"I kept calling his name and he couldn't come, which is so unlike him," Doyle told Newsweek in an interview.

When they found him, Doyle was in tears.

As her daughter was sound asleep, she soon spotted something unusual on the video in her baby's room.

"I heard him shake his head and his collar jingled on the baby monitor," she told the outlet.

Doyle moved the camera on the monitor by remote control. Lo and behold, her furry friend was sitting in front of the little one's crib, keeping watch. Doyle was overcome with emotion at the sight.

"I cried, I thought it was sooo cute!" she said.

"He has been so protective of her and never leaves her side. It's adorable."

She went on to say Boomer had hardly left her baby's side since the day she was born.
