Boston, Massachusetts - Golden retriever Wally is a really emotional dog, so it's no wonder that he knows just what to do when his owner Jules Kuch isn't doing too well!

A TikTok video shows Jules sitting on the floor, burying her face in her hands and sobbing to herself – or at least pretending to!

Wally reacts immediately, approaching his owner with concern and gently nudging her shoulder.

When Kuch doesn't follows up with a desperate "I'm so sad," the pooch adorably gives her something approaching a hug.

Cats Kitten born with rare disorder beats the odds in touching video: "He proved them wrong"

He rests his snout on her shoulder and stays close, as if to say: "It's okay, have a good cry."

And Kuch does just that, sobbing loudly to herself again and again – until she finally gives up the act.

"I'm just pretending, I'm not sad anymore, I promise," she giggles as she puts her arms around the golden.

Wally doesn't seem convinced, though.

Now that he's in his mom's arms, he won't let her go – and gives her as much love as he possibly can.

"The goodest boy," gushed one commenter.

"he just had to make sure, no matter how long it takes," added another.
