We can learn so much from our pets. They teach us kindness and compassion and show us unconditional love. While we know they have many talents, you wouldn’t necessarily expect them to help babies reach their milestones, would you?

Well, Ashe, a sweet Golden Retriever, is showing a baby named Griffin how to crawl and it’s the cutest thing you’ll see all day! Take a look at this precious pair.

Ashe is so kind, moving slowly, and then giving an encouraging lick that seems to say, “You got it, kid, let’s keep going!”

And how heartwarming is it when that adorable tot looks at Ashe, like, “Show me again! I’m ready!”

Viewers can’t get enough of these two!

“He’s the first teacher in the baby’s life,” one person writes.

Another gushes, “Oh my goodness! Ashes, you are the goodest Golden Retriever in the world. This could literally be in a Disney movie!”

It’s true, this has all the makings of a great buddy movie and we’re sure Griffin and Ashe (which does have a great ring to it as a movie title!) will be friends for many years to come.

Of course, most dog parents think their breed is superior to all others, but Golden Retriever fans are particularly loyal.

One writes, “That is absolutely precious footage! The Golden Retriever is the smartest, kindest, gentlest, and most helpful dog of all breeds!”

Another adds, “There is no doubt a Golden Retriever is the best dog for a family.”

Goldens are known for being playful, socialable, and great with both children and other dogs, making them a very popular pick with families and anyone looking for a trusty companion. Not to say other breeds aren’t equally as awesome.

We wonder what other tricks Ashe plans to teach Griffin! Whatever comes next, we’re sure this toddler is in good hands, er, paws.
