Animal Heroes: This canine duo have an unusually strong bond, refuses to leave friend shot 38 times

  • 9 years ago
This 18-month-old pointer cross refused to leave her male friend, a 2-year-old setter cross after he’d been shot 38 times with a poisonous lead pellet gun.

Even though the pooches are Greek, not Italian, they have been nicknamed Romeo and Juliet because they just can’t be separated.

It was Romeo who had been shot and left for dead in a ditch half-filled with water. Juliet refused to leave his side and stayed with him for three days without food, barking at passersby until someone investigated and called animal services.

When animals services arrived, they had not expected to bring Juliet along, but she wouldn’t leave Romeo’s side so they took them both in. One of the rescuers commented that the pair were special, it was unusual to see such a strong bond between animals.

Now Holbrook Animal Rescue have flown the two dogs to Gatwick, England, from Greece to start their new lives together. The center will be placing them with a new owner, because whoever takes one will definitely have to take the other one.
