Molson the dog's family decided to get their canine a sister after watching the golden retriever carry a stuffed animal around for years
A golden retriever got the gift of a lifetime. Koala Stuffed Animal
Molson has carried his favorite toy, a stuffed dog named Kelsie, with him ever since he and his siblings moved into different homes over two years ago, according to information the canine's family provided to T&T Creative Media.
The golden retriever's family, the Deverys, noticed Molson formed an immediate attachment to the plush companion, which the owners gave the pup so he would not miss his brothers and sisters. After receiving the stuffed animal, Molson brought the gift everywhere.
The dog's family, who resides in Maui, Hawaii, reassembled the well-loved plush several times over the years to keep Kelsie by Molson's side.
Now that Molson is all grown up — and is sometimes home alone while his family members are at work and school — Harry Devery and his 16-year-old daughter Jasmine decided it was time to retire Kelsie and give their pet a real canine companion.
After two-and-a-half years of carrying Kelsie around, the golden retriever met a real dog friend — a puppy named Posie that looks similar to Molson's favorite plush.
In a video of the sweet meeting between Molson and Posie, shared by Jasmine on TikTok, Molson gently drops Kelsie the stuffed animal when he lays eyes on his new sister, who sits calmly on the family’s porch in a laundry basket, peering out from under a blanket.
"What's in here? What's that?" Molson's family asks from behind the camera in the sweet video. "Is that your sister?"
Molson then inspects the puppy, wagging his tail excitedly as he sniffs his new companion.

The comment section of the TikTok video, which garnered over 2 million views, is full of users unable to handle the new siblings' cuteness.
"I am literally crying and throwing up," one user commented, to which Jasmine replied, "Me too."
Another wrote, "[THEY'RE] SO ADORABLE."
