Emily, 3, and her dog, Rudy, have been best friends since birth. The way they recreate this ballroom dance scene makes us tear up every time.

Rudy is the most patient dog we’ve ever seen because he lets Emily play with him in a way that normal dogs wouldn’t. For example, here she dresses him up as the Beast from her favorite Disney movie, Beauty and the Beast.

They are wonderful together. Rudy is so patient and he gives Emily about 40 seconds to dance before he’s done. This is definitely one of the best home videos this family could have asked for.
