Dog Protects Little Girl Being Yelled at By Mom

A loyal dog has become a social media darling in China for his defiant protection of his little human.

Good boi doing good: Harry, a 5-year-old golden retriever, was captured on film shielding a crying girl being scolded by her mother in Xuzhou.

The video also showed the retriever snarling to keep 2-year-old You You in a “safe” distance from the mom, Mrs. Sun.
Sun, who filmed the video on Friday, says her daughter grew up with Harry around, resulting in a deep bond between them.
She added that she found the incident “funny and infuriating” at the same time as the dog shielded her daughter with his paws.
Sun explained that You You had torn up the packaging of a recently purchased facial cream and started playing with its contents, MailOnline reports.

“I was honestly really upset. I’d just bought the cream and half of it was already gone,” Sun was quoted as saying. “My baby started crying because I was shouting at her quite aggressively.”
Harry’s immediate reaction, which was to protect the child from her mom’s impending wrath, delighted Sun.
The dog even tried to comfort the young girl by resting his head on her shoulder.
Sun revealed that Harry has always been protective of You You, noting that he will often shield the little girl when they speak to her in a harsh manner.

Viral star: Harry’s video has become widely shared on Chinese social media, generating millions of “likes” and comments.

According to Sun, the popularity of the video surprised her, as she thought she was just documenting a funny moment in their life.
“I was just documenting the daily moments of my dog and daughter because Harry is turning six years old soon and getting old,” Sun said.
“I just wanted to capture these memories so I have something to look back on in the future when he’s not here anymore,” she added.
