We love stories of inter-species affection, especially when it involves miraculous rescued animals!

Mu Shu, a cute little piglet was rescued by a Kansas woman when she saw her fly off a truck carrying livestock. Luckily, the woman avoided running over the adorable piglet and decided to turn around and pick her up from the side of the road, where she lay injured. The piglet suffered a bad concussion and blindness in one eye, but luckily the woman owned a vet hospital and managed to get Mu Shu some prompt medical assistance.

As if that wasn’t amazing enough, as Mu Shu started her recovery, the family dog Hunter became Mu Shu’s best friend and protector, keeping her company and out of harms way as she fought her way back to good health.

MyFoxBoston reports that the family decided to adopt Mu Shu because she and Hunter are now completely inseparable!
