Watch the incredible friendship between a dog and a deer

It’s an amazing animal friendship that will warm your heart. No matter if you watched it or not – you should. This adorable video has been circling the internet and touching hearts online. The video captures the special bond between a dog and a deer.

In the 39-second-long clip, Kate the dog and Pippin the deer are seen frolicking in the yard together. They interact by nuzzling each other, running around, and even hugging during their time together. Like many other animal friendships, these two don’t seem to care that they are completely different species.

Interspecies Love

When Pippin the deer was just a helpless fawn, Kate the Great Dane adopted her as her own. They have been the best of friends ever since. A true example of interspecies love.

The owner of Kate, Isobel Springett, originally posted the video on YouTube in 2010. It has recently been re-posted to r/aww and has once again gained the love of the internet.
