Jogi the dog stunned his owner Marcin when he carried a trembling little bundle of fur into his garden in Piskórka, Poland. The gentle giant found the abandoned baby bunny at the far end of the backyard and the two instantly bonded. According to Jogi’s owner, the dog never left the bunny’s side and guarded the animal against all harm like only a loyal dog could. Mr Marcin said: “My dog took care of the bunny, defended it and wouldn’t even let people touch it.”

The cute animals were filmed cosily snuggling up to each other, rolling around in the grass and generally having the time of their lives. But despite the cuteness overdose Mr Marcin had to separate the two best friends on advise of not housing wild animals. The dog owner told Kontakt24: “I have read on the internet you should not domesticate these types of animals so I decided to take it off my property and to a local forest. “However my dog decided to continuously bring the rabbit back to our property.
