It can be said, and I am sure you’ll agree, that dogs running up to greet you after a long day of work is one of the greatest things to experience in life. The utter unconstrained joy and excitement at the fact that you exist is one of the many reasons we adore our four-legged companions so much. But will a dog forget about you after years of separation? Thankfully, they won’t, as seen in this story!
A blind and deaf puppy got to see her grandpa – her owner’s dad – after a year they’d spent apart and, despite the man fearing a lost connection, the pup went into excitement overdrive.

Bitsy, a very special dog, born without sight or hearing, hadn’t seen her grandpa in over a year, due to COVID restrictions

A wholesome video was shared on TikTok of a man, named Steve, reuniting with his daughter’s dog, named Bitsy. The pup, owned by Hayden Kristal, is incredibly special as she was born without sight or hearing, yet that didn’t stop the woman from taking in the pup at 5 weeks old.
They were at first concerned as to how the dog would cope with life but she quickly showed that there was no need to worry. “She has been her own woman since day one,” Hayden told The Dodo. “The first thing she did when I brought her home was to make a beeline for the food dish, crawl into it and eat until she passed out.”
Steve worried that the pup would not recognize him anymore, however, those worries were soon gone as the pup excitedly greeted him

Now, five years later, she’s a beautiful energetic dog, just as she was as a baby, enjoying her days with a few siblings and her mum. When COVID restrictions went into effect last year, Bitsy and her mom had to separate from family in order for all of them to be safe. That meant a full year of the pup and dad not seeing each other.
The caption said that her dad was very worried that Bitsy wouldn’t recognize him after a year apart, however, that wasn’t the case, as the dog immediately recognized the embrace of her grandpa. She was jumping up and down, licking at the man’s face. A smile never left Steve’s face, the man as overjoyed to see the dog as she was to see him.
Jumping up and down and licking Steve’s face, it was difficult to figure out who was happier in that instance: the man or dog
