Meet Jack Sparrow, the feisty Dalmatian who loves his horse family; Nevada, a 9-year-old Appaloosa stallion and Napoleon, a 5-year-old Shetland pony.
In an interview with Just Something, Greetje Hakvoort, founder of the Human & Horse Hotel had this to say about their unique and adorable relationship, "When Jack Sparrow saw Napoleon for the first time as a puppy, he started to jump towards him, because he thought Napoleon was his family, and since then he always wanted to be around him. Nevada and Jack are both calm, they like to be around each other, and love to do tricks for me together, while Napoleon is really funny and definitely lives up to his name, having a strong temperament and acting like a little king".

Talk about being meant for each other! When Nick, 31, of Maine, came across Emerson's Facebook post, a foster-based rescue, he was immediately drawn to Emerson. Emerson's foster care helper, Lindsay Powers, told Good Morning America, "[Emerson] had such a rough start to life and he ended up with an absolute fairy tale ending." We are so happy Nick and Emerson found each other.

When Douglas "Doug" Pojeky, president of Wild at Heart Rescue., Mississippi, treated the great horned owl named GiGi from a near-death experience, a strong bond was formed. And when Pojeky went away to visit his family in Michigan, he was clearly missed. Upon returning back to work, he immediately went to check up on GiGi. GiGi slowly walked up to him, gave him a hug, and wouldn't stop. 

The actor, who lives in New Zealand, posted a photo of the animals walking side-by-side in a paddock, saying it is what "friendship looks like." Others took the opportunity to share similar photos of their own animals and their unlikely friendships.

If you ever need proof that dog is man's best friend, look no further than Instagram page of  Reagan the labradoodle and "Little Buddy"—his family's foster child—who do everything together. Reagan was adopted by Oregon resident Sandi Swiridoff when he was just 11 months old. Swiridoff was overjoyed when the puppy—a cross between a Labrador Retriever and a Poodle—instantly hit it off with another special 11-month-old: her foster grandchild. From snuggling in bed and throwing miniature pajama parties to strolling outside and lounging by the lake, the duo does everything together—and, with their matching clothes and costumes, they do it in style. Understandably overwhelmed with cuteness, Swiridoff began documenting their heartwarming bond on her Instagram page, Reagandoodle. Now, five years later, the account has over 490,000 followers. Its popularity has also given way to an Etsy shop, where Swiridoff will be selling her still-in-progress picture book about Reagan's relationship with Little Buddy. The book is set to bring attention to the the importance of foster care, and proceeds will benefit Foster Parents' Night Out, a non-profit organization.
