Dogs are known for being highly loveable creatures that also tend to be very eager to socialize. Elephants are known for their advanced intelligence. Similar to dogs, they enjoy socializing with a wide variety of animals and people. While these two animals have vastly different sizes, their personalities are very similar, making it natural for them to get along.

There are many elephant sanctuaries throughout the world. These sanctuaries allow elderly elephants to live out their lives in a peaceful environment with other elephants. A particular sanctuary in Tennessee has around 10 elderly female elephants living there. Most of these elephants have developed friendships with a certain special companion.

One particular elephant, named Tara, has become best friends with a small dog named Bella. The two spend most of the day together. They play in the sanctuary and roam the 1,800-acre sanctuary together.

Unfortunately, Bella suffered from a back injury recently. She received care in a treatment facility in the sanctuary and was away from her special elephant friend for several weeks. Instead of roaming the sanctuary as normal, Tara spent nearly 3 weeks waiting outside the treatment centre for Bella to get better

After those three weeks, Bella emerged healthy and the two were delighted to play together again!
