Man and His Dog Team Up for an Unforgettable Proposal – Watch the Video

Some of life’s best moments are the ones that feel the most authentic. This was certainly the case with an unforgettable proposal in Tel Aviv, Israel, involving a man, a woman, and a charming little pug. Nadav Weinberg, Director of Strategic Accounts at project44 in Illinois, orchestrated a sweet, surprising, and deeply personal moment that has since captured hearts around the world.

A Lazy Brunch with a Twist

The video opens with an idyllic scene: Debbie, Nadav’s girlfriend of over two and a half years, is strolling around a beautifully set table, taking in the cozy ambiance of a surprise brunch at home. The couple, who cherish quiet, intimate moments, seem to be enjoying a relaxed weekend morning—until their furry friend, Roxie the pug, makes her entrance.

With a ring box carefully Velcroed to her harness, Roxie trots into the room, unknowingly carrying the symbol of a life-changing question. Debbie’s face lights up with astonishment as Nadav drops to one knee and proposes. Her answer? A resounding yes, followed by hugs, kisses, and the kind of pure joy that only love can inspire.

The Heartfelt Details

But this proposal was more than just a question—it was a thoughtful reflection of everything Nadav and Debbie hold dear. “I wanted this special moment to be as 'us' as possible,” Nadav later shared. “The more I thought about what 'us' meant, the more I realized that Roxie, our pug, is a key part of our relationship and needed to be involved somehow.”

Planning wasn’t without its challenges. Nadav spent a month testing the ring box contraption on Roxie while Debbie was at work. Roxie’s initial reaction? Adorably chaotic. She rolled around on the ground, confused by the contraption, giving Nadav a glimpse of what might happen if the box opened unexpectedly. “I quickly realized that I would need to keep the ring box closed as often as possible or else risk losing the ring!” Nadav laughed.

The Second Surprise

As if Roxie’s involvement wasn’t heart-melting enough, Nadav had more surprises in store. After the proposal, he convinced Debbie they were headed to a rooftop party for a friend visiting from California. But when they arrived, Debbie was greeted with confetti, cheers from their closest friends, and a surprise serenade of When a Man Loves a Woman.

The surprises didn’t stop there. Debbie’s best friend, Shanny, who had seemed unreachable earlier, emerged from the crowd, prompting tears of joy and heartfelt embraces.

Love is in the Details

What makes this story so special is its deep sense of authenticity. Nadav didn’t just plan a proposal; he created a moment that celebrated the quirks, connections, and shared loves that define his relationship with Debbie. Roxie wasn’t just a cute addition—she was an integral part of their story, a constant reminder of the joy they share every day.

This proposal reminds us that love is about the little things: lazy brunches, goofy pets, and the ability to make someone feel like they’re the most important person in the world. It’s about creating moments that feel so uniquely “you” that they belong to no one else.

As Debbie and Nadav begin their next chapter together, we can’t help but wish them a lifetime filled with more surprises, laughter, and, of course, Roxie’s adorable antics.
