Dog of the Week: Shar Pei Puppy Plays with Tiger Cub

Posted by

Tiger cub and Shar Pei puppy

Here’s another inspiring story that features just how accepting and generous dogs can be. Siberian tigers are becoming increasingly endangered due to the destruction of their habitats. Last week, when a cub was born to a siberian tigress in Russia, zookeepers were ecstatic until they realized the mother was refusing the feed the cub. Luckily, a near by family owned a Shar Pei dog that just had a litter of puppies. The Shar Pei mother was able to nurse the baby cub to health without a hitch. Surprisingly, the Shar Pei puppies got along swimmingly with the tiger cub.

Enjoy these adorable photos of the tiger cubs and puppies playing together, napping together and enjoying each other’s company.
