Interspecies friendship is a sight to be seen. What about the fact that some creatures do not coexist? One day Holly Faulconer saw a deer approaching her bird feeder with the intention of stealing some seeds. She laughed at the deer instead of shooing it away.
But soon the young deer, which she named Sassafras, began appearing for an entirely different reason. Holly’s puppy, Huey, became her new best friend.
They created a unique bond.
Holly saved Huey nine years ago, and the two have remained close ever since. Huey is extremely protective of Holly since he loves her so much.
Knowing this, Holly was surprised when Sassafras started showing symptoms of wanting to get along with Sassafras instead of seeing the curious deer as a threat.
Around Sassafras, Huey was at ease.
Holly remembered how her dog Huey behaved around the deer at first. “At first Huey was a little perplexed and obviously nervous,” Holly remarked. “I would merely speak to them both and ensure that they were secure. They just began conversing slowly over the fence!
In no time at all, they were able to become friends.
Although many animals have formed incredible bonds, reading about a dog and a deer getting along is unusual.
It is very priceless.
Holly shared a clip of Huey and Sassafras connecting over the fence on Instagram. Despite the physical distance separating the two creatures, she could catch the lovely moment of them spending time together.
Holly wrote affectionately, “This deer visits a few times a week.” They had to make a few trips, but they are now buddies.
The video attracted interest right away.
The post has more than 147 thousand likes and 1,100+ comments as of this writing. The amazing friendship Huey and Sassafras share clearly moves people.
