Baby Chipmunk Burrows Into Giant 115-Pound Dog's Fur | The Dodo

While some will always oppose to people intervening in nature’s own issues, I can’t see what bad it can do to provide love and a safe haven to someone with a limited amount of time.

[@ahhh4851]

you can see in one video that there’s another dog!

[@florencemcgee7151]

I think so too! Charlie ( I think he is the breed Newfoundland ) needs a furbaby friend, and would make a very good foster dad, for orphaned baby animals that needed comfort, a warm body to nuzzle into, like this little chipmunk did, just like a real momma animal would do. I've seen many rescue groups have a nurturing dog care for the smaller orphans , until they got a little bigger and stronger, then gently play with them even outside until they are able to make it in the rescue on their own. These are very touching to watch too, except the endings are happy. Charlie could possibly be tested to be a foster dad doggie! His deep feelings over his orphan friend's passing touched me deeply too!😥😊😊🐶🐿️💜💜💜💙💙💙🙏🙏🌺🌺🌺

Dogs who have had a calm and loving family generally are not aggressive towards smaller creatures. My friend had a pet mouse and a gold retriever, no issues. The mouse would ride on the dog at times. Sadly not always the case. My family is calm and while my dog is now (Due to being 13) She wasn't always. When she was not calm we had degus, and my dog would sit by the cage, hoping that she could eat them. Whenever we took them out to clean the cage or just pay, my dog was there ready to snack on them if she could. Each of the degus passed (We had 4) Penny, Oreo, Twipper and Maria. Penny was the only male, and died early on. (was the most hyper and hated being held, ended up being so calm that it wanted to be held.) Oreo was very calm, and lost a foot from the real (Sinning wheel broke her foot and she started eating the dead flesh, eventually it was just a skeletal foot sticking out, And she eventually broke that off. We had gotten twipper to keep her company. Oreo passed around the age of 5. Twipper was about 3 when we got Maria. (Who was my sister's professor's degu and about the same age as twipper) He figured i was best to let them have companionship. They both eventually passed. Around the same time.

I’m crying so hard right now….Kip and Charlie, both, have touched my Soul. It hurts so much to see animals pass and animals grieve. I’m so happy Charlie has his stuffed chipmunk 🐿; something tangible to help ease his grief.

[@duaneh1973]

This is such a heartwarming story! I've watched this video everytime it comes up on my feed. Thank you for being compassionate people.

This is the kind of story that makes tough, grown men cry, when they're sure they're alone. Truly a touching story.

Sorry I hit the wrong button because of my tears. Grown man of 74years and I still cry makes me human 💔💔

Do you have to announce in a public forum that you are a grown man, more likely than not you are not a grown man.

Very sweet and very heartbreaking. Thank you all for caring and loving him ❤️

This really pulls on your heartstrings!!! To see such compassion Charlie had for that little chipmunk 😫😫😫! Must have really good owners to have such a loving dog.

Are not animals nothing less than amazing? There is no better emotional support than the love of an animal🐶

[@jamesrobinson8247]

God bless you for helping the chipmunk. This is such a sad story and I feel bad for Charlie too but you gave love to another living thing that was in need of it and that’s a wonderful thing you did. The world needs more people like you in it.

It's nice to know that there are still loving and caring people in this World. What a heartwarming story even though it didn't work out. You were able to give the Chipmunk what he needed when he needed it. God Bless You.

So sad yet so beautiful.Poor Charlie. I’m glad he was able to get some comfort. 🤗🥺💝

[@barbaraenglish3983]

PS: take Charlie to your nearest animal shelter and let him pick out his own little kitten. Charlie has so much love to give and such a need to take care of a little creature that it breaks my heart to see him unfulfilled. He is one of the sweetest dog I’ve ever seen. You are lucky to have each other. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@MayLily]

Agreed. Maybe adopting a kitten will make him happier now that we know this sweet boy likes to take care of tiny ones.

[@debbys-abqnm4537]

Good idea, but note that they had another dog like Charlie of the same size, so there is at least one more 4-legged family member to comfort Charlie. Sometimes in Dodo videos we don't get to see other pets, only the one(s) the video wants to focus on.

[@heatherhughes2955]

Charlie would probably make a great foster dad! If the whole house was up to for that. What a blessing Kip was. ❤️🙏🏼

[@InfiniteTriztan1111]

Exactly, Charlie needs another furry companion rather than just a stuffed animal.

[@barbaraenglish3983]

@@MayLily Hi May. Well if Charlie manages to find a little kitty that wants a doggie dad, promise us that you’ll take lots of videos because this is mostly a sad, crazy world and watching even 5 minutes of their antics would be like getting a sample of heaven.

[@lesterbronson2385]

Man, this made me cry. Losing a pet is as devastating as losing a person.

[@Veteransolo]

It's like losing your own family members, When my dog passed away, You should have seen my parents how much more they were crying, I was very sad, But my parents? I never ever seen them losing their minds like that. My father never liked animals, When we found my dog, I was 6, he was a puppy, not even a year old. He was the reason my father staryed to love animals, He was literally family. That's life...

[@dhirajgawande007]

Tis is why I don't have pets. I would be devastated

[@user-vr5zk9ox8d]

Losing people is worse, from someone who has lost plenty of both. I agree that we must mourn loss, but nothing really compares to when you lose a child, mother, father, or siblings.

[@lou3932]

This really hit me. The feeling of losing someone or something you care about is something you can’t explain. So, when I see a pet go through that and not be able to say exactly how they feel, my heart just breaks for them.

[@Pluhowski1]

Kip had a good time and probably loved it 🥰 so much

[@Pluhowski1]

He was so cute So sad I cried

[@TheToscanaMan]

My heart breaks for Charlie. What a sweet dog. Kip had the best life he could with Charlie as a friend and Kristin's nursing care.

[@lovewindycity]

This video brought tears to my eyes because life is sooooo fragile. Our fur babies have feelings, they grieve, go through depression and bounce back just like us!!! 😌

[@howardpower]

The most important thing out of this was Kip given a chance and lived out the best moments before his passing.

[@amandageorgia994]

Heart touching story, thank you for giving kip the most beautiful days on this earth 🥺❤
