    The seal finally rests its head on the golden Labrador at the end of the adorable footage shot on the beach

    WATCH VIDEO:



    This is the extraordinary moment a seal snuggles up with a golden Labrador on a beach in France.
     
    In the footage shot by Elise Frebourg it shows the seal - christened 'You' by locals - shuffling over to the Labrador lying on the sand.   The seal then pats the dog with its paw before nuzzling up to the Labrador in the heart-warming scene.
     
    Since the video from Le Cap Ferret, in south west France, was uploaded last week, it has already been viewed more than 100,000 times. 
     
    Last month, the attention-seeking seal was filmed climbing over surfers and their boards in Lacanau, France.   
     
    The footage, captured by Bertrand Chaussade using a camera mounted on his surf board, shows the seal repeatedly approaching him and swimming over his board.
     
    'He played with us for the whole morning. He would climb on my board, ask for strokes and push me over. It was like playing with a little dog, it was a very playful and loving animal. It was a beautiful encounter and a magical moment' Mr Chaussade later wrote online.

    Puppy love: A dog walker captured this rare moment when a young seal started playing with her Golden Retriever by the Thames near Greenwich in London
     
    But the Golden Retriever quickly backs away as the seal makes its way towards her on to a river walkway


    February 27, 2013 - Lone young seal has been captured on camera playing hide and seek with a Labrador dog in a touching moment filmed by the Thames.

    The rare scene was captured on a mobile phone Nicola White and David Nolan as they took their dog Mischa by the river in Greenwich, London, earlier this month.

    Within seconds of the footage starting, a young Harbour seal can be seen leaping out of the water and landing on a river walkway right next to the dog.
