A Chihuahua fell in love at first sight with a giant plush toy, but the story behind it is quite heartbreaking...

Today I'm sharing a story about canine friendship—

When Tim the Chihuahua first saw this large plush toy, he seemed to fall in love with it immediately, effortlessly lying down on it as if he had done it countless times before...



The pet owner was very pleased to see this: Do you miss Ben too? Hopefully, the plush toy can replace Ben and continue to bring you warmth.



The story begins in 2016 when Tim, a Chihuahua, came to a foster home for recuperation and met Ben, a 7-year-old Great Pyrenees.



The huge size difference didn't become a barrier between them; the two dogs quickly became good friends. Several times a day, their owner would walk into the living room to find Tim sleeping on top of Ben...



Seeing how close the two were, the owner adopted Tim, and for the next six years, Tim and Ben were inseparable.



In their daily interactions, Tim seems to have grown into Ben:

For Tim, there's no need for a doghouse; Ben is its personal bed...



And the private sofa.



Where else can you find a place as comfortable, soft, and warm as Ben's?



Tim also often perches on Ben's head to increase his visual height...



Sometimes he would step on Ben's head to look at the food on the table or beg for food.



Even if Ben is trampled beyond recognition, he won't get angry and will happily let Tim trample on him.



Ben is still Tim's personal mount...



I would carry it out for walks and take it into the water to play.



The gentle giant doted on his little friend.



But as time went by, Ben grew old, his strength weakened, and his movements became slow.

Tim also noticed the change in his old friend, from his increasingly gentle movements as he climbed onto Ben, to eventually being unwilling to sleep on Ben at all...

It is content as long as it snuggles up to Ben.



At the end of last year, 13-and-a-half-year-old Ben, accompanied by his family and Tim, returned to the dog planet due to the worsening of his condition.



Tim, having lost his best friend, remained depressed...

When fans who had been following the friendship learned of this, they gifted Tim a giant plush toy dog.



The moment the owner placed the plush toy on the sofa, the scene at the beginning unfolded: Tim seemed to climb back onto Ben and quickly fell asleep peacefully.



With the plush toy by his side, Tim felt like he had found a new source of comfort. Even though Ben was gone, the warmth he brought Tim would continue to accompany him in another way.



Death is not the end, but you will always be in my heart.
