The video, posted June 24 on TikTok, shows Theo waiting by Coco’s front door like a true “gentleman.”
“He waits at her door every night for their nightly play date and gets worried if she takes too long to come play or forgets to text him she made it home safe,” the video, which has garnered over 3.8 million views as of June 27, said.
Unfortunately for Theo, Coco’s owners had already taken her for a lap around the Irvine community, the video showed. It’s captioned, “He picks her up every night.”
Theo eventually sniffed out where his lady was and sprinted to greet her.
Hall, who lived in New York for the past few years, moved back to Irvine in December, and she and Theo met Coco after moving into her new complex.
It was love at first sight.
“They met on a walk in January or February and were instantly super connected,” Hall said. “They were instantly drawn to each other, basically infatuated with each other.”
Hall’s neighbor lived across the community but recently moved to a new unit near her building, leaving Theo and Coco aware of where each other lives.
“We basically time it now. We text with the other owner, and they meet up twice a day. Once in the afternoon and once at night before bedtime,” Hall said.
But Hall said Theo is eager to see his girlfriend.
“About 15 minutes before we’re supposed to meet up, Theo starts pacing,” she said. “If you even say her name, he perks up, whines and barks.”

From their meet cute of a walk in the park, the couple’s relationship has evolved. Now, the two even partake in sleepovers.
“Coco’s owner is a teacher so she’ll sometimes come over and hang out with Theo when she’s at work,” Hall said. “When me and my boyfriend go out of town, Theo usually sleeps over at Coco’s.”
Commenters were quick to express their adoration for Theo’s devotion to Coco with one saying, “He even greeted the parents first. What a gentleman.”
Another joked and said, “This dog makes more of an effort than 90% of men I’ve dated.”
As for more Theo and Coco content, Hall said, “We’re going to try and make this a series. The comments on our TikTok were literally demanding more cuteness.”
Irvine is about 40 miles southeast of Los Angeles.
