Dog Deemed “Best Big Sister” After Feeling Baby Kick

A heartwarming video of the adorable moment a dog felt her new baby sibling kick has gone viral, melting hearts everywhere.

On July 8th, @amy.holmes_ posted a precious video showing the moment her Australian kelpie felt her baby kick for the first time. After realizing what was happening, the pup lifted her paw and placed it on Amy’s bump, awaiting more movement.

The dog’s ears perked up in both excitement and confusion as she looked at her human. But, once the baby moved a little more the dog has not left her human’s side since. In the video, you can see the dog placing her head on her human’s bump repeatedly, hoping to feel her new sibling again.
