The poor kitten looked like it wouldn’t make it to next week when thankfully, it was saved by the unlikely hero. The Golden Retriever knew its home would be a safe place for the small stray kitten and brought the kitten there straight away.

The kitten is tiny with already matted fur. The Golden Retriever knew the kitten would not survive on its own so this smart dog took matters into his own paws.

So, the Golden Retriever grabbed the stray kitten by its teeth and ran home to safety.

The beginning of the video is nerve-wracking to watch. While the amazing Golden Retriever knows he is doing the right thing, watching the small and frail kitten bounce around in its mouth is hard to watch.

But this Golden Retriever was on a mission to save!
