A pit bull in Australia who had been adopted couldn’t go home with her new family. Try as they might, they couldn’t get her to budge. At least, not without her Chihuahua best buddy. So her new family adopted him, too!
Unfortunately, there really isn’t much else to this story. But sometimes the best things are the simple things.
“This beautiful pit bull wouldn’t leave the pound without the frightened Chihuahua she had protected. So the new owner adopted them together,” Mornington Peninsula Dog Lovers wrote on Facebook (the post has since been removed).

It would be awesome if all dogs wouldn’t leave without a friend. So many more would get homes!

And some say dogs don’t have souls!
I truly believe that dogs have souls that are more pure than humans and I’m certain that all dogs go to heaven!
Some are soulless idiots.

This did not occur in Australia. It occurred in California, United States. The dogs were saved by Rocket Dog Rescue based out of San Francisco and their names are Merrill and Taco. They were adopted by a wonderful family and have their own Facebook page.
When i adopted a surrendered pair it was a mother and son, took them both no question!
