Thoughtful Dog Only Eats Half The Food In Her Bowl, Saving Some for Her Brother Who Recently Died

We already know that dogs make the simplest friends and are known to be extremely loyal animals, but this story is further proof. If it doesn’t melt your stony heart, nothing will.

Actor and filmmaker Easton Dufur had two yellow Labradors, Cookie and Stitch, who shared a really special bond with not only him but also one another .

Dufur shared a story about them on Twitter that aroused going viral and stimulated the emotions of thousands. You’re getting to want the tissues for this one.


Dufur explained on Twitter that Stitch and Cookie always shared a food bowl. Stitch had trained Cookie to only eat half the food in order that Stitch was ready to have some when she was done. Cookie caught on quickly, and ever since she was a puppy, she would go away half the food so her doggy brother could eat some. Their special bond was evident in their ability to place their instincts aside and share food with each other .

Sadly, Stitch recently gave up the ghost , so now Cookie is without him for the primary time. Cookie clearly misses her buddy Stitch, but Easton later noticed something he didn’t expect that made his heart melt.

Easton has been putting less food within the bowl since Cookie is that the just one eating out of it now. Theoretically, Cookie should be ready to eat the entire thing herself, since it’s about an equivalent amount of food she was eating before. But she has refused to empty the bowl, stubbornly leaving some behind for her pal.

“Well before I visited bed, I wanted to ascertain to see if [Cookie] ate. then I did, and she or he still left half her food there so Stitch can eat,” Easton wrote.

Whether it had been out of habit, or Cookie still had hope that her brother Stitch would be returning to share her food, this is often pretty heart-breaking and heart-warming all at once!

Dogs are so smart and loving, and this story just goes to point out how loyal they really are.
