Toddler and her dog dress up and recreate ‘Beauty and the Beast’ dance

Halloween is coming up, and people everywhere have been busy getting their costumes ready. But it’ll be hard to compete with this adorable duo, who’s perfect “couples costume” is lighting up the internet.

Emily is a three-year-old girl who has grown up with her best friend always by her side: her pet goldendoodle, Rudy.

“They are the best of friends,” Kaylee Slobotski, Emily’s mom, told The Dodo.

On October 26, the Nebraska family was at home, and Emily, like so many toddlers, asked to watch her favorite movie “for the 100th time”: the classic Disney movie Beauty and the Beast.

This time, Emily decided to really get into the spirit of the movie and asked to wear her yellow Belle dress. But of course you can’t have a beauty without a beast, and luckily Emily had a perfect partner: Rudy had his own “Beast” costume, the blue jacket seen in the movie.

And when it came to the iconic ballroom scene, the toddler & dog got up to reenact the dance:

The two sway as Angela Lansbury sings the theme song on TV. Emily leads while Rudy patiently follows along.

Kaylee watched the adorable scene and caught it on video. “It was the sweetest little moment,” she said. “I couldn’t handle it when she tried to put her head on his shoulder.”

She posted the video on Facebook, where it’s taken the internet by storm. It currently has over 11 million views and thousands of comments. People can’t get enough of the precious moment.

“She is lucky she has the cutest beast that puts up with her shenanigans!” Kaylee wrote.

The dog might not turn into a prince at the end, but we’re certain that this is true love, straight from a fairy tale.
