Iris is a dog who is seven months into her training as a police dog. She takes her role very seriously and is doing well in training. She was out for a walk with her owner when they spotted a small fawn. The fawn immediately felt comfortable with the dog and put its trust in the dog.

The dog seemed to reciprocate and provide the small animal the attention she so desperately needed. The two nuzzled one another and the fawn was clearly so grateful to have the dog looking after her. After about an hour of caring for the fawn, the animal discovered how to get back home and left Iris.

Watch the video to see the adorable footage of these two animals together and the bond they shared.

It’s a good thing that dog is so caring!
