Dogs are human’s best friends, and every dog owner will attest to that. While most dogs show their affection for humans by wagging their tail and licking, Louboutin (or Luby for short) is an adorable golden retriever who shows its love with a hug.
When Luby walks with its owner Cesar Fernandez-Chavez, it’s never a typical walk. The incredibly friendly dog always stops to greet strangers and when they stop to pet it, Luby loves to hug them, wrapping its front paws around their knees.
According to Fernandez-Chavez, Luby likes to cuddle with people, including complete strangers. For this reason, Luby’s daily walks around New York are very spectacular.
« This is not an ordinary walk, » Fernandez-Chavez told the Dodo. « It’s a hug walk. »
Before Luby wanted to hug people, it wanted to hold hands. This special tradition began a long time ago, on Valentine’s Day in 2014, right after Fernandez-Chavez broke off a long-standing relationship.
“It sat down and grabbed my hands with two paws. I remember joking with my friends: « At least I have someone to hold hands with on Valentine’s Day.”
