An apartment lobby attendant befriend a local dog who would pass the building on his walks every days. She started giving him a treat and they enjoyed their daily encounters. She would be just as excited to see her doggo buddy as much as he was excited to see her! They truly became friends. Recently, she got him a little Christmas gift and surprised him with it on one of his walk. She gave it to him and said, "Thank you for being my friend." (Cue the water works!) The toy has become his favorite. Of course, the pup wanted to return the sentiment. 

 

So him and his hooman mother got to work on making the best gift for their apartment attendant friend! On their next walk they brought her a little gift bag that has some candy, a sentimental card, and a frame photo of her pup friend and his new favorite toy (that she gave him). The gift exchange was so incredibly wholesome. Happiness and holiday cheer was spread between these two friends and now the over 100k viewers that have watched the journey of this friendship. The attendant even said she was going to re-wrap it and put it back under her tree so she could open it again on Christmas day. The cuteness continues!
