This corgi tried very earnestly to share a bone with his reflection, proving he’s the ultimate “good boy”
We’ve all heard that dogs are “man’s best friend,” but a dog can also be their own best friend. Allow us to explain. A dog has taken over our Twitter feeds for doing the most adorable thing ever: trying to share a bone with his reflection. His name is Auggie, and he’s pretty much the most adorable corgi ever. And this selfless act just proves he’s the ultimate “good boy.” We’ll say!
It’s no secret that no matter what corgis are doing, they capture our hearts. For instance, there was the corgi who wore a propeller hat, as well as the corgi who wore a mermaid tail. (Say what?!) Both were super adorbs. But Auggie rivals them both.
Without further ado, here’s the corgi who’s taking over Twitter in all his attempted-bone-sharing glory.
I don't think any of you understand just how pure corgis are.
He keeps trying to share that bone with his reflection in our closet mirrors. pic.twitter.com/8d8DyKcL0y

Just check out those likes and retweets! As of this writing, the post has been retweeted over 65,000 times and hearted/liked by more than 164,000 people, but we have no doubt those numbers will keep climbing.
Of course, we ~cannot~ get enough of that video.
And don’t you love Auggie smiling at himself at the end? The Twitterverse also ate this vid up (sans bone).
The way he smiles at his friend! This is the most pure thing I've ever seen

Oh. My. Goodness. YES. When I first got Kevin, he would get upset when his reflection wouldn't take the many toys he offered. 😂

But the tweet that made us laugh the most actually came from the good boy himself. But Auggie the corgi isn’t just a good boy. He’s also a literary agent in training as the pet of Associate Literary Agent Eric Smith. And he’d just like to let you know that while he is extremely busy, he’s not letting the fame go to his head… at least not too much.
Yes, I'm still working as an agent. And I will get to your queries very soon, writers.
I'm just busy being EXTREMELY FAMOUS right now.

Truly, Auggie — you might just be the best boy.
A good book starts by asking questions, like "who's a good dog?"
The end of the book should answer that question, perhaps with "you are."

Okay, now we have to go watch Auggie and Eric’s video a few more times. BRB!
