Heart-warming moment dog coaxed down's syndrome boy to play with him

A video has been posted online showing the heart-warming moment a gentle dog befriended a young boy with Down's Syndrome and persuades the child to play.

The little boy was initially reluctant to play but after much persuasion from the dog, he starts to play with the dog. See the video after the cut...
