This may just be the cutest thing you see all day.
After their mother was attacked by a dog in Brazil, four baby possums were left orphaned and alone.
That is, until they were found by a dog trainer, Stephanie Maldonado, who wanted to nurse them back to health. They were so young they hadn’t yet opened their eyes.
Turns out, all the little joeys needed was Stephanie’s dog, Pretinha.
The possums took an immediate liking to Pretinha and got stronger by the day until they could climb on her back!
Stephanie wrote on Facebook: “It’s very nice to see all the care that she has with them, licking them all the time and nestling them.”
When the joeys are old enough, Stephanie will likely return them to their natural habitat.
