UK - One dog was lost without its owner – quite literally.

In a TikTok video that has gone viral, a heart-melting scene ended in a very happy ending.

The clip begins with her four-legged friend scratching at the door of the pair's apartment, standing on her hind legs.

"My dog lost me and thought I'd gone home and left her," Emily wrote.

"She was crying and scratching at my door."

The pet owner tries to get her pup's attention by whistling, but it takes some time before her dog realizes Emily is right behind her.

Then, her dog's reaction is chock-full of cuteness.

When Dottie finally sees Emily again, she sprints towards her. The two are reunited in a heartwarming moment captured on camera.

Emily went on to explain that the two actually lost each other during a walk and the animal ran home alone, thinking that her owner had was there. The two reportedly also spent time away from each other during the pandemic, which has led to some of Dottie's separation anxiety.

Since the TikTok clip was posted, the video has been viewed over 429,000 times. Viewers' comments speak volumes.
