Dogs separated as puppies bump into each other on walk and share adorable hug

When out for a walk, there's nothing better than coming across a cute dog.

But what happens when a cute dog crosses paths with another cute dog - and they realise they know each other?

We can confirm that it results in the sweetest of moments.

This happened recently to Cockapoos Monty and Rosie, who had been born in the same litter, making them siblings.

The pair had been separated as puppies when they were taken to their forever homes and hadn't seen each other in around 10 months.

But while out for walks with their respective owners one day, they just so happened to bump into each other.

The two dogs remembered one another almost instantly and luckily, Monty's owner snapped some shots of the pair of them reuniting.

The fluffy pups look as if they are hugging one another in the pictures, which were shared on Twitter and quickly went viral.

Libby Pincher tweeted the story after her dad told her all about it. One of the dogs belonged to her father's friend, named Dave.

She tweeted: "pls look at what my dad sent me this morning I cannot even."

Alongside this she shared the dog photos and a message from her dad which read: "So, Dave was out walking his dog and there was a couple walking towards him with a white version of his dog.

"Turns out they are brother and sister from the same litter, but instead of just playing like they do with other dogs, look at this..."

More than 936,000 liked the tweet and over 186,000 retweeted it.

Rosie's owner Susan Killip later spoke to The Dodo about the heartwarming moment.

She said: "There were six of them, but Monty and Rosie were always together.

"It was so lovely, they both just jumped up and hugged each other.

"It was amazing they remembered each other after 10 months of not seeing each other."
