The story began when Barton, a two-year-old dog, started helping out with picking up the girl from nursery school. A touching video shared by the girl’s teacher shows Barton waiting patiently with the girl’s father, ready for his special task.
With a gentle pat from the father, Barton gets into position, sliding into the harness of a rickshaw like a pro. Once the little girl is settled comfortably, Barton starts pulling the rickshaw down the street with steady steps. The sight of Barton and the girl cruising down the road together is truly charming.
According to the girl's father, who shared this story on Douyin, Barton—who is lovingly called "Uncle Ton"—was trained over a few weeks for this job. Barton seems to enjoy his role, and the parents are always with them, making sure everything goes smoothly.

Sometimes, the little girl even walks alongside Barton, concerned that he might get tired…
Besides his chauffeur duties, Uncle Ton also helps the family with delivering parcels, proving that dogs are not just pets but can be wonderful helpers too. Barton’s story is a beautiful reminder of the special bond between pets and their families, bringing a lot of happiness into their lives.
