderful now seems to be developing.
Especially when looking at this cute moment in the hallway, all signs seem to point to a great bond! "👶🐶 These guys are going to be the best little friends," mom Chey wrote optimistically.
