Boy Sneaks Into Neighbor’s Garage to Hug Dog
Published on June 09, 2016
You wouldn’t think a surveillance video showing a 9-year-old boy sneaking into his neighbor’s garage would end up in a sweet story, but this one did. When Louisiana homeowner Hollie Mallet scrolled through her footage, she spotted an adorable scene showing the boy riding his bike into her driveway, hopping off and running into her garage — to hug her black Labrador Retriever. She posted the video on Facebook in hopes of identifying her dog’s new friend. It wasn’t long before the video reached the boy’s mom, Ginger Breaux. It turns out that the family’s dog passed away last year, and Josh misses having a pup to love. “Josh talks about your dog all the time!” Breaux wrote to Mallet on Facebook. “Every time we pass he looks to see if she was sitting where he could see her… Last night when I first saw [the video], I was torn as a momma being happy and upset because he knows he shouldn’t be on someone’s property, but I wake up this morning more happy that he just absolutely adores dogs so much.” Luckily, Mallet said Josh is welcome to come play with Dutchess any time, and he’s taken her up on her offer. — Read it at ABC News
