Heartwarming reunion (Video)

The bond between humans and animals can be extremely strong, but sometimes a dog surprises us with emotions so similar to our own that it’s no wonder they’ve been dubbed “man’s best friend.” One family recorded the moment when a man was reunited with his beloved German shepherd, Freya, after months of being apart. The dog had been staying with a Pet Sitter while he went away for work, and the pair had not seen each other for several months. Time apart did nothing to lessen their bond, however, as you can see (and hear!) by Freya’s ecstatic reaction.

Finally, the day came when Freya’s owner was able to come home. Their family knew that after months apart, the reunion between man and man’s best friend was going to be good. They staged a plan to catch Freya’s reaction on video. The man hid behind the door while Freya greeted the lady first. It only took her a second to realize she wasn’t alone. As soon as Freya hears her owner’s voice, she launches herself out the door and into Dad’s waiting arms.

Unconditional love

The most remarkable aspect of her greeting is the whimpering sound she makes. She’s so happy to see her human that she’s actually crying! As Freya wriggles and licks his face, it’s clear that she completely adores him and is beside herself with glee that he has returned home to her. She couldn’t seem to control her excitement. Her joyful cries show just how much she loves and missed her owner. Watch the video, this is a true testimony to the level of unconditional love shared by dogs and their owners.
