Like humans, animals can form unbreakable bonds with each other. No one knows the strength of a bond like a dog. These are extremely loyal creatures who would do anything for their loved ones. These two pups are no different.
Merrill and Taco are best friends. Merrill is a three-year-old pit bull, and Taco is an eight-year-old chihuahua. They met at the Rocket Dog Rescue shelter, where they lived together for years.
According to their website, “Rocket Dog Rescue is a volunteer based organization…dedicated to saving homeless and abandoned dogs from over crowded animal shelters… [Their] ultimate goal is to create a world where all companion animals have loving and permanent homes and where no good natured dogs, no matter what their age, are killed in shelters because they are considered to be surplus or un-adoptable.”
It did not take long for Merrill and Taco to form a strong bond with each other. During their time at the rescue shelter, Merrill needed surgery. The operation was a matter of life or death, and Taco proved to be a true friend.
This loyal dog did not leave Merrill’s side during the entire duration of the surgery. The two were completely inseparable. If they were apart from each other for any reason they would both cry loudly until they could be reunited.
Now, it was Merrill’s turn to prove her loyalty to Taco. When a potential owner came in looking to adopt an animal, he fell in love with Merrill. But the pup refused to leave Taco’s side.
When the adoptive father came to pick up the dog, Merrill would not stop crying. Neither would Taco. It was clear that these two pups could not be separated.
Luckily, the owner had a big heart. He decided to take both of the dogs home with him. Both dogs were eternally grateful that they did not have to spend their days apart.
Now, Merrill and Taco are happily living at their forever home. They have found a loving family, and – most importantly – they were able to stay together. These dogs will be best friends for the rest of their lives.
This heartwarming story is proof that some bonds can never be broken. When we love someone, we need to have them in our lives. It is fortunate that this owner was so compassionate and full of love.
