Doggy just adores the baby ducklings and cares for them like an angel

Whether a lap dog or a huge guardian, these adorable creatures are curious by nature, they enjoy looking out the window, or outside your home.

Observing their surroundings provides the dog with great entertainment, and helps them manage stress, especially for animals that live in apartments with little opportunity for sufficient physical exercise.

Doggy seems fascinated by the baby ducklings that have arrived at the farm where he lives.

While we have heard some stories of furry dogs who enjoy contemplating the outside world either through the window or sitting in front of the sea, there are also those dogs who love to contemplate other animals.

This is the story of Neptune, a beautiful German Shepherd who has won the hearts of everyone in his neighborhood in St Martin’s, Scotland.

Neptune is a beautiful German Shepherd who loves to share with the smaller animals on the farm.

From the first moment he arrived at his new home, this adorable fluffy ball of fur showed a certain fascination for children and animals smaller than him.



Since he was just a puppy he spends most of his time sharing with the chickens, ducks and cats on his family’s farm.

Since the ducklings were born, this beautiful ball of fur spends the whole day watching them.

Αlthough these little animals are part of her daily life, she has recently shown a special attachment to a litter of ducklings. These tiny birds, apparently conquered the little dog’s heart and managed to get his undivided attention in a way that no other animal on the farm has ever done before.

Neptune seems to succumb to the charms of the ducklings, watching them tenderly and caring for them as if he were their main and only guardian angel.

The ducklings play with each other while the little dog seems to melt at such tenderness.



The little dog contemplates one of the most adorable scenes he has ever seen. He lies on one side on the cold, muddy floor as he watches the ducklings play in a puddle.

He watches them with infinite tenderness but also seems to act as a protective guardian before the baby ducklings. However, his fascination with these little ones seems to be greater and at one point we get the impression that he seems to faint at such tenderness.

This little dog just can’t get enough of the new ducklings.

Neptune watches the ducklings so attentively that even at one moment he seems to be overwhelmed by all the new emotions he is experiencing, he looks at them, contemplates them, stands up, then seems to faint again without taking his eyes off them.



He acts as if he is mesmerized by the ducklings, he doesn’t mind the discomfort of the wet, muddy ground as long as he can keep looking at them.

Fortunately, his adoptive parents managed to capture the touching scene and share it on social media. It didn’t take long for netizens from all over the world to react and leave their comments. Some of the most popular ones read:

“So cute Neptune! Α little dog who loves to take care of the ducklings.”

– “Αmazing the bond the shepherd has made with the ducklings – how cool!”

– “Αnimals are so wonderful, I love this!”

German Shepherds are protective by nature and Neptune is a prime example. While, many doggies tend to act much more energetic around smaller critters, our adorable protagonist has a serene and gentle demeanor.



This ball of fur enjoys contemplating the simple things in life. What a joy for his family to have such a tender and sensitive little animal.
