A tiny newborn puppy has found a very easy way to make a little girl laugh, and he seems more than happy to keep doing it. She is holding the Pomeranian pup close to her face when he starts licking the tip of her nose, then settles on it with his tiny mouth and keeps going. The video shared by @utah.poms captures her giggling harder with every attempt, while the puppy seems busy figuring out this very interesting new human. His eyes have barely opened, so he is still learning about the world mostly through smell and touch.
Tiny newborn puppy licks little girl repeatedly and leaves her in stitches
The little girl holds the puppy sweetly in both hands, keeping him close as he starts exploring her face. One tiny lick on the tip of her nose, and the giggles begin. That only encourages the little love bug. The puppy moves from licking to suckling on the top of her nose, perhaps mistaking it for his mom’s teat.
Given how young he is, that curiosity makes sense. His eyes are only just opening, so scent and touch are doing much of the work as he gets used to everything around him. For the little girl, though, none of that matters nearly as much as how funny it feels. She keeps laughing while the puppy continues his investigation.
The video has gone seriously viral, picking up more than 22 million views and 2.4 million likes. Viewers took to the comments section to talk about that unmistakable newborn smell and the feeling of holding a puppy that young. One person wondered how to explain this feeling to humans who hadn’t experienced it, while another said the little girl was probably already in love with her tiny companion.
Someone else summed it up with, “I can smell the milky breath,” and that comment really says a lot about why this clip has connected with so many people. It’s just a short, wholesome clip of a tiny newborn puppy discovering a nose and a little girl discovering how ticklish and funny it feels to have it licked.
