Adam Grimpo waited nine years for his dream to finally come true.
But after almost a decade, the Ohio boy finally got what he wanted.
Adam was gifted the dog he had always wanted on his 12th birthday.
His mom, however, wasn’t going to just give it to him.
So, she decided to tease him a bit before surprising him with his very own dog.
Adam’s emotional reaction to the big surprise was caught on video and had more than 30 million people in tears within two days.
The video starts with Adam unwrapping some presents.
“He’s been begging for a dog since he was 3 years old,” the text in the video states.
It was a basketball dog toy and a Stranger Things-themed walkie-talkie dog toy, according to ABC News.
But he doesn’t see his dad behind him, walking toward him with a puppy in his arms.
Mom, Sarah Grimpo, pretended like it was an accident and she had no idea that they were dog toys.
“Are you serious? They’re dog toys? I’m so sorry, bud, I guess you’re gonna need a dog,” Sarah can be heard saying off camera.
That’s when Adam looks to the left and his jaw completely drops.
