Dog has the most heartwarming reaction to meeting baby brother for the first time

Dogs have showcased a different kind of bond to their human families. The love permeating this bond is more pure and powerful than we see in some human relationships. Our canine companions also seem to have an extra sense when a new member of the family comes in. They are often quite curious and extremely protective of newborns, taking extra steps to be their guardians. Maxine the Fluffy Corgi—who goes by @madmax_fluffyroad—had the most heartwarming reaction on seeing her parents welcome their baby brother, Ellis, into the family.

The short but touching clip has amassed 5.9 million views and 237,511 likes on the platform. The caption reads, "Maxine would like to introduce you to her baby brother, Ellis." It starts with a text overlay that reads, "Our dog had the most beautiful reaction to meeting her baby brother." We get to see Maxine eagerly waiting by the door, waiting for Dad to come home with her baby brother, Ellis. As soon as she hears footsteps, her ears perk up and she gets on her feet to greet the baby.

The dad walks in and Maxine lovingly looks at the baby walking towards the couch so she can get to know him properly. She jumps on the couch, teeming with excitement, as the dad sits down next to her with Ellis in his arms. Maxine is very gentle with the newborn, resorting to sniffing her. The dad gives her a few kisses as she adorably rests her head on top of him in a wonderful gesture of protectiveness. The father is also overwhelmed by seeing their dog's response, with tears of joy running down his face.

Maxine, dad and Ellis share a few moments in embrace before she proudly looks at the camera, seeming quite excited at having met her baby brother. People found the video quite emotional and touching, sharing their thoughts in the comments section. @tuckerbudzyn said, "Tears just pouring down my face. This is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. So many congratulations, you guys." @dash_and_furrious commented, "My heart is going to explode with so much cuteness. Congratulations guys. Such a beautiful moment."

It seems that Maxine was well aware of her brother's arrival as she stuck by her mom's side the entire time that she was pregnant. In another video, we see how Maxine would cuddle up close to her mother from the moment she woke up till she went to bed. Throughout the clip, the dog adorably provides the mother with comfort and hugs, never leaving her side. Viewers of this video were also amazed at Maxine's wholesome gesture and expressed their thoughts in the comments section.

I'm convinced. I went from being the spare human to him being my Velcro puppy." @lofisch pointed out, "She's such a good girl and mama protector! She can't wait to meet her new little baby!"
