UK: Dogs are known for the loyalty and unconditional love that they shower upon the people and creatures they adore. Their affection knows no bounds. And, we have proof. It is a video of a dog, a Labrador, and ducklings.
The video, which has been uploaded by IFS officer Susanta Nanda on Twitter, showcases how love can establish a bond between creatures that are completely unrelated. We see the dog is having a fun time with a group of orphaned ducklings. And, they look pretty comfortable in each other’s company.
The Labrador is named Fred and is a resident of Mountfitchet Castle in Essex, UK. He had become an Internet sensation back in 2018 after his story of adopting nine orphaned ducklings went viral. The mother of the ducklings had disappeared after which the babies were found wandering alone around the castle. This is when Fred stepped in and became a single foster dad to the ducklings.
“We brought the ducklings into the house as they are too young to fend for themselves, and Fred just took them under his paw – rather than his wing,” Fred’s owner Jeremy Goldsmith had said. – NDTV
