As living beings that can give birth, dogs also care about puppies. They have to guide them in their first steps in the world and teach them how to behave so that they can take care of themselves.
They often get help from their human owners, who help make the dog’s adaptation to life more bearable and easier. That’s what happens with Ellie, a golden retriever who has to act as Emma’s older sister.
The Instagram account @elliegoldenlife is dedicated to documenting Ellie’s life with her owner Kevin. They have more than two million followers and have been on American television shows such as Jimmy Fallon.
In one of the latest videos on their account, Kevin and Ellie teach various things to Emma, ??the new member of the family. Almost four million views in a document full of tenderness and love.
Kevin first performs the action with Ellie, since she is the oldest, for example giving her paw or tasting food. Emma then repeats it, much to the satisfaction of her human companion. But they also do things on their own, like taking walks on the beach.
The reactions in the comments are dedicated to admiring Emma’s work. “The best big sister in the world,” posts one user. “Emma is very smart.” “The bond between big and little sister.”
