On Tuesday, Capitals defenseman Radko Gudas tweeted out a photo of him and his son meeting Captain. Now, listen, the photo is of course sweet. A small child meeting a puppy? It’s the quintessential “cute” photo.
But, I’m here to let you know that there is an extra layer of adorable that you might have missed.
First, here’s the tweet.

Here’s the original photo.

Now let’s zoom.

One more time.

The little hand hanging on to dad’s big finger? Put this series of photos in the International Museum of Cute (not sure if it exists, but it should).
