Among all the stories about animals, few are as touching as this one — a mother deer who brought her newborn fawns to meet her best friend, a golden retriever she’d known for more than a decade.
Their bond began eleven years ago when a woman named Lorrie found an orphaned fawn near her property. Unsure how to care for her, Lorrie sought help from a friend experienced in wildlife rescue. That’s how Buttons, the deer, entered the family — and how she met G-Bro, Lorrie’s golden retriever.
At first, G-Bro didn’t know what to make of the fragile little animal. But soon, he learned to be gentle, treating her with curiosity and care. What started as cautious sniffing turned into an unbreakable friendship. Buttons became part of the household, following G-Bro everywhere — sleeping, playing, and even sharing food.
When she was old enough, Buttons was released back into the wild. But she never really left. She began visiting the house almost every day, waiting at the front door until someone let her in. Sometimes, she even tapped her hoof like she was knocking — just to see her old friend.

Years later, Buttons surprised everyone when she returned — not alone, but with two newborn fawns by her side. It was as if she wanted to introduce her babies to G-Bro, the dog who once protected her.
The golden retriever’s excitement was obvious. He wagged his tail, licked the fawns, and stayed close to them as if taking on the role of a proud stepdad. The gentle dog played with them carefully, guarding them just like he had done for Buttons years ago.
Even now, Buttons continues to visit her old family, walking right into the house like she never left. Her story is living proof that animals remember love — and never forget the ones who cared for them.
