An impaws-ible friendship: Young photographer captures the heartwarming bond between her pet duck and German Shepherd

  • Since day One, Duck Lemony and German Shepherd Vendetta the best of friends
  • The duck and dog do everything together, from naps to swimming to cuddles
  • Are so inseparable that owner Natasha decided to make a photo series on them 
Sometimes the most beautiful friendships are the ones you don't expect. 
Natasha, a 18 year-old French photographer, has captured the wholesome bond between her German Shepherd Vendetta, three, and her one-year-old Indian runner duck Lemony
The two animals have been pals since 2018, when Lemony, then a duckling, joined Natasha's family farm. The little duckling quickly took to following the massive dog around. 
The dog and the duck play and nap together and will cuddle and go for swims. They are sometimes joined by Natasha's pigeon Pilgrim and Grisella.
