Dog Finds Koala Toy at Yard Sale and Falls in Love

Every pet parent knows that when you are out for a walk with your dog keep your eyes peeled because it just takes seconds for a dog to find something on the ground he or she wants to put in their mouth. Usually it’s discarded food or other icky things. But for Hugo the Cocker Spaniel something caught his eye when he passed a yard sale that was simply adorable.

In Denmark, people sell things by putting them out on the street so while Hugo was out for a walk with his mom he spotted something for sale that he wanted.

“Some local kids were selling toys and as we were walking past Hugo fell in love with this koala bear toy,” his mom explains. Hugo snatched it from the blanket and wouldn’t let go. So Hugo’s mom did the next logical thing. She bought it for him. Mom not only caught Hugo on video “making his purchase” but also his sweet reaction when he realized he gets to keep the koala! Take a look:

It didn’t take long for Hugo’s yard sale find to go viral with the cute video getting over 10 million views.

Viewers love Hugo’s adorable reaction to his new best toy. But they did wonder, would mom be able to touch Koala? And the answer is revealed in her follow-up video where she shows that “Koala fetch is now his favorite thing.”

Many people are equally fascinated with Denmark’s unique garage sale set up. So @hugotheshark shared a “koala update” part 2 where she explains the whole “selling things on the street.” As for people worried about Hugo destroying Koala, @hugotheshark reveals he doesn’t destroy toys he just carries them around. Or does he?
