Not long ago, in Ohio’s Cincinnati Zoo, a request was made for an Australian shepherd dog by the name of Blakely to step in and look after three tiger cubs.

On the third of March, a litter of three tiger cubs were welcomed into the world at the Cincinnati Zoo. From that moment on, the dedicated staff at the zoo have taken on the responsibility of caring for these adorable creatures. They have been diligently feeding the cubs and even enlisted the help of a friendly dog named Blakely to keep them warm and play with them.

Three young Malayan tigers were born.

An adorable little tiger cub is seen in this heartwarming video giving a warm and affectionate hug to an elderly furry friend that is most likely a dog. The cute pair make an unlikely friendship, and the sweet moment captured on camera is sure to melt your heart. It’s always amazing to see different animals showing each other love and compassion, regardless of their size or species. This video is a reminder that love knows no bounds, and it can be shared in the most unexpected ways.

Zookeepers have revealed that while they are capable of feeding cubs, they do not possess the ability to impart valuable lessons about the animal kingdom like Blakely does.

As per the Cincinnati Zoo, Blake has played a significant role in nurturing and taking care of different animals just like this adorable bat-eared fox.
