Thousands of TikTok users have been left teary-eyed after watching this adorable video of a 94-year-old man’s daily routine with his neighbour’s dogs.

Kimberly Hanberry is the proud owner of two loveable canine companions, Charlie and Doug. But Kimberly isn’t the only person to enjoy being around Charlie and Doug; they also bring immense joy every day to her neighbour.

Dog loving neighbour

Mr Bill is Kimberly’s 94-year-old neighbour, and their two gardens are divided by a small fence. One day, when Kimberly was inside her house while her pups were out in the garden, she heard Mr Bill try to get the attention of her dogs. He approached the fence and waited patiently for Doug and Charlie to come over.

Kimberly decided to pick up her phone and start filming the sweet scene that was unfolding outside.

Heartwarming video

In the video, you can see that Mr Bill has something in his hands, and just a few seconds later, the two dogs go over to the fence to greet Mr Bill. The pups know Mr Bill very well, as the kind-hearted neighbour makes visiting the dogs part of his daily routine. However, because it had been raining, he’d not been to see them in a few days.

Mr Bill leans over the fence to give the dogs some crackers he’d kept. After giving the dogs their treats, along with some strokes, he returns to his house, giving the pups a little wave as he goes. 

The heartwarming clip has been watched by over 250k people, with hundreds of people commenting on how much of a sweet man Mr Bill is, and they wished they had a neighbour like him. Even Mr Bill’s granddaughter commented on the clip, thanks Kimberly, for sharing the special moment.
