A clingy pet dog held onto a toddler's back and walked on his hind legs - following him around and refusing to let go.

Footage shows the one-year-old Shih Tzu named Bruno with front limbs embraced around four-year-old Raven Paul Palayon's waist as they explored the living room close together in Cavite, the Philippines on November 24.

Bruno kept up with the pace of the kid but the youngster wearing a Super Man costume was moving too fast.

The family members were laughing at the adorable duo that play together every day inside the house.

Mum Rosana said: 'That is how they play. Bruno will follow Raven around. They are like siblings and are very close.

'The house is filled with laughter whenever they do that because they are very cute. It was pure good vibes.'
