It's not often Reese Witherspoon shares photos of her children on Instagram, particularly of her youngest, her eight-year-old son Tennessee. So when the Little Fires Everywhere actress uploaded a sweet snap of her child lying on the floor bonding with the family's pet dog, fans all came to the same conclusion – the moment was heartwarming.
"Tennessee's best bud, Major the lab puppy.... plus a very important Minnie Pearl t-shirt cameo," Reese wrote, making reference to the family's other equally adorable pet pooch Minnie.
"Such an ADORABLE duo!!! They are so cute," one follower replied, while another quipped: "The pawfect pair!"

Taking to Instagram, Ava wrote: "He is the happiest, smartest boy, and I'm so grateful to be his person. I cannot wait for him to perfect his manners and become his full, goofy self as time goes on!"
