The 2 dogs have the cutest best-friend ritual (Video)

When Lupa’s family moved into that condominium, she didn’t know she’d found her wonderful friend Shadow. Shadow and Lupa live down the hall from each other and have a ritual they do every night, and we get to see it in this adorable video. It starts with Shadow, “the most perfect mutt,” patiently waiting by her front door. You can hear Shadow’s owner saying in a singsong voice, “Shadow, do you want to go see Lupa?” Once the door opens, Shadow flies down the hallway, running to “knock” on her best friend’s apartment door.

With great anticipation, Shadow waits—sniffing, scratching, and bumping the door with her nose—until her bestie Lupa comes bounding out. They barely even gave each other a proper hello before stampeding down the long hallway into Shadow’s apartment. When the two dogs see each other, every time, they go crazy with happiness and they start running down the corridor of the apartment building, moving from one apartment to another. It’s obvious that this ain’t the girls first rodeo. Shadow and Lupa run so fast they barrel right over Shadow’s owner’s bare feet.

 The two dogs have become inseparable friends

Once inside the apartment, Shadow and Lupa have a good round of zoomies while Shadow’s owner calls them “best friends.” In an attempt to throw their neighbors a bone, the video is captioned: “Our neighbors must love us… if any of you on our floor see this… we owe you a drink!” The two spend plenty of quality time together, proving to followers that they truly are the best canine companions. Judging by their close relationship, it’s clear that these two dogs don’t need a lesson in socialization. Watch the video, we’re so happy to see these best friends in action—here’s to many more doggie dashes!
