Six-year-old Xander Mellor from Springfield, Illinois, had been diligently saving for 18 months with a single goal in mind: to buy a puppy. Every day, when his mother, Natalie Ellenburg, returned home from work, he would politely ask her for any spare change. He would then carefully deposit the coins into his savings jar, watching his dream gradually come closer to reality.

Xander had stopped buying sweets and delicious things because he wanted a puppy of his own. When his grandparents heard about his charming quest, they decided to pay him a visit to make his wish come true!

In this video, Xander happily runs out of the house as soon as he sees his grandparents’ car. Grandma asks him to close his eyes and stretch his hands out for a “present” as he approaches the vehicle door.

The boy is ‘all smiles’ as he waits for Grandma’s present, but his eyes open in absolute shock when he sees a cute little puppy placed in his arms!

Xander tried to smile gratefully for Grandma but he couldn’t contain his emotions for long. The overwhelmed kid ends up crying happy tears as he adorably holds his cherished puppy. We wish Xander many joyful and adventurous years as he makes memories with his furry buddy!
