Dogs can be phenomenal protectors for young children. Not only that, but they also are great companions. A new time lapse video proves just that. A family captured the special relationship between a little girl and her dog from the moment the two met. Even as a tiny newborn, the little girl trusted the dog completely and would lounge with him.

As the girl grows up, she throws the ball for the dog and the dog gladly fetches it and brings it back. On rainy days, these two are the sweetest companions you’ll ever see.

Watch the video to see the charming and sweet time lapse of this little girl growing up with her beloved dog.

They seem inseperable!
