Xander Mellor is a cheerful, bright-eyed 6-year-old boy from Springfield, Illinois, who has saved over the past 18 months to buy a puppy.
Whenever Natalie Ellenburg, his mother, returned from work, he politely asked her to change her little things and diligently put the banknotes in the savings jar.
Xander even stopped spending money on sweets and toys because he desperately wanted a puppy just for him. When his grandparents heard about the boy’s effort, they decided to pay a visit to their beautiful nephew, an opportunity to fulfill his wish!
In the video below, we see Xander happily leaving the house when he sees his grandparents’ car. As she walks amusingly to the car door to greet them, her grandmother asks her to close her eyes and reach out to receive the “gift.” The boy smiles happily while waiting for his grandmother’s surprise, but immediately his eyes open in total amazement watching an adorable puppy sitting in his arms!
Xander tries to smile gratefully at his grandmother, but he can’t control his emotions. The child begins to cry with tears of happiness as he holds his much-loved puppy to his chest.
We wish Xander many years of joy and adventure in the company of his furry friend!
