Interspecies Friendship
PexelsIt’s not that rare to see two animals from different species form an adorable friendship. We often see cats and dogs live peacefully inside a house but a dog and a deer being the best of friends? Now that’s new.
Meet Huey
PexelsHuey is a dependable dog rescued nine years ago by his mom named Holly Faulconer, and he has become very much protective of her.
Uninvited Guest
PexelsOne day, Holly saw a deer on her property, trying to steal some seeds from her bird feeder, but instead of telling the deer to go away, she found it interesting.
Meet Sassafras
PexelsHolly named the deer Sassafras, and eventually, she started visiting Holly’s yard for a completely different purpose.
A New Friend

Huey’s Reaction
Instagram, hollister_faulconerHolly said, “Huey was a little confused at first and definitely cautious. I would just talk to them both and make sure they both felt safe. Slowly, they just started talking over the fence!”
Precious Friendship

Daily Visit
Instagram, hollister_faulconerAccording to Holly, “This deer visits a few times a week,” and it might have taken her a few visits before getting Huey’s complete trust, but now they’re best of friends and are probably thinking of how to get rid of the fence that’s separating them.
