Sometimes, friendships are instant — a spark that just lights between two people (or animals!).

Other times, these relationships take time to grow. First impressions aren’t everything, after all!

Still, one first meeting between a Bernese Mountain Dog and a friend’s pet hamster is making the rounds because it is just so funny. Clearly, this pup is not excited about meeting a new furry friend!

In the video, the pup (named San) moves his face away from the hamster, trying to dodge eye contact and looking generally uncomfortable. However, a short while later, San warmed up to the little guy!

Why the sudden change?

Well, one reason could be that San, himself, became a father, which meant getting used to a squirmy little furball demanding your attention all the time!

See more of San’s adventures through his Instagram page.

Unfortunately, he passed in 2018. However, his life and his personality are commemorated there, a testament to how much he meant to everyone he met!
