Loving dog wraps its paws around owner for a hug - just like a human

This is the adorable moment a dog wrapped her paws around her owner for a hug - just like a human.

Owner Katerina Spasibo, 40, from Russia, originally taught Ryba, a four-year-old Afghan hound, the “hug” command as a trick.

But the affectionate pup enjoyed it so much that she now does it on her own and without prompt.
