Puppies are basically just like little kids, right?

You bet they are!

And, just like kiddos, they need encouragement when they try out new things!

A woman named Gina showed TikTok viewers how her partner encouraged their puppy to make the treacherous journey down a flight of stairs.

The video’s text overlay reads, “His daddy hyping him up to go down the stairs is the cutest thing.”

The puppy was at the top of the staircase and the man said, “Trust in yourself,” “come on, boy,” and  “good job!”

The dog was obviously inspired and finally made his way down the stairs.

The video’s caption reads, “This is the cutest thing ever!”

Here’s the video.
