"This is a heartwarming story of an unlikely friendship between Boss (the dog) and Chika (the duck). In this video, you can see their deep bond as she tells Boss to rest, and they cuddle together. Boss : A German Shepherd mix and a true "Christmas miracle". Eight years ago, during a -18°C freeze, he crawled into our yard starving, with a broken leg and fear-driven aggression. My 7-year-old daughter was the only one who calmed him. We healed him, and he became our gentlest protector. Chika (Duck): A brave survivor and the only duckling to escape a fox attack that claimed 5 others. After the tragedy, she sought comfort in Boss. He became her "surrogate parent" and lifelong protector." Credit:
