I Lean: Seeing-Eye-Goose Befriends Blind Dog
04/25/2011
Take a gander at this animal odd couple!
A blind Boxer named Baks has gotten a whole new lease on life thanks to a good samaritan goose named Buttons. Yes, you read that right. This is not a joke.
Baks has been taken under the 'wing' of Buttons, a four-year-old goose who now leads her vision-impaired pal around everywhere either by hanging onto him with her neck, or by honking to tell him which way to go. How hilarious is that?!
Owner Renata Kursa of Lublin, Poland, was heartbroken when poor lil' Bak was left blind after an accident last year. But gradually Buttons got him up on his feet and starting walking him around. They're inseparable now - they even chase the postman together,' Kursa tells the Telegraph UK.
Go Buttons! What's good for the goose is also apparently good for...the...boxer.
Heart warming...

Baks is lucky to have Buttons. What a great story for an otherwise boring Monday.

I rehab and rescue squirrels and I just recently saw a very compassionate act between two old squirrels that have been together in my care for almost ten years. You can read about it here: http://squirrellady.org/forum/index.php?topic=131.0 Animals most definitely have compassion and feelings that most people to not attribute to them. This was a very nice and touching story about these two animals.

This is why, often times, I like animals better than people. Cool story...

The idea that animals have no emotions came from religious and commercial fantasies that they are Here For Us and Have No Feelings. Whatever good we have -- love, compassion, memory, grief -- came from them. We need to remember our our own roots and respect our animal sibs.
