The last few months have been devastating for most as we spend time apart from our loved ones. Now more than ever, everyone needs a little cheering up. A little serotonin boost, if you will.

What else could possibly be more endearing than a baby elephant bonding with its new friend, a dog?

The mischievous relationship between an infant elephant, Yindee, playing around in Thailand's Elephant Nature Park with a dog named Milo has bewitched the twitterverse.

NDTV reports that although the video was taken in 2015, it has gone viral recently due to Susanta Nanda, an Indian Forest Services officer, re-posting it on Thursday.

"Friends come in all sizes and shapes" he captioned the clip of the charming duo chasing each other around.

The One Green Planet stated that it was the very first time the recused baby elephant had crossed its path with a dog.

Yindee was born in 2013 at the park. Her mother was reportedly a street begging elephant who died tragically when hit by a car.

The baby elephant has since then been growing up at the Elephant Nature Park.
