In what netizens are calling the 'sweetest story', four flatmates in the UK wrote a letter to their neighbour and requested to let them play with the owner's dog. However, to their surprise, they received an even 'better response' from the dog himself with a letter imprinted with her paw. One of the four boys residing in Britain, Jack McCrossan shared the story on social media and it has gone viral because the four-legged friend, Stevie said she was 'delighted' to receive a typed letter from the engineers who can not have a dog due to restrictions by their landlord. Stevie's owners wrote a letter from their dog's side and elaborated about the kind of treat she would like and the games she would play. 

The story about the letters was shared last week, and since it went viral, hundreds of Twitter users started asking about the 'update' if the boys met Stevie. Soon on December 15, they replied with a photo showing the boys laughing with their 'new friend' in the front. Their story has reached hundreds and thousands of people and has been retweeted by 1,10,890 people. The dog, who also has an Instagram account, shared the post by McCrossan with a caption 'what a lovely adventure it has been' and some pictures from their meet.
