In early August, Lori Dugas, a resident of Port Charlotte, United States, filmed her baby Caleb and her dog Kahlua in a moment of kindness that the dog had with the child. The publication, shared on Tik Tok, yielded hundreds of views and comments about the family dog’s performance.
Having a disability and not being able to walk normally like other dogs, Kahlua walks sitting on the ground. And perhaps Caleb wanted to imitate his four-legged friend, as in the video he is seen watching the way the dog moves.
The dog, noticing the baby’s interest, tries to teach him, and gradually Caleb moves on the ground, in a kind of crawl, with his leg tucked under his body.
In her Tik Tok – which even bears the name of Kahlua – @kahluasadventure, the video was shared with the caption: “Our paralyzed dog taught the baby to crawl”. Since then the video has reached more than 11 million views. In a previous video, Lori explains that Kahlua had broken her back when she fell from a three-story balcony, and the injury left her paralyzed. Lori temporarily adopted the dog, and after the family adjusted to Kahlua’s new routine, she adopted the pet for good.
See the video shared by Lori:
The song that packs the video, could not be another, “You’ve Got a Friend In Me” – in translation, “You have a friend in me”. Song known for being the theme of children’s animation toys, ‘Toy Story’, 1995.
The lyrics sing: “There’s nothing I wouldn’t do for you. We stand together, we can see that. Because you have a friend in me.” Demonstrating well the relationship between little Caleb and his dog Kahlua.

10 UNLIKELY SUPER FRIENDSHIPS FROM THE ANIMAL WORLD
A wonderful organization called DAR Animal Rescue heard about a helpless puppy that was all alone under a bench. People had passed her by and posted her photos to Facebook asking for help.
Oddly, however, no one actually stopped and picked her up and helped her themselves. We have no idea why.
One of the rescuers from DAR headed over to help the poor puppy. She couldn’t understand why the baby had just been left to suffer.
When she arrived and saw the defenseless little girl crying, she was floored. This puppy was in grave condition. She wouldn’t have survived long.
The rescuer wrapped her in a blanket and put her into the car. It was time to get her to the vet. Once on the examination table, the vet pulled off ticks that had devoured her blood. There were tons of them. Her eyes were also infected. Poor baby!
The vet also tried to get her to stand up on her own but she was too weak. It was a struggle. Besides being malnourished, she was also anemic from parasitic blood loss.
Finally, the little pup is given food and water. She is thrilled! When was the last time she ate? No one knows for sure.
