It doesn’t get much more adorable than this.
In photos that have gone viral, Internet users this week met Theo the Dog and Beau the Baby.
The former was found by Jessica Shyba and her family at the SPCA and “instantly bonded” with her son, as Jessica wrote her blog, Momma’s Gone City.
Every time Jessica puts down 23-month old Beau, Theo “plops right on top of [him] and they sleep for a minimum of 2 hours together,” Jessica wrote to The Huffington Post in an email.
These daily naps have turned into “what I can only describe as the most organic and beautiful friendship I have ever witnessed,” Shyba adds, saying that she may turns the pictures into a book and use the proceeds to benefit the Santa Cruz SPCA.
As you might expect, the cute images have inspired a hashtag “#TheoandBeau,” as well an entire nation.
