Many families install security cameras in their homes so they feel safe and secure when they’re not home, but most of the time they don’t capture anything unusual.
Homeowner Hollie Mallet was checking her security footage one evening as she usually did when she spotted something unusual. In the late afternoon, she watched as a little boy snuck into her garage. At first, she couldn’t understand what he was possibly doing, but then she watched him steal a quick hug from her dog and then run out.
“One day, we were going through the footage and I told my husband, ‘You’ve got to see this,’ and he came in and gave him a quick hug, and we wanted to find out who he was,” Hollie said.
Hollie posted the video to her Facebook page to try and identify the sweet little boy, and soon enough the boy’s mom, Ginger Breaux, found the video and realized it was her son Josh.
“Josh talks about your dog all the time! Every time we pass he looks to see if she was sitting where he could see her. Just didn’t know he was doing things like this,” Ginger wrote in a comment to the video, which has been viewed about 2 million times. “Last night when I first saw it, I was torn as a momma being happy and upset because he knows he shouldn’t be on someone’s property, but I wake up this morning more happy that he just absolutely adores dogs so much.”
Instead of being angry at the boy’s trespassing, Hollie is actually thrilled that her black Labrador named Dutchess has a new friend. “My dog is super friendly and loves to play,” she said. “With my husband and I at work all day, it’s great for him to come and find her to play. Every day since, he’s been coming back and he’s been playing with her and it’s so fun to check the video at the end of the day to watch them.”
“He’s the sweetest little boy,” Hollie said. “It’s a win-win. They both get a friend.”
