There are studies that show that animals can experience the same range of emotions as humans do. Our pets can feel anger, love, compassion, joy, and grief. And we can see evidence of this every day when dogs cry if they’re separated from their friends or when bison become foster moms for rescue bulls.
Bright Side is not going to convince you with words but we’ll let you see for yourself how parrots, dogs, and other animals can be best buddies.
1. “My dog looking like a proud dad next to my newborn nephew a few months ago...”
2. Double Brofist
3. An old dog named Schwabo always cries when he is separated from his best friend, Rocky.
4. “My dog made a friend at the park and they became inseparable. Turns out they were brother and sister.”
5. “My chicken has a hard time seeing, so my dog takes him around the yard when he can’t find the other chickens.”
6. We thought our husky got lost but it turns out she just made friends with a buck.

10. A soft pup with a cute noodle!
11. “My son and his kitten watching TV”
12. This Labrador is best friends with a duck.
13. When you’re too excited to see your buddy:

15. These llamas let a zebra join their squad after her mom died.
16. Doing yoga together
17. Twin brothers and the turkeys they raised
