Milo is a tiny dachshund dog and Bonedigger is a 500-pound lion. Why can’t this unlikely pair be best friends? The puppy and the lion were introduced at 4-weeks old and they have been together ever since.
Take a look at these adorable photos of Bonedigger and his companions…
A mildly crippled lion named Bonedigger formed a bond with a miniture sausage dog named Milo…
Bonedigger was born with a bone disease that left him partially disabled…
Over the past 5 years, the two have always been together…
Milo even goes so far as to pick Bonedigger’s teeth…
Milo and three other dogs sensed that the lion was disabled as a cub, and sought to comfort and protect him…
And in the process, they became best buddies…
Now the 5 year-old and his dachshund companions are inseparable…
Even the park manager, who lost his legs in a bungee jumping accident, is accepted by the animals…
The 5-year-olds go way back, according to the animal expert from Oklahoma who introduced them. Experts now believe that this disability that left Bonedigger disabled is the reason for the connection between the animals. If only humans could see past disabilities and love like this!
