Raina, a female Rhodesian ridgeback puppy, showed her dedication to her perhaps unlikely best friend, a male cheetah cub named Ruuxa, when Ruuxa underwent surgery on his legs.
Raina waits anxiously as her friend, Ruuxa the cheetah, undergoes surgery on his legs.
Ruuxa’s legs were growing abnormally, which would have caused pain as he grew older and impair his ability to walk–pretty major if you’re a cheetah.

She traveled with him from surgery prep through the operation, and was there to greet Ruuxa when he awoke–looking understandably groggy.
