The best thing about big dogs is how unbelievably patient they are. Huge dogs interact with babies, puppies, and other tiny animals, and they always keep their cool. It is so cute to watch them hang out with their tiny friends.
Big dogs are known for their good behavior, and Nimbus is no exception. This fluffy white dog gets his name from the fact that he looks like a dog-height cloud. This pup’s patience was put to the test when he met a brand new friend.
Nimbus lives with his owner, and she has recently expanded their little family. The girl got a hedgehog for her birthday, and she instantly fell in love. Poki-Hontas is an African pigmy hedgehog, and she is the cutest thing ever. Poki’s owner was excited to meet her, but not as much as Nimbus was.
“We had to teach him that Poki was Friend not food !!!” the dog’s owner explains in her YouTube video caption. The pup might have misunderstood at first, but soon all he wanted was to be the hedgehog’s friend. Nimbus and Poki’s owner compiled a video of their interactions, and it is so adorable.
One day Nimbus decided that he wanted to play with Poki. The dog got pretty close to the hedgehog, then he lowered his face to the ground. But the spiky fellow just continued on with her business – she didn’t even pay attention to the pup. As Nimbus extended a paw, Poki turned around and walked away.
The dog must have been crushed, but he waited patiently for the tiny creature to take an interest in him. He watched from afar as the hedgehog repeatedly got her head stuck in a paper roll.
The pup’s waiting paid off, however, when it was finally time to play. The little hedgehog crawled over to the dog, and they instantly became best friends. Now Poki loves crawling all over Nimbus, and the big dog adores his tiny playmate.
This hedgehog certainly leads a charmed life. She gets to hang out with another animal, but she also gets plenty of love from her human.
She is an absolute sucker for belly rubs.
Now the dog and hedgehog duo are practically glued at the hip. They do everything together, including eat.
It may have taken time for Poki to warm up to Nimbus, but now the two make a terrific team. Their friendship shows what great things can happen when you practice patience.
