They say that every dog deserves a good home - and one rescue pooch is certainly settling in well with its new owners, after becoming best friends with a little toddler.
Rescue dog Nora and toddler Archie Spence, from Manitoba, Canada, are inseparable - with dozens of photographs shared onlineshowing them cuddling up to one another, the Daily Mail reports.
In fact, the English pointer is terrified of "almost everything" after being abused by a former owner - making his friendship with Archie even more remarkable.
She adopted the pooch seven years ago, before she had children, but describes how Nora has found a best friend in Archie.
Speaking to the Dodo, she explained: "Archie is an extremely laid-back, happy, good-natured baby and all the animals seem to really respond to that, particularly Nora.
"She came from an abusive background and is afraid of almost everything. Not Archie, though. She absolutely adores him!"
Elizabeth described how the pair do everything together, adding: "If Archie is having a bath, Nora is lying on the bath mat waiting for him to get out."
