Dogs are the kindest, gentlest creatures on the planet – it’s just one of the many qualities that make them so easy to love! Their friendly nature has made them man’s greatest companion from a time before recorded history, and they’ve been known to befriend all sorts of other creatures, big and small.

This dog has even gone so far as to befriend the worms she meets on the street! Most of us forget about the tiny creatures or think that they’re creepy and gross. This dog is so amazingly caring that she takes the time to pick them up gently from the hot pavement, where they could dry out, and places them carefully into the cool grass, where they can burrow into the dirt!

If you’re not cringing at the thought of this dog licking you after saving these little lives, you’re definitely saying “aww!” right?

Dogs, you continue to amaze us with your generosity. You find new ways to surprise us and make us love you. We can’t wait to see what you do next!
