Watch A Sea Dog Give A Land Dog The Sweetest Hug Ever

It's that time of week when we begin to need a little pick-me-up — a feel-good video to pull you through to the weekend or lighten the load of the workweek. I think we have just the one for you, reader.

We've seen some pretty adorable animal affection videos here on LittleThings. We've watched lion cubs hug their caretakers goodbye before his departure. We've watched a young singer-songwriter get a hug from his pup during a sweet serenade. We've even seen two adorable rescue pit bulls hug each other.

But the hug below is special for one incredible reason: it happens between land and sea dogs (and may be a serious contender for this week's cutest video).

I have to admit, I was a little nervous when a man's dog parked itself next to this beached seal for a nap. When the seal ran up to his pup, it wouldn't be unreasonable to assume that there may be a problem — but that would be incorrect. Instead, the sea dog flips over to the dog and lays his head on his puppy pal's back for a sun-soaked nap. He even gives him a couple pats on the dog's head with his flipper (cue the "aww" chorus).
