We often say that the dog is man’s best friend and there are several examples that prove this fact.
But Ben the puppy has a special and different best friend who will make your day.
If you ever travel to the beautiful Tory Island, off the northwest coast of Ireland, I recommend you take a trip to the harbor.
Not only is the scenery breathtaking, but you may see a Labrador dog hanging around. If you then watch what this dog does every day, I guarantee it will melt your heart.
Ben is very well-known in the area and has a very special personality.
Every morning this puppy goes to the shore where it jumps between the waves and swims in the cold waters.
It soon became apparent that Ben had a friend waiting in the water. And not any friend…but Duggie the Dolphin.
Duggie often likes swimming around the fishing boats in the harbor. And when this unlikely pair happened to bump into each other, it was love at first sight.
Duggie and Ben’s friendship might be a bit strange to some — I mean, it’s a dog living on land and a dolphin who lives in the water, but these friends don’t care.
It is a very beautiful thing to watch both of them play in the sea.
Almost every day, Ben and Duggie meet to play and have fun together. Talk about a wonderful friendship!
