Baby Lamb is rejected by mom and forms special bond with farm dog
The idea of a lamb and a dog becoming best friends might sound like something out of a children’s book. However, on one Oregon farm, it's a reality.
Farmer Olivia Akers shared footage and details of the special relationship between her dog, Max, and Beau, the lamb, on TikTok. Beau was rejected by her mother when she was a baby, but almost immediately, Max stepped in to take her place.
“The second Max laid eyes on Beau, that was HER baby,” Akers wrote. Adding that Max protected, cleaned, played with, and “most importantly” loved baby Beau.

Akers also noted that Beau lived a “unique but fulfilling” life with Max until she was big enough to go and live with the rest of the sheep.
However, the special bond is not lost as the pair still get to play with each other every day.
