Labrador 'Adopts' Abandoned Duckling After Mother is Killed by Fox
Did they meet down the dog and duck?
Well, not quite.
A bizarre friendship has been struck up by a Labrador and a duckling after the tiny waterbird was found abandoned when its mother was killed by a fox.
Dennis the duckling was just a few days old when its mother was mauled by a vixen.
Somehow Dennis survived the attack and would have perished had it not been found next to a brook by Jeremy Goldsmith while out with his dog Fred.
