A super-precious, magic moment between a cute baby that can barely crawl and a giant boxer dog that is laying nearby. It's pretty neat when at this point in the kid's life, the dog is more intelligent. I think the dog in this video is perfectly aware of that, and sort of looks at the baby as a cute young 'un.

It's amazing to me how dogs are willing to adapt to new roles in their relationships with humans as those humans grow up. As the father of a good sized brood of kiddos, I've been able to watch our dog Dexter as our kids age from infant to toddler to mature kid. He's been nurturing when they're young, cautious when they get to be a bit abusive when they're about 2-3, and perfectly happy to cuddle for hours on end when they're older.

It's amazing how patient and accepting dog's can be of every stage of our lives.
