A compassionate dog provided comfort and care to a 9-day-old foal who had been left orphaned following the death of his mother.
The dog, named Zip, stayed with the foal all night, whining sympathetically and laying by his neck to offer emotional support.
Zip continued to look after the foal for several weeks, eagerly awaiting their daily visits and spending time with him. Eventually, the foal grew up to be a healthy horse and became more independent, but the bond between Zip and the foal will always remain.
It’s heartwarming to witness the kindness and empathy that animals can show towards one another, especially during difficult times.
