It’s undeniable that the bond between two best friends is unbreakable, even among animals. Whether in the wild or in captivity, animals have a remarkable ability to form close relationships with others.
Take the heartwarming story of Merrill, a three-year-old pit bull, and Taco, an eight-year-old Chihuahua, for instance. Both dogs found themselves at the Rocket Dog Rescue shelter in San Francisco, and despite their differences in size and breed, they became inseparable best friends.

When a man visited the shelter and fell in love with Merrill, he decided to adopt her. However, when the time came for Merrill to leave the shelter, she simply couldn’t bear to part with her best friend. The staff at Rocket Dog Rescue realized just how strong their bond was and explained the situation to the man, who ultimately understood and decided to adopt another dog instead.

After a while, the shelter found a family willing to adopt both Merrill and Taco, who were overjoyed to be together once again. However, the family soon discovered that Taco was suffering from a number of health issues, including asthma, dental disease, an enlarged heart, and fluid in his lungs.
Thankfully, the family was able to provide Taco with the medication he needed and shower him with love and affection, which helped with his recovery. Now, both dogs are thriving in their new home and enjoy spending time outside together, despite Taco’s ongoing respiratory problems.
