Adorable dog reacts in the cutest way to Lion King's saddest scene

The Lion King is many people’s favorite Disney movie, and it seems like it’s Luna’s favorite, too.

The clever four-month-old pup was transfixed by the emotional scene in which Simba reacts to the death of his father, Mufasa. Luna seemed to fully understand what was happening on screen, whimpering in response and lying down at the same time as Simba lay next to his father.

Owner Josh Myers said, “To see her crying at the TV was the sweetest thing I think I’ve ever seen.”

It is unbelievable how the dog seemingly expressed the same emotions people felt watching this scene. They are smarter than we think they are. Empathetic like humans.

Me: just browsing YouTube

YouTube: hey you wanna see lion king but it’s even more depressing?

[GuyFerzOfficial]

Looks like he understood the sadness of the scene between Simba and his pops, but not the evilness around Scar.
