After a two-month-stint studying abroad, a student returning to her family home in Peru was greeted by the pup she had left behind.

Valeria Cornejo, who had left Lima to study in New York on August 4, 2018, had returned in late September the same year to find that one of her golden retriever pups, Sunset, had gotten a lot bigger and was unbelievably happy to see her.

Sunset can be seen leaping into Cornejo's arms and squealing with canine happiness seeing his human come home to him.

She commented: "When I had to leave for the workshop Sunset was only 4 months old, he just got his shots he was truly a little baby and puppies grow so fast!"
