The holidays are a magical time for kids and adults alike. The beauty of getting together with family is made even more special by the amount of decorations everyone puts up throughout the last two months of the year. But being childless doesn’t mean having to miss out on certain traditions you know a small kid would love.
A user on Reddit shared how, along with their wife, they take their dog out to look at the decorated houses in their neighborhood. The user, who goes by pacmaneatsfruit, shared a pic of the adorable dog to the r/aww community .
The Dog Joined In On Some Holiday Magic, Too.
The Picture Is As Close To Perfect As It Gets.
Posted on December 20th, just days before Christmas, the pic shows a dog sitting in the back seat of the couple’s parked car with the window rolled down. The pup’s eyes practically glow as he watches the lights from a house, which can partially be seen in a reflection on the car’s door. Though we can never be 100% what the dog was thinking at that moment, it’s safe to say he was at least having a pretty good time out there.
